Apart from the Lababu dolls themselves, various takes on them are going viral on social media. For instance, we recently came across a Labubu 'doll' made with broccoli. A reel featuring the same being seasoned and grilled has grabbed many eyeballs on Instagram. The video shared by @ziyu7002 shows what seems to be an edible version of this trending toy. Pieces of broccoli are used to recreate the "furry" exterior, while other ingredients have been used for its distinctive face, ears and limbs. The Labubu is pierced with a skewer. The clip shows it being topped with some kind of powdered seasoning on both sides before being apparently cooked over a grill.

In the comments, many people came up with different names for this Broccoli Lababu creation. Examples include "Brocobubu," "Brocolulu," "Vegtabubu," "Labubrukuli," and "Labrobro." Some loved this foodie version of the doll, while others took it to be a representation of their dislike of the trend:
"This looks demonic."
"I would have loved my veggies if I had that as a kid."
"That is what I will do if I find it in front of me."
"I wish I could do this to every labubu in the whole world."
"Omg I love this!!! It looks Labubuliscious!"
"Yes, roast the devil."
"Poor things, now they can be eaten."
"What's wrong, babe? You haven't touched your labubrocolli."
The trending Labubu doll is based on a character created by artist Kasing Lung. Currently, they are sold exclusively by China-based retailer Pop Mart. The global obsession for these toys recently made the retailer's founder, Wang Ning, the 10th richest billionaire in China.

‘It Was Messy': J-Hope Recalls BTS' Early Trainee Days
J-Hope shared how he taught a few things to the fellow members after joining BTS as a trainee in 2010. Anticipations are running high for the reunion of the beloved K-pop boy band BTS. Now that the members have completed their mandatory military duties and have returned to their normal lives, fans couldn't be more excited as they look forward to a grand return. BTS, which is celebrating its 12th anniversary this year, marked its last performance in 2022. Amid the excitement, J-Hope recently opened up about his early days in the group, leaving ARMYs nostalgic. In a conversation with Teen Vogue, J-Hope also spoke about his firsts, such as his first audition and first music video after returning from the military. 'I danced to Miguel's music for my first audition and created a choreography to Miguel's Sure Thing. So when I got to collaborate with Miguel recently, it felt very special, and it was an honour for me. I think auditions are all pretty much the same. It was bittersweet. While you feel a sense of relief that it's finally over, you also feel disappointed about the moments where you could've done better," J-Hope shared about his first audition. The BTS rapper went on to spill beans about his first days as a trainee with the group, revealing some unknown anecdotes. 'When I was a trainee, the first day was December 24, 2010, on Christmas Eve. I came to Seoul and went straight to the place where I was going to live with my members at the time. I had fantasised about being a trainee and expected everything to be neat and well-structured. But when I got there, it was actually very messy. That made it feel more real and human. 'Wow, this is where I'll be starting my life as a trainee,' that thought settled in. That first day was about cleaning up the mess around me," he shared. The BTS star recalled teaching dance to his fellow members. 'It's different for every member. I didn't teach dance to all the members from the start. For example, when Jung Kook first arrived, I taught him the rules of our shared dorm, and the same with V. For Jimin, I met him at the bus stop when he arrived in Seoul from Busan for the first time. I told him about what it's like to be a trainee together. For Jin, I can't really teach him the rules as he is older than me," he continued.

Miguel). First Published: July 03, 2025, 12:12 IST

Government sources have now clarified that Pakistani accounts reappeared in India due to a 'technical glitch' and not because of some policy change read more On July 2, the Instagram accounts Pakistani celebrities, including Mahira Khan and Hania Aamir, briefly became visible to Indian users. The ban on social media accounts of several Pakistani celebrities was reinstated on Thursday (July 3) after heavy backlash on social media. It was reported on Wednesday that social media accounts of Pakistani celebrities started appearing in India, weeks after they were blocked during the recent India-Pak military standoff.

When users search for these accounts, a pop-up error shows this message: 'Account not available in India. This is because we complied with a legal request to restrict this content.' Government sources blame 'technical glitch' Government sources have now clarified that the accounts reappeared in India due to a 'technical glitch' and not because of some policy change. The sources said some accounts may still be visible but those too should become inaccessible within few hours as the 'glitch' has been rectified. It is to be noted that the government of India, on May 8, issued an advisory under Part II of the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) to immediately discontinue web series, films, songs, and other media content originating from Pakistan. The advisory said the move was taken to address concerns regarding India's sovereignty, national security, public order, and integrity. According to sources, over 18,000 Pakistani social media accounts have been withheld in India. This includes accounts of celebrities, media companies and entertainment workers. Huge backlash in India The reappearance of Pakistani social media handles triggered a huge backlash in India. The All Indian Cine Workers Association (AICWA) also criticised the move, calling it an 'insult' to families affected by cross-border terrorism. STORY CONTINUES BELOW THIS AD In a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the AICWA renewed its call for a total digital blackout, a ban on future collaborations, and a permanent cultural disconnection with Pakistan.
