Oscar-winning actress Tan Sri Michelle Yeoh has become the latest Malaysian celebrity to hop on the Labubu craze.

In an Instagram post, Yeoh – who turned 63 on Aug 6 – shared several photos of herself posing with a limited-edition Labubu doll featuring Hong Kong’s beloved panda twins Jia Jia and De De.

In other shots, she was seen holding the doll alongside her Wicked co-stars – American actor Jeff Goldblum and British singer-actress Cynthia Erivo.

“Celebrating Hong Kong born Panda Twins first birthday (and my birthday too) with Labubu in the Hollywood Bowl,” she captioned her post.

In a separate post, Yeoh also revealed that she had received a personalised illustration from Labubu creator Kasing Lung – a drawing of the sharp-toothed toy wishing her a happy birthday.

“Thank you Kasing Lung. Hope to meet you one day soon,” she wrote.

According to the South China Morning Post, Yeoh is one of several international celebrities who received the limited-edition Labubu doll.

Other stars who received the toy include renowned Hong Kong actor Tony Leung Chiu Wai and his wife Carina Lau.

The initiative is part of a collaboration between Hong Kong’s Culture, Sports and Tourism Bureau and Lung to celebrate the panda twins’ first birthday on Aug 15 and promote the city.
