Some of you may have heard of AliExpress, but you have definitely heard of a Labubu. If you haven't, we'll assume you live under a rock.
AliExpress is an international online retail marketplace where customers can shop a whole host of products from a plethora of brands. Adding to its extensive list of commercial partners is Pop Mart, which only means one thing – AliExpress will be your go-to to secure new editions of the viral Labubu characters.
In recent months we have heard (and seen) the hype around the devilish faced furry Labubu. The Monsters collection – created by illustrator Kasing Lung – has taken social media by storm and caused an absolute frenzy. Originally brought to life in illustrated books and later produced as miniature collectibles, the dolls now appear in a variety of formats, including plush toys and keychains.
The mystery-packaged figures, which are sold in blind boxes so the colour is a surprise to the shopper, is said to have gone viral because of former Love Island contestant-turned-presenter-come-podcast-host Olivia Attwood's obsession, though David Becham, Dua Lipa and Rihanna have been spotted with what we consider looks like a miniature gremlin on their bags.
The hype around Labubu has seen hordes of people flock to Harrods in a bid to get their hands on a Labubu. The demand for Labubu's has also been evident on AliExpress, which has seen a rise in searches for the trending toy in the last two weeks alone.
Now, you won't have to queue for hours in a bid to get a Labubu, as you can shop the viral sensation online through the official Pop Mart store on AliExpress, including hotly anticipated new editions of the Labubu characters.
Alongside the Pop Mart shop, AliExpress is also launching an unmissable Summer Sale, which will run from June 16 to June 25. More Trending
The 10-day sale will enable customers to shop to their heart's content, save more on exclusive deals, and secure free shipping as well as free returns.
Just when you thought you'd heard it all, AliExpress is also set to run a live stream directly from Pop Mart's theme park Popland, in Beijing, via the AliExpress app, as well as TikTok, on June 17 to honour the sale and to introduce the range of Pop Mart products to shop – including said new Labubu's.
Safe to say AliExpress really is spoiling us.

Major Coronation Street exit confirmed as star leaves after 2 years
Coronation Street viewers waved off Bobby Crawford (Jack Carroll) last month when he headed off to visit Simon Barlow – unaware that these would be his final scenes. Bobby first arrived on the cobbles in late 2023 and announced to Carla Connor (Alison King) that he was Rob Donovan's son. Carla took her nephew in and gave him a roof over his head, and supported him when he found out the true extent of Rob's crimes. However, she was left feeling betrayed when she found out that Bobby planned to help Rob escape police after he had kidnapped her, and ordered him to move out. When Bobby was later accused of being Lauren Bolton's (Cait Fitton) blackmailer, he decided to visit Simon abroad, which is where he has now chosen to stay for the foreseeable future. Metro understands that Bobby's exit from the street is a permanent one, though the door is still open for him to return in future. More Trending Jack is one of several Coronation Street actors to have left the show so far this year. Most recently, Sue Cleaver left her role as Eileen Grimshaw, with the character jetting off to Thailand following the death of sister Julie Carp. Characters Mason Radcliffe and Craig Tinker were also killed off this year, while Max Turner and Daisy Midgeley also left.

Madonna slammed for controversial behaviour during Broadway musical
A Broadway star has slammed Madonna for her behaviour in the audience while she attended a Hamilton performance a decade ago. The Hung Up singer, 66, has been criticised in a new interview by actor Anthony Ramos, 33, who starred in the original 2015 cast of Hamilton. Anthony played the dual role of John Laurens and Phillip Hamilton in the hit Broadway musical, created and written by Oscar nominee Lin-Manuel Miranda. In the play, Phillip, the titular character Alexander Hamilton's son, is tragically killed in a duel. It's one of the more emotional moments of the historical story. However, one audience member who was apparently unmoved during the show was the Queen of Pop herself, with Anthony calling her out in fresh comments. Speaking to Watch What Happens Live, the Broadway star revealed he was left feeling particularly unhappy by one aspect of the Hung Up hitmaker's behaviour. He was asked by the show's host Andy Cohen, 'Who was the most terrifying celebrity to spot in the audience during your Hamilton days?' and he didn't mince words. 'The most terrifying was Madonna with her iPad in her face. She was like this the whole time,' he replied, as he mimicked holding a tablet device in his hands. He continued: 'I was like, 'Damn, shorty. If you're not enjoying [the show] that much, you know the door's right there. You ain't gotta stay here.'' The tale drew awkward laughs from host Andy and a few members of the live studio audience, with Anthony's frank response catching a few people off guard. In 2015, Lin-Manuel himself tweeted: 'Tonight was the first time I asked stage management NOT to allow a celebrity (who was texting all through Act 2) backstage. No selfie for you.' Fans instantly began speculating as to who the celebrity could be, which resulted in Lin-Manuel taking the tweet down, and another tweet from someone in the audience only fuelled those fires further. Casey Erin Clark, a stage performer and singer, said: 'That time you want to smack Madonna upside the head for texting during the best show I've ever seen.' Jonathan Groff, 40, who played King George III, said he was not disappointed at all that Madonna had allegedly been disinvited from any backstage parties. 'That b***h was on her phone,' he said to Dot249. 'You couldn't miss it from the stage. It was a black void of the audience in front of us and her face there perfectly lit by the light of her iPhone.' More Trending Months after the incident, Jonathan insisted that the Die Another Day singer had been using her device 'through three quarters of the show'. At the time, Madonna's publicist stated to Us Weekly that the rumours about the Papa Don't Preach singer were not true: 'It's not true. She was invited backstage four different times. 'She texted post-show when they were doing their fundraising pitch. Madonna had already made a generous donation.' Metro has reached out to Madonna for comment. Got a story?
