Tacha reacts to Labubu toy

Amid the Labubu toy trend, Tacha took to her official Instagram page to speak about it. The reality show star and influencer heavily condemned the people spending money to buy the toy mostly out of peer pressure.

She advised these people, particularly the ones who are hungry among them, to spend their money on more beneficial things. Tacha said in part:

“Even the people that have not chop belleful are going to buy Labubu. You don’t even know where the Labubu toy originated from, but because of peer pressure. What peer pressure cannot do doesn’t exist. Do you even know what Labubu is? You never chop belleful you want to go and spend N200k on Labubu, a culture you don’t even understand. Check on your WhatsApp now, you have bills you have to pay, you’ve not gone to pay those people, but just because your friend is carrying Labubu, you too want to carry Labubu. What is Labubu? You can’t even spell it.”
