Madonna Flaunts Pop Mart Labubu Gifts for Mother’s Day
Madonna gave Mother’s Day a designer-toy twist, pairing her polka-dot slip with two Labubu × Sanrio sling pouches—Cinnamoroll in white and My Melody in pink—gifted by LA collectible haven Donnie’s Exchange.

Madonna’s annual Mother’s Day carousel already had horseback-riding pics and the usual family chaos, but eagle-eyed toy nerds spotted one extra guest on the table: a few pastel Labubu collectibles. The pop icon tagged Los Angeles toy boutique Donnie’s Exchange, and the shop’s crew promptly freaked out, calling the shout-out “an absolute dream.”
According to a separate post from a Donnie’s team member, they’d “sent the queen herself @madonna Labubus just in time for Mother’s Day” — mission accomplished.
The cameo caps a weekend Madonna spent with five of her six kids, which she summed up as “Sunshine, laughter, horseback-riding, soccer, and the sound of music.”
Why it matters for Pop Mart watchers
Celebrity seal of approval. Labubu has already been spotted with Rihanna and BLACKPINK’s Lisa; Madonna’s post pushes the figure even further into mainstream pop culture.
LA retail spotlight. Donnie’s Exchange only opened its DTLA storefront this spring, and a Madonna tag on Mother’s Day is the kind of overnight visibility money can’t buy.
Macaron vibes? Fans think the figure in Madonna’s photo is the pastel “Macaron” variant, which sold out at Donnie’s opening and is already trading north of $60 on resale apps.
Bottom line: A single Instagram tag just gave Pop Mart’s star monster a prime-time placement on Madonna’s grid — and turned a small LA specialty shop into the day’s biggest winner.
