Bratz Releases First-Ever Same-Sex Couple Dolls for Pride
Bratz is recognizing its queer fans, and celebrating self-expression, self-love, and the LGBTQ+ community by releasing the first-ever set of fashion dolls sold as a same-sex couple!The all-new Pride collection is inspired by beloved Bratz characters and girlfriends Roxxi and Nevra, who came out as a couple for Pride 2020.
Roxxi came out as a lesbian, and Nevra came out as bisexual in a post made on Bratz social media. Roxxi was first introduced in 2004 as the lead singer of the bands Crash and Rock Angelz, starring in the movie, album, and video game Bratz Rock Angelz.
Nevra was introduced a year before Roxxi. Now, they’ll be sold together as a couple, all dressed up for a date out to Stilesville Pride, for the first time.“We are so excited to introduce this collection because so many of the fans who made Bratz what it is are part of the LGBTQ+ community and this is a way to honor them,” Jasmin Larian, Bratz Creative Director and daughter of MGA Entertainment’s Founder and CEO, Isaac Larian said in a release.
In addition to releasing these instantly-iconic dolls, MGA Cares, the charitable arm of MGA Entertainment, is donating $25,000 to The Trevor Project.The dolls are styled by famous LGBTQ+ designer Jimmy Paul, who not only combined JimmyPaul’s own vibrant flair and Bratz signature style, but also drew inspiration from the 1960s when the LGBTQ+ movement was gaining momentum and getting national attention.
