Brandy's Barbie Doll Has an Instagram – And It’s Pure Fire

Superfan and photographer Tyren Redd outdid himself with this one.

Way before Ava DuVernay and Zendaya were immortalized by Mattel, did you know that Zoe Ever After's Brandy Norwood was too?

In 1999, during Brandy’s Moesha fame, Mattel launched a Brandy Barbie and some two decades later, one of the singer and actress’s super fans has created an Instagram account for the doll. And there’s a reason why it has more than 11,000 followers: because it’s straight FIYAH.

Created by photographer and model Tyren Redd, the 4everbarbiebrandy profile page captures almost 70 images of the Brandy doll in almost every stage of the celeb’s life, Moesha and beyond, with the dopest hair and the flyest outfits.

“I'm so floored that my doll was reincarnated through the creative imagination of one of my most loyal stars, Tyren Redd. All the love that is shown to my doll and her Instagram page is greatly appreciated, and at the same time, shocking,” she recently told ET Online.

This kind of celebration of #BlackGirlMagic is crucial and all we can say is please keep it coming!
