Pop Star Zombie Dolls

'Zomby Gaga' is a New Monster High Character by Lady Gaga

— October 19, 2016 — Life-Stages
Alongside Draculaura, Frankie Stein and Clawdeen Wolf is a new Monster High character by the name of 'Zomby Gaga.'

Zomby Gaga is a creation for Mattel by Lady Gaga (Stefani Germanotta) and her sister Natali Germanotta, representing the pop star's Born This Way Foundation. As well as adding a fun new character to the monstrous collection of dolls, Zomby Gaga is meant to be a symbol of kindness, bravery and celebrating what makes each and every individual unique. As with all of the Monster High dolls, Zomby Gaga has a "Monster Quirk," which describes: "Even when I feel sad and alone, I can't hide who I truly am. And I wouldn't have it any other way because—like the real you—the real me is brave, strong and BORN THIS WAY."

The Zomby Gaga doll is part of a shift in the way that toys are being designed and marketed—especially towards impressionable young girls—with a focus on confidence and empowerment rather than just style and beauty.
Trend Themes
1. Empowering Toys - The Zomby Gaga doll is a prime example of the shift towards toys that focus on confidence and empowerment for young girls.
2. Celebrating Individuality - Zomby Gaga represents a larger trend of celebrating what makes each individual unique, paving the way for more inclusive and diverse toy options.
3. Pop Star Collaborations - The collaboration between Lady Gaga and Mattel opens up opportunities for more partnerships between pop stars and toy companies to create unique characters and dolls.
Industry Implications
1. Toy Manufacturing - The shift towards empowering toys presents an opportunity for toy manufacturers to develop more diverse and inclusive products that promote confidence and self-expression.
2. Entertainment Merchandise - The Zomby Gaga doll highlights the potential for the entertainment industry to create merchandise collaborations that appeal to a wider audience and promote positive values.
3. Children's Education - The focus on celebrating individuality with the Zomby Gaga doll can inspire educational institutions and organizations to develop programs that foster self-acceptance and empowerment in young children.
