Because now, the South African hitmaker is the new face of her very own doll \u2014 to be specific, her very own Bratz doll.<\/p>\n<p>On July 27, the doll and media company, owned by MGA Entertainment, are officially debuting a figurine in the likeness of the artist, who said that getting the call was \u201ca moment I\u2019ll never forget.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ahead of the launch, Tyla hosted a meet-and-greet event at New York City\u2019s FAO Schwarz with fans who were lucky enough to get their hands on the collector\u2019s item a few days early (and in time for the release of her new album <em>A*Pop<\/em>). That\u2019s where the \u201cWater\u201d singer, 24, was not shy about telling PEOPLE how much of a Bratz fan she really was and is.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/people.com\/thmb\/WfGhkJrSQ9B9a5LO9awMklPY2Hk=\/fit-in\/1280x960\/Tyla-FAO-Schwarz-072726-0508342c07b9462f845b2bd6c43fc5b2.jpg\" alt=\"Bratz president and creative director Jasmin Larian Hekmat and Tyla at FAO Schwarz on July 24, 2026 in N.Y.C.Credit: Michael Simon\/Getty\" title=\"Jasmin Larian Hekmat, the President and Creative Director of Bratz, joins Tyla at the signing of Tyla's new Bratz doll at FAO Schwarz on July 24, 2026 in New York City\" \/><figcaption><i>Bratz president and creative director Jasmin Larian Hekmat and Tyla at FAO Schwarz on July 24, 2026 in N.Y.C.<br \/>Credit: Michael Simon\/Getty<\/i><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cI used to put on Bratz to fall asleep. It\u2019s just my comfort movie,\u201d said Tyla (the franchise released an animated TV series that premiered in 2005, in addition to multiple movies). She confidently added that the most Bratz-coded thing about her is \u201cgirl, everything. I\u2019m a fashionista.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The well-known characteristic of the Grammy winner is what heavily inspired the doll\u2019s design. The main look is a doll-size recreation of the custom sand-made Balmain gown she wore her <a href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/tyla-lifted-up-stairs-met-gala-2024-red-carpet-sand-balmain-dress-8644324\" data-component=\"link\" data-source=\"inlineLink\" data-type=\"internalLink\" data-ordinal=\"1\">Met Gala debut<\/a> in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe really wanted a look that stood the test of time, and people could immediately recognize as one of her major moments,\u201d shared Jasmin Larian Hekmat, creative director and president of Bratz and daughter of MGA Entertainment founder and CEO Isaac Larian.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we make a doll in someone\u2019s likeness, we really want them to feel like it\u2019s something that they\u2019ll remember forever,\u201d she continued, adding that she knew Tyla was a \u201cstar\u201d as soon as she saw her perform.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/people.com\/thmb\/DfskXoe2IYVnuzli53oquyTIJtI=\/fit-in\/640x480\/Tyla-FAO-Schwarz-02-072726-ed01574f805b4186ab437673b1849a56.jpg\" alt=\"Tyla posing with her Bratz doll during a fan event hosted at FAO SchwarzCredit: Michael Simon\/Getty\" title=\"yla is seen at the signing of her new Bratz doll at FAO Schwarz on July 24, 2026 in New York City. \" \/><figcaption><i>Tyla posing with her Bratz doll during a fan event hosted at FAO Schwarz<br \/>Credit: Michael Simon\/Getty<\/i><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In addition to the dress, Tyla\u2019s doll is unmistakably her with her signature beauty mark and braided hairstyle, which was \u201csuper hard to execute\u201d because it was done with \u201cactual braids attached to the rooting of the doll\u2019s head,\u201d said Larian Hekmat, who is also the mind and visionary behind the fashion brand Cult Gaia. The figurine\u2019s accessories include a concert-inspired outfit change, a mini vinyl of the <em>TYLA <\/em>album and a tiger as a nod to Tyla\u2019s fanbase.<\/p>\n<p>In past years, Bratz has also collaborated with Karol G and <a class=\"null\" href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/kylie-jenner-launches-bratz-dolls-7569166\" data-component=\"link\" data-source=\"inlineLink\" data-type=\"internalLink\" data-ordinal=\"1\" rel=\"null\">Kylie Jenner<\/a>, and when it comes to a celebrity ambassador, so to speak, Larian Hekmat said the secret is: \u201cWe always ask, are they doing something super cool, super different?
