New dolls inspired by influencer Addison Rae have divided TikTok, with some liking the figures made in Addison’s image, and others claiming they look “nothing alike.”

21-year-old Addison Rae is one of TikTok’s biggest stars, with over 88 million followers on her account where she posts videos doing popular dances and participating in viral trends.

On June 29, TikTok user mexican.ken uploaded a video to the app showing two dolls inspired by Addison Rae that they found at Walmart, by the brand Bonkers Toys.

One of the dolls is a “look inspired by body positivity,” with the statement on the back reading: “One of Addison’s major initiatives is supporting body positivity, and addressing some of the ways that body image influences mental health and well-being. Having a healthy body image plays a role in how people feel about their appearance and even how they judge their self-worth.”

However, commenters were divided by the dolls, with many saying that they didn’t think they looked like the influencer at all.

“I’m terrified,” said one comment with nearly 150 likes, another reading: “They look nothing alike.” One user described the dolls as “super creepy,” with someone else adding, “bro what is that?”

Other commenters had a more positive reaction to the dolls, however, with one user remarking, “I want them!” Another added, “What y’all talking about it looks just like her lmao.”

Although Addison first blew up on TikTok a few years ago in 2019, she is still one of the most popular creators on the platform, and is currently the fourth most followed on the app.

She still continues to go viral on the platform with her short videos, and in June she garnered almost 6 million likes for participating in a popular handstand challenge.
