It appears EXO member Kai has snagged himself a cosmetics deal! The idol is reported to be Bobbi Brown's first-ever male muse.
On October 12, Monday, the editor-in-chief of 1st Look Magazine, Kim Yoon Hee, shared a photo on her Instagram featuring her alongside EXO's Kai. In the post, Kim Yoon Hee is seen posing with Kai, who is holding a cake and a bouquet of flowers. The post has since been deleted. As her post was deleted, her face has been censored to protect her identity.
The cake reads, "Kai x Bobbi Brown" and "Congratulations on becoming Bobbi's first male muse", essentially confirming that Kai will become the first male muse of the internationally famous cosmetics brand. However, no official statement from Bobbi Brown nor SM Entertainment has been made.
Fans have been excitedly supporting Kai on his cosmetics deals, with fans creating the hashtag #KAIxBOBBIBROWN on Twitter in which they congratulate the idol and explain why he deserves this cosmetics deal.
This is not the first brand Kai will be the face of. In 2019, Kai was named the first Gucci Brand Ambassador. It is currently his second year holding the title. It has been reported that Kai was chosen as the first-ever Korean global ambassador for Gucci because of his incredible fashion choices that no one call pull off as well as him.
