Qai Qai, who was dubbed America's Most Important doll by the New York Times, went on sale exclusively on Amazon on October 15, just in time for the holidays.
The sidekick of Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian's 3-year-old Olympia has become an animated, internet sensation.
Read below to see the announcement from Serena Williams.
Qai Qai, the Instagram-famous doll that's never far from Serena Williams, Alexis Ohanian, and their daughter Olympia, is making her next big move. But this time, you don’t have to go to social media to keep up with her adventures—you can purchase your own Qai Qai on Amazon to create your own meme-worthy moments.
The announcement came October 15, and Serena Williams shared the news with her social media followers, in a long-awaited response to the question she said she gets all the time: “But where can I buy my own Qai Qai doll?”
“When we first opened @RealQaiQai's account on Instagram two years ago, it was just supposed to be an inside joke,” Serena Williams admitted. “But we've come to realize that Qai Qai could be the beginning of a new kind of toy story, and one that we're excited to help bring to life so our daughter and millions of other children can see and play with more toys that look like them.”

Dressed in her multi-layered pink and purple tutu, and her signature GOAT onesie, the Black baby doll that has gone to the Australia Open, Abu Dhabi, and even to the O office, is finally available to tag along with every child (or grown up) who needs the reminder to “boss up and dream big.”
What makes the doll truly special is how she becomes a symbol and reminder for encouragement and kindness. "She regularly lends her voice to social-minded messages around mental health, race, representation, female empowerment, anti-bullying and so much more," the toy maker said in a statement. Brought to life by the imagination of a young girl, the doll has managed to garner more than one million followers across social media platforms.
You can purchase Qai Qai on Amazon exclusively for $29.99.
