Adnan Zafar, famously known as Ken Doll, is currently one of the most-followed digital creators, with 3.5 million Instagram followers. In January 2026, Ken Doll made headlines on social media after posting a video praising Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz for her fashion sense while the country was facing difficulties such as the Gul Plaza incident and the displacement of residents due to attacks in KPK and Balochistan. His video was criticized by both the public and celebrities.
In May 2026, Ken Doll was given an opportunity by Huda Beauty for a perfume collaboration in the UK, especially after his controversy went internationally viral. Recently, he talked about his collaboration with Huda Kattan in BBC Urdu’s interview with Buraq Shabbir.
Talking about it, he said, “Faisalabad is the Manchester of Pakistan, so it wasn’t that difficult for me to reach London. They (Huda Beauty) texted me in a group, and when I woke up, there was a discussion going on. I was like, ‘What’s happening here?’ and they were like, ‘You are going to London with us. It’s a huge perfume launch, and you are representing Pakistan.’ I was invited from Pakistan because I never followed boundaries. I never thought that men were exempt from skincare and looking good. Their team was closely watching what I do. They had an eye on my controversies and everything. I came to know this after meeting them. She told me, ‘My whole team has been watching you.’ I am very thankful to the people who created controversies around me because they put me on an international platform.”
Talking about meeting Huda, he said, “It was an emotional meetup. I was about to cry. She loved me like a mother. She told me not to stop because what I am doing is very unique. I became a totally different person after her kind words.”
