Drumroll, Please! The 2019 Gerber Baby Is Here, and She's Just Adorable
Every single year we wait in earnest to catch a glimpse of Gerber's annual spokesbaby. After all, we can't really imagine a cuter honor. And this year, the award for the 2019 Gerber Baby goes to Kairi Yang, a 15-month-old girl from Hickory, NC. She impressively beat out 544,000 other contestants, ranging from a few months old through age 4 for the yearly title.
"As soon as we saw her photo, we fell in love with Kairi's expressive eyes and angelic face, looking toward the future and being excited for all that it holds," said Bill Partyka, the president and CEO of Gerber, in a press release. "We believe that every baby is a Gerber baby, and this year, are thrilled to recognize Kairi as the new face of Gerber. It's been an incredible year celebrating our 2018 Spokesbaby Lucas Warren and his family, and we are excited to see the world fall in love all over again with our newest Spokesbaby."
And Kairi's parents, Ying Vue and Peter Yang - who are Hmong, an ethnic group with roots in both China and Southeast Asia - only had to walk a few steps to share the good news as the pair live with their parents, cousins, aunts, and uncles. "Hmong in our eyes is all about the close bonds we have with our relatives during life and afterlife," Ying told Today.
"When we first found out Kairi won, we were speechless and couldn't believe it. We are beyond thrilled that our sweet Kairi is Gerber's 2019 Spokesbaby," said Kairi's mom, Ying Vue. "Kairi's personality is larger than life, and she always maintains a spunky attitude. We hope Kairi's one-of-a-kind, entertaining personality and vibrant facial expressions radiate positivity around the world, just like she does in our home every single day!"
