Even in doll form, Derek Zoolander is really, really, ridiculously good-looking.

In honor of the film's sequel, Ben Stiller's male model alter-ego has been turned into a Barbie, making cameos on the Barbie Style Instagram account.

In a variety of custom-made doll-size outfits, the beloved character is seem working out, shopping, and chowing down on salad - all with a permanent Blue Steel impression.

Pop culture promo: Derek Zoolander has been popping up the Barbie Style Instagram account this week

Hansel, Hansel, Hansel! The two have been out and about in Los Angeles, and even met up with Owen Wilson's character Hansel at Pressed Juicery in Santa Monica

Classic Zoolander: While shopping with Barbie, Zoolander tells her to pick bag A or B, because he's not good with numbers

Gearing up: The sequel to the popular 2001 film will be released in the US next weekend

But why a male model? We just told you a moment ago - because Zoolander 2 hits theaters next weekend.

To promote the film, the popular Barbie Style Instagram account - which sees the blonde doll rocking amazing one-of-a-kind outfits and attending actual Hollywood events - has invited a mini Derek out on the town for the week.

On Monday, he hopped into Barbie's convertible, wearing gold lamé pants and a matching lamé-trimmed leather jacket.

'Picked up my friend Derek and we’re having an LA staycation this week,' Barbie captioned the picture, which was reminiscent of a scene from the first film in which Derek takes his male model friends out for orange mocha Frappuccinos in his Jeep.

He can't turn left! Zoolander even challenges Barbie's boyfriend Ken to a walk-off - which they perform in matching sweats

Male models do it better: The photo mirrored a scene from the original film, in which Derek competes against his then-rival Hansel

Memories: In the movie, the walk-off was officiated by the late David Bowie, who made a quick cameo

Don't break a sweat: The Zoolander doll also hits up Soul Cycle with Barbie, wearing an incredibly impractical shiny silver sweatsuit

They next drove to a clothing store in Malibu, where Zoolander is posed holding up a pair of purses for Barbie to choose from.

'Barbie, do you want to wear bag one, or bag two? Pick one B, you know I don’t like numbers!' the adorable picture is captioned.

They finished the evening at Craig's Restaurant, a West Hollywood hotspot where stars like Ashley Benson, Chrissy Teigen and John Legend, Demi Lovato, Hailey Baldwin, Jessica Alba, and the Kardashian and Jenner clan like to dine.

On Tuesday, Barbie even copied Zoolander's signature Blue Steel look, with the team behind the Instagram account making a custom doll with duck face and an arched eyebrow.

Wake us up, before you go-go! The two kicked off the 'staycation' week in Barbie's convertible

Uh-oh: Luckily, their ride ended better than one Zoolander took with his male model friends in the first movie; they all died in a gas station explosion

LOL this is gr8: Barbie captioned this photo at Craig's Restaurant: 'Zoolander usually doesn’t do his own texting, but how else would we communicate over dinner'

The directions are IN the computer! When they had to meet up at Paramount Pictures studios, Derek got confused and had to 'Googly' directions

'Posing lessons from the world’s most famous male model. So @Zoolander, how’s my #BlueSteel?' the photo, which saw the duo posing for a selfie, was captioned.

From there, Derek - whose hair is perfectly blown-out in every shot - headed with Barbie to Paramount Studios, where he need to 'Googly' directions to the studio.

They also grabbed some food at A.O.C. - another Kardashian favorite - and were joined by a 'Valentina' doll, modeled off of Penelope Cruz's character in the sequel.

The doll even got a custom white trench coat to look like the one Penelope sports in the upcoming film.

So full: They were also joined by a doll version of Penelope Cruz's character Valentina for lunch, where Zoolander just ate salad

Attention to detail: The creators of the account even made a lookalike white trench coat for the Valentina toll, just like Penelope wears in the upcoming film

On the table, Barbie can be seen eating some avocado toast, while Zoolander has clearly opted for a plate full of just lettuce.

Today started out with a bit more action, seeing Zoolander challenge a Ken doll to a walk-off. Unfortunately, the late David Bowie - who officiated the match in the first film - wasn't around to do the honors this time.

After the competition, Barbie and Derek headed to SoulCycle before catching up with Hansel - played in the films by Owen Wilson - at Pressed Juicery.
