Three Madonnas at Madame Tussauds London
World famous Madame Tussauds London today revealed a brand new wax figure inspired by the Madonna’s iconic “Vogue” number of the MDNA Tour. The new figure is joined for three weeks only by two more new wax incarnations of the Queen of Pop in the “Candy Shop” outfit from the Sticky & Sweet Tour and the 1984 MTv “Like a Virgin” style.
These two figures will then head to Japan where they will take up residence at the new Madame Tussauds Tokyo in March next year.
“This is a first time we have ever launched three different figures of one performer here at Madame Tussauds London, so it’s a very special event,” PR Manager, Nicole Fenner said.
“We are very lucky to be able to bring together these three extremely striking portrayals of one of the most influential and iconic contemporary music artists of all time and we know fans are going to relish the opportunity to meet not one but three Madonnas. But our two Japanese bound figures will be with us only until Thursday January 3, so those who want to see her in triplicate should make plans to do so now!”
Madame Tussauds Studios London has been making wax figures for over 150 years, each masterpiece taking four months and a team of 20 dedicated sculptors to create.
Over 500 precise body measurements are referenced, real head hairs are inserted one by one, and countless layers of paints and tints are applied to build up skin tones – all to achieve the kind of astonishing realism that has kept Madame Tussauds world renowned for over two centuries.
Prices to Madame Tussauds are from £15 for adults and children (4-15 inclusive) when you pre-book at www.madametussauds.com/london.
