Famed British actress Helen Mirren is the latest celeb immortalized in wax by Madam Tussaud’s Wax Musuem. Mirren was on hand for an in-person appearance at Madam Tussaud’s in London, England this week for the unveiling of the wax effigy created in her honor. I have to say, I love me some Helen Mirren but … this is one of those rare occasions where the wax statue kinda looks better than the real person:
Helen Mirren’s famous name in showbiz has been honored with a wax figure at Madame Tussauds in London, England. On Tuesday, May 11, the actress has revealed the replica of her for the first time, accompanied by her director husband Taylor Hackford. Wearing a red dress, the 64-year-old beauty poses next to the art work which is dressed in a long black gown. Taylor later joins her to admire the wax figure and lands a kiss on the cheek of the replica while Helen acts like she is angry to him. Helen Mirren was recently named one of the most beautiful women in the world on the list compiled by Wizard Jeans. She secured the sixth position, while the top spot was snatched by Spanish beauty Penelope Cruz.
Kudos to the artisans at Madame Tussaud’s because they have truly outdone themselves this time. Helen is a beautiful women, I really love her entirely … but this wax statue is really damn good. When I first found the photos, I thought the Helen in the black dress was the real Helen. We’ve seen some funky wax statues before but this one has to be among the best ever. What do y’all think … is this a wax statue worth of representing Helen Mirren?
