America’s Next Top Wax Statue

They did a damn good job on this one
Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008

The Washington DC branch of the Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum chain has just unveiled their new wax statue of Tyra Banks … cuz, you know, the seat of our nation’s government wouldn’t be complete without a wax statue that is the spitting image of this year’s Daytime Emmy Award winner for Best Informative Talk Show … behold:


Madam Tussaud’s usually does a great job with their wax statues but they’ve really outdone themselves with this one. In fact, this statue even looks more lifelike than the real life Tyra Banks. Should the woman ever need to take a sick day, they can just plop this bad boy right down on her couch and I doubt anyone would even notice. This statue even knows how to smile with its fake eyes! Now that’s talent, y’all.

Hollywood and Highland was overrun by the brightest and best of Daytime television last night as the 35th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards took center stage (in the sweltering heat) at the Kodak Theater here in Hollywood, CA. A plethora of Daytime stars took to the red carpet last night but, to be honest, I am only really interested in the folks who appear on my fave Daytime soaps The Young and the Restless and The Bold and the Beautiful. Here are a few folks from both shows as they made their way down the red carpet last night:


Despite nominations in many of the major categories, only 2 folks from Y&R took home Daytime Emmys last night (Kristoff St. John for Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series and Jeanne Cooper for Best Lead Actress in a Drama Series) … but I suppose much congrats should go out to the other folks who did win awards, including Ellen DeGeneres and Tyra Banks among others …
