All day on Thursday (December 9), Madame Tussauds unveiled eight wax versions of Lady Gaga all over the world, including at the museum's European outposts, as well as one in New York's Times Square. MTV News was on hand for the NYC unveiling of the pop star's wax likeness, where her little monsters showed up dressed up in Gaga-like garb to catch a glimpse of the statue.
For the New York version, Gaga appears in a sheer black dress paired with a wide-brim hat made of hair, a look she wore to the Consumer Electronics Show back in January. Earlier in the day, figures were unveiled in Asia and Europe, and they fittingly each have their own unique fashion statement, which Gaga fans were invited to help pick out. In Berlin, Gaga wears a blazer, leotard and hair bow; in London the figure dons a Philip Treacy telephone hat and sparkly navy Armani suit; in Amsterdam, she's in a nude bodysuit, a white blazer and a towering purple beehive. Her skintight black harlequin outfit is featured in Hong Kong, and her wire "wing" dress is on display in Shanghai. Gaga statues are also making their debut in Los Angeles and Las Vegas later in the day.
"As one of the biggest and most unique talents in the world, Lady Gaga is the perfect subject for the biggest figure launch in Madame Tussauds' history," a November press release said, explaining why Gaga was getting so many statues. "All of the styles being worked on are classic Gaga, and we're sure her fans will be delighted with the unique looks when we unveil the figures next month."
Gaga is one of the many pop stars to get a wax statue this year. She joins Taylor Swift, Kim Kardashian and Gwen Stefani as some of the latest celebs to be immortalized for the museum.
