New Celine wax figure at Madame Tussauds Las Vegas


Recommended Posts

Well it's about time..thought they would've done it a while back. Ohhh wonder if they'll use that one they had at the Colosseum before? Where's that one now? They used to charge a ridiculous amount to take a pic with wax Celine before going into the show.

 

Hey I love Sarah Michele too - she's always be my Buffy!! Love her statue there. Love her new show too. :clap:

That figure is still inside CP. They still charge like $40 for a picture but the proceeds go to CD Foundation or something. I've never done it cause I don't like that dress she's in.

 

Do we know if Céline is going to be there? ^_^

Nope, she won't.

 

@CelineDionForum thanks! Unfortunately she won't be at the unveiling - she's a busy, busy lady! But we have some other surprises planned ;)

Las Vegas headliner Celine Dion will be the latest celebrity to be honored in wax at Madame Tussauds Las Vegas. The French-Canadian superstar will be the latest addition to the Viva Vegas room, featuring some of the biggest names in Las Vegas history - including Elvis, The Rat Pack, and Wayne Newton.

 

Dion’s figure will rock the stage with microphone in hand and feature a re-creation of her natural, glowing stage makeup and flowing blonde locks. Four different colors of real human hair were used in the figure’s creation, with each strand needing to be individually inserted.

Maybe they could display this statue on stage of The Colosseum in Caesars Palace instead.

 

At least until March 18th anyway.

I had been wondering that when this was announced. This is what I read on the Madame Tussauds website on how they make the figures:

 

We discuss pose, expression and the image of the figure with the sitter and take detailed measurements and photographs in, ideally, a 4-hour, but sometimes just 15-minute sitting. Sittings are hard work – even four- hours isn’t much time to gain all the information needed to create a figure which could take up to six months to make. The sculptor usually has an assistant and our in-house photographer at ‘external’ sittings sessions, but when they take place at Studios the sculptor can also expect assistance from additional Tussauds artists - experts in assessing hair, eyes and skin colouring and discussing wardrobe requirements. Members of the Tussauds mould team are also available to take hand casts and teeth casts, if necessary.

The sitting offers the sculptor the opportunity to get to know his/her subject a little, gaining an insight into the ‘real person’ behind the media image – Madame Tussauds endeavours to reflect this in the final figure.

 

So she would have had a sitting at least 6 months ago. Probably in Vegas, so it wouldn't have been that much trouble for her to do it.

Im looking forward to seeing the finished statue! Maybe when they see how popular celine is they might think about doing more statues in other parts of the world too :)

So what do we think she'll be wearing? TCWT outfit maybe? Too soon to put her in a new show gown I'd think...

Im dying to know if Scott and Zhane did the hair and makeup ( paint ) :P

It has to be a costume she has 2 or more of so yeah more than likely a show/tour one... i have a feeling its the white one with the high strappy shoes from the tour, but who knows, i'm excited :)

Posted
no they did it themselves, just got a tweet back... :)
Posted
I think she will be wearing either the pink tour dress, or the purple MHWGO tour dress!

My vote is the pink Balmain from the tour. But I could also see them putting her in the lilac one...I'm not picturing a long gown for some reason.

Merci Céline pour ces deux soirées inoubliables que j'ai passées à tes côtés. Je ne les oublierais jamais.

J't'adore Céline.

Merci.

Looks great! I knew it would be a short dress :P

 

The glare in the eye on the right (her left eye) makes it look cross-eyed and I was worried for a second - but it's just a light reflecting in the eye. :laugh:

That is REALLY good. Her face is a little bit "off" but her legs are PERFECT. Overall, amazing job.

haha! I just noticed that, too! I LOVE her hair. This is probably the best one of her I've seen. The one at CP is a close second, but this one really captures her, ya know?
Posted
Definitely the best one yet!

There ain't a dream
That don't have the chance to come true now
It just takes a little faith..
