Earlier
this morning (Monday, February 11), Madame Tussauds Las Vegas unveiled a wax
figure of singer, actress and producer Whitney Houston.
The
first single from Houston’s second studio album was titled “I Wanna Dance with
Somebody (Who Loves Me)” and earned the Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal
Performance at the 30th Grammy Awards in 1988.
The song’s accompanying video became one of Houston's best recognized
music videos and ran in heavy rotation on MTV, VH1, and BET. At Madame Tussauds Las Vegas, Houston’s wax
figure will be styled in the same way she appeared in the video, wearing a
tight purple-pink tank dress and blonde curly hair.
“We
are excited for one of Whitney’s four amazing figures to reside in our music
room here in Las Vegas alongside other music legends,” remarked Madame Tussauds
Las Vegas General Manager Rosita Chapman.
