“Louis Wiltshire, commences sculpting on Lady Gaga, October 4, 2010 at Merlin Studios, London ”.
.
One of the world’s most flamboyant and individual performers will join the A-list line up at Madame Tussauds this December as Lady Gaga takes to the stage in eight of Madame Tussauds’ worldwide attractions, including three U.S. locations – Madame Tussauds New York, Madame Tussauds Las Vegas and Madame Tussauds Hollywood. All eight Lady Gaga wax figures will debut on December 9, 2010 in the biggest and most ambitious figure launch in Madame Tussauds history with each attraction revealing a different portrayal of Lady Gaga on the very same day.
In keeping with its reputation as a legendary celebrity hot spot, Madame Tussauds has selected eight very distinct Lady Gaga styles, working with her favorite designers to ensure the looks are spot on. Details of which city will feature which Gaga are being kept tightly under wraps, so fans will have to wait until launch day to find out which Lady Gaga will be wearing their favorite outfit.
The eight styles that will be revealed are:
• Lady in Lace – Alex Noble lace body stocking and Philip Tracey face mask topped off with Marie Antoinette style hairstyle. As seen at The Brit Awards 2010.
• Telephone – Phillip Tracey telephone hat paired with a black Armani coat, flared trousers and towering heels. As seen on Friday Night with Jonathan Ross in March 2010.
• Harlequin – Black Marjan Pejoski Body suit with oversized black neck fuff and sleek, super straight platinum hair. As seen at Grand Intercontinental Hotel Seoul, South Korea.
• Kinky Boots – Short black Bruno Pieters leather body suit cut away to reveal black lace bra, quirky “disc” hat and thigh high black boots. As worn at the Hakkasan restaurant in London in April 2009.
• Mini Mouse – Off one shoulder black latex body suit with long straight hair topped off with “mini mouse” style buns. As seen at the BBC Radio 1 studios in London .
• Hair Hat – Gaga’s own blonde locks splayed out into a huge sunhat teamed with black see-through net dress. As seen at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas .
• Wired “wing” dress with lightning “eye” – Short black Orschel-Read strapless dress with wired, thigh high patent boots and black lightning stripe make up over one eye. As worn on the Wetten Dass..? gameshow in Germany in November 2009.
• Big Hair – Towering purple hair piece atop waist length platinum locks, with nude Maison Martin Margiela bodysuit, white blazer and huge platforms. As seen outside Phoenix Hotel in Copenhagen , Denmark in July 2009.
“We’re very excited about Lady Gaga’s imminent arrival at Madame Tussauds New York , Madame Tussauds Las Vegas and Madame Tussauds Hollywood,” said Janine DiGioacchino, who oversees all three wax attraction as Divisional Director of Midway Attractions, Merlin USA . “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. 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.”
All eight Lady Gaga figures are being worked on simultaneously by an enormous creative team at Merlin Studios in West London , England . Each figure was first perfectly sculpted in clay before being molded in wax. A team of expert artists then accurately recreated color and skin tones, replicating every freckle, mole and dimple, before the make-up, artists, hairdressers and stylists finish off the look. The painstaking process will take four months to complete at a cost of more than $300,000 per figure, adding up to grand total of $2.4 million for all eight figures.
Outside of the three U.S. cities that will be home to Lady Gaga wax doubles – New York , Las Vegas and Hollywood – visitors to Madame Tussauds attractions in London , Amsterdam , Berlin , Shanghai and Hong Kong will also be able to cozy up to Lady Gaga figures starting December 9, 2010, when the figures are revealed.
