Nicki Minaj Wax Figure Unveiled at Madame Tussauds

Nicki Minaj received her first wax figure at Madame Tussauds Wax Museum in Las Vegas on Tuesday, August 4. The figure is inspired by the New York rapper’s tantalizing music video for her hit Anaconda.

What do you think of the Nicki Minaj wax figure?

The “Stay With Me” hitmaker will be performing in Golden Gate Park at the Outside Lands music festival on Sunday (09.08.15) and the next day he will attend the grand unveiling of his statue.

The figure’s costume – a gold bikini top with black bottoms and high-heeled sandals – also comes straight from the video, which has been viewed nearly 500 million times to-date.

“YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WTF?!?!?!?!??!?? Had no idea they were really doing this”.

In addition to being one of the most popular online videos of 2014, Anaconda was Nicki’s highest-charting single to-date and earned her a Grammy nomination at the end of the year.

Her likeness, unveiled today, took almost six months and more than 20 artists to create.

The museum confirmed a week ago that the figure would be added to its collection. I would’ve went to Vegas for this.

This throwback video has re-ignited speculation as to what kind of enhancement Nicki has had done to achieve her voluptuous figure. “They had the dancers ready and everything”, read the caption.
