You know it’s not the same as it was, but wax figures are forever.

The former boy band star’s likeness will be unveiled at the Music […]
It takes a lot to surprise Post Malone.

In a video posted by Consequence of Sound, Posty is seen making his way backstage after […]
Justin Bieber is a soon-to-be dad, and Madame Tussauds celebrated the exciting news that his wife, Hailey Bieber, is pregnant in a unique way.

Travis Barker is the latest celebrity to be transformed into a wax figure for Madame Tussauds, as unveiled Sunday (Oct. 22) at the museum’s Las Vegas location.
Fitted with clothes donated by Barker himself — including a leather jacket, boots, pants and studded belt — the Blink-182 drummer’s statue looks to be one of Madame Tussauds’ most realistic-looking figures to date. His tattoos were replicated perfectly, as were his dark eyebrows and bright blue eyes.
“I’m honored, I’m flattered, I’m shocked,” the musician said at the unveiling ceremony, where he posed for pictures with his wax twin. “It looks so f–king real.”
Barker’s figure even features some of his signature silver jewelry, including his nose rings, chain necklace and wedding ring, which represents his marriage to Kourtney Kardashian. The Poosh founder — who is currently expecting the couple’s first child together — wasn’t in attendance at her husband’s wax figure debut, but the drummer was spotted showing her his duplicate over FaceTime.
The “All The Small Things” artist later posted some of his own photos with his wax lookalike on Instagram, writing, “Come say hi to my clone @madametussaudsusa.”
According to the press release, Barker worked closely with the Madame Tussauds team of sculptors, colorists, hairdressers and stylists to produce his wax figure, which is now the most-tattooed installment ever created by the museum. Each of his 100-plus tats was closely matched using 3D scanning, with the stenciling and coloring processes taking approximately nine weeks total.
Barker and Kardashian, who both have kids from past relationships, are on their way to becoming parents once again. The couple recently experienced a health scare regarding the pregnancy, which led Blink-182 to postpone a few overseas shows “due to an urgent family matter” as the drummer raced home to be with the reality star as she underwent urgent fetal surgery.
“That experience opened my eyes to a whole new world of pregnancy that I didn’t know about in the past,” Kardashian recalled of the incident in an interview with Vogue. “It was terrifying … I’ve finally been able to let go of the fear and worry that everybody else put in us because of this pregnancy.”

Rihanna has had an exciting week, as she dropped jaws with her gorgeous look at the Met Gala on Monday night (May 1). The pregnant superstar donned a gorgeous all-white Valentino wedding gown with a train, adorned with white roses — and revealing her baby bump.
“It’s so different from the first one,” she told ET of being pregnant with her second baby with A$AP Rocky. “No cravings. Tons of nausea. Everything’s different, but I’m enjoying it.”
One night prior, Rih teased her own Met Gala appearance by posting a series of photos wearing a furry, black and white Chanel look out in New York City. Both looks fit snugly over her baby bump, a hallmark of the singer’s trend-setting maternity style.

The figure’s surrounding set (seen above), inspired by Bad Bunny’s El Último Tour Del Mundo album cover, features a purple semi-truck decked out with flames in the middle of a vast desert landscape. The Puerto Rican singer has two other wax figures, one in NYC’s Times Square location and the other in Orlando, Fla.
“We’re revealing Bad Bunny’s figure today to not only celebrate his 11 nominations for the upcoming Latin American Music Awards, but to congratulate and honor him for being the first latin artist to headline Coachella,” said Gabriel Hewitt, general manager for Madame Tussauds Las Vegas. “He’s having such an incrediblen incredible year and we’re excited to be a part of his success by revealing his third figure.”
The new figure took approximately six months to create by a team of 20 London-based artists, according to a press release. The process included analyzing hundreds of videos and images to capture every single one of the 29-year-old star’s features, including his hair color and texture, eye color, skin tone, nail shape and more.
