Washington: Madame Tussauds on Thursday has unveiled the wax figurine of the American singer Beyonce in London.

Inspired by Beyonce's 2019 Coachella outfit, the statue's styling was perfected with a yellow Balmain hoodie with a pair of denim shorts and fringy knee-length boots.

On Friday, Beyonce's statue is expected to be replaced with the Queen's as she will join the figures of her contemporaries including Ed Sheeran, Adele, Rihanna.
In a recent interview with a news portal, Steve Davies, general manager at Madame Tussauds London said: "Beyonce is a living legend, rightly crowned Queen Bey by her legions of fans and industry insiders. If anyone is fitting of a claim to The Queen's spot in our attraction for the very first time, it's Beyonce."
He further clarified: "HRH Queen Elizabeth II is famous for her mischievous sense of humour and we think a wry smile will cross her face when she sees that music royalty has temporarily filled her shoes."
The statue is surrounded by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Prince Philip to the right while Kate Middleton, Prince William, Prince Charles and Camila Parker Bowles are seen standing to her left.
Queen Bey's very first wax figure was unveiled in 2004 at New York City Madame Tussauds.
