Karol G visited New York to unveil her new wax figures in her honor! The Colombian singer attended the ceremony, which took place at the legendary Madame Tussauds Museum. In August 2023, it was announced that the "Cairo" singer would be the next Colombian artist to have her figure displayed in the famous museum. Over a year after that exciting announcement, the singer's dream has become a reality.
The two figures will be in different venues. One will be at the New York headquarters, while the other, which refers to her look in the TQG video, will be moved to the Las Vegas museum at the end of this month. Proud of this milestone, Karol posed alongside the two figures that recreate two of the most important stages of her career worldwide.
The first wax figure alludes to the artist's performance at the Coachella Music Festival in 2022, where the Bichota singer wore a Colombian flag through her wardrobe. The outfit has two pieces: a pair of hip-hugging pants and an asymmetrical long-sleeved top in the colors of her country. The second wax figure corresponds to her collaboration with Shakira for the "TQG" music video.
The statue shows off her striking red hair, a bold style synonymous with her presence in Latin music, as Madame Tussaud described in a post on their official social networks. In a statement, Karol expressed her excitement about this new achievement and emphasized how much she liked her figure, which, according to her followers, is identical to her.
"Wow, how impressive! My first impression was that I love my smile and the color of my eyes. I hope that when my fans meet the figures, it will be a manifestation for them that one day they will meet me," she said.
Karol G is one of our generation's most important living Latin artists," added Eliza Rose, marketing manager of Madame Tussauds New York. Her figure is a beautiful addition to our museums and a testament to her talent, influence, and the love that her fans feel for her."
