RuPaul’s Drag Race has also been turned into a fundraising work of art. First up, Madame Tussauds Las Vegas unveiled a brand new RuPaul Charles waxwork.This is the second time RuPaul has been honored with a wax figure.
The first was revealed in 2000 at Madame Tussauds New York. That figure featured RuPaul in drag and was Madame Tussauds’ first-ever drag figure.RuPaul says his new figure is important for a different reason. “It’s special because I’m doing this one out of drag.
This is my male persona, which in recent years has become just a famous as my drag persona,” he said in a press statement.RuPaul personally sat for the model makers, who took over 200 different measurements to make the figure as realistic as possible.
