AceShowbiz - Superstar Drake has been immortalised in wax thanks to officials at Madame Tussauds Las Vegas.
A statue of the Canadian rapper, dressed in the same attire he wore for his "Hotline Bling" music video, was unveiled on Wednesday, June 19, as part of an interactive experience replicating the colourful set of his viral 2016 hit.
Studio manager Adam Morey reveals it wasn't hard for museum officials to decide which visual to use of Drake as inspiration for the sculpture, which showcases the MC dressed in a grey sweatshirt bearing the owl logo of his OVO brand, a gold Rolex watch, and Timberland boots.
"Fortunately, the viral Internet sensation of one of his most iconic music videos was the driving design factor for the look and feel of the Drake figure and set at Madame Tussauds Las Vegas," he tells Billboard.
The 32-year-old will have plenty of opportunities to check out the wax figure for himself - he currently has a residency set at the Wynn Las Vegas' XS Nightclub.
