Amy Winehouse immortalized in wax

July 23rd, 2008 // 90 Comments

Amy Winehouse, for who the hell knows what reason, has been immortalized in wax at Madame Tussauds in London. Her parents Mitch and Janis stopped by for the unveiling sans Amy which prompted Mitch to ask Janis “Why couldn’t you have had a wax baby? I want a divorce.” The AP reports:

The singer’s parents, Mitch and Janis Winehouse, attended the unveiling, but the 24-year-old soul diva did not. Her father said she was working and would see the waxwork in the next few weeks.
“This is the reward for her musical achievements and her talent,” Mitch Winehouse said, adding the model bears an “incredible” likeness to his daughter.

For even further authenticity, the statue was rolled around the inside of a dumpster out back. These people don’t fuck around.

    The forgot the cuts on her lips from her crack pipe and the track marks on her arms.

  3. winohouse

    she looks more human in wax

  4. Ashley

    I saw the picture and was like wow, she doesn’t look like shit for one, then I read the headline and was like, oh, well that makes more sense!

  6. Why has no one mentioned that the mother woman here looks like a dump? Couldn’t she find a better outfit? Come on people….

  7. Truth doctor

    I would so totally stick my penis in that. The wax one, I mean.

  8. Eva

    I want to say that the wax version is so much more attractive than she is, but that would imply that Amy is attractive to begin with…. which she, um.. not really. But you all know what I mean.

  9. Lindsay

    yea she sucks and shit but WOW, that is really well done. Most of them look like shiny and crappy – that looks so good. Better than the real thing!

    I can’t believe everyone missed the obvious.. That’s not wax, it’s crack. Amy’s gonna go Dahlmer on it. All of a sudden, it’s missing a foot. Then a leg. Pretty soon, the room smells like burnt wig hair, and it’s all over. Amy has destroyed the Wax Crack Anti-Amy, and they go up in a puff of logic.

  11. Cheese

    Why in the name of sweet fuck would you want to immortalize her?

  12. smashboogie

    speaking of wax, why does mom look straight out of a Wallace and Gromit short?

  13. Cam

    Kill it with fire

  14. Kim Lardassian

    I have to say Amy’s Dad is such a publicity whore, he’d attend the opening of a tube of toothpaste if invited.

  15. Snoodle

    Not to be cruel, but they’ve been awfully generous….she’s much skinnier and unhealthy looking than that >_<

  16. Jeniffer

    Amazing…I seemed to see she had a personal account on the wealthy dating club R I C H L O V I N G.C O M for hot guys and girls to hook up for Hot Love and Sexy Dating. Her blog was updated very often. Lots of guys joined in her friend circle there.

  17. Oolex

    FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!

  18. James

    That’s some pretty good work.

  19. Guy

    “for who the hell knows what reason” how about winning multi awards for her singing? Idiot…

  20. Bill

    THIS IS THE BEST THIS CHICK HAS LOOKED IN YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    When I was scrolling down, these photos caught my eye and I momentarily thought Wino had gotten off the drugs, cleaned up, and taken the first decent photos in months.

    Oh wait, it’s wax.

  23. simplicity

    Wow..
    I was just gonna say how good she looks..
    figures it’s wax

  24. WOW

    That is AMAZING work. I had to double-take…seriously. It looked so real I thought maybe she “cleaned-up” a bit and got off the drugs O.o

  25. I wonder if her wax effigy comes alive at night and goes on a search for a crack house, like everything chasing Ben Stiller around all night in Night At The Holocaust Museum???

  26. Sash

    Amy actually used to be quite curvy and beautiful. Look up some pics of her before she dropped to 70 lbs., like around the time of her 1st album in 2003.

  27. CC

    How long before someone comes in and rips its head off?

  28. where are the lesions?

  29. siren

    The wax figure has more talent anyways.

  30. Ahem

    It would be more authentic if they tore off those nails and made what’s left all craggy and full of dirt. You’ve got to pimple up the skin on that until it looks like a disease you can catch, drag the hairpiece thing around inside a dump truck from the fish market and give it a full crack pipe. It would then animate and want to butt heads with something. Afterwards, you’d have to let it go to the liquor store for a fist full of little bottles, a magazine and some gum.

  31. Ahem

    Just remember, it’ll soon look worse than the real Amy if you let it sit in the sun.

  32. Anon

    I’m with #34. If you think it’s okay for your child to assume someone is bad because they’re not beautiful, then you are a terrible parent. I wouldn’t have phrased it the same way as 34, but i’m confident his disdain for you comes from the same place.

    To all the #32 defenders: Please – sweet dullards – never stop commenting on this site…let it consume your every free waking moment….never stop your quest to fill the internet with evidence of your cognitive failings…especially not to procreate.

  33. Weird. This thing looks much more vibrant, attractive and lifelike than the real thing. Usually the opposite is true.

  34. @33 – actually I saw a few years old picture of her and she did look relatively sanitary and acceptable.

  35. Reyce

    Who the hell cares what Amy does on her own time man. She’s a fucking incredible singer and writer, so STFU.

    And yeah, the wax statue is cool too.

  36. Moi

    Fuck this hymie waste of space.

  37. Erica.

    #4. The Amy statue has a monroe piercing in this. It’s not a mole.

  38. June

    This statue is way better looking than her. The face is prettier, the make up is better and hell, even the outfit is nice. Real life amy = scary!!!!

  39. stacey

    I think the wax figure looks way better then the real person. She needs to get alot of help and maybe she could look like the wax figure of herself. The real amy winehouse looks nasty.
