Reba Gets ‘Fancy’ New Madame Tussauds Wax Figure
“I’m really blown away with how great it looks, it’s like looking in a mirror," Reba said.
Reba is the latest of country superstars to join the ranks of Madame Tussauds wax figures as the superstar recently came face-to-face with her likeness during soundcheck in Las Vegas ahead of her Reba, Brooks & Dunn: Together in Vegas show.
“I tried to find differences between me and the figure and there weren’t any,” said the redheaded superstar. “I’m really blown away with how great it looks, it’s like looking in a mirror.”
The new figure, which comes days after the addition of Luke Bryan and Blake Shelton, will be featured at the conclusion of the attraction on a replica of the Grand Ole Opry stage. The figure will be in a performance-ready pose, outfitted with a recreation of Reba’s personal dress, shoes and jewelry.
The addition of Reba to the new Madame Tussauds Nashville location came from a social media contest that allowed fans to nominate the artists they’d most like to see in the exhibit with the overwhelming vote going to the “Fancy” singer.
Each Madame Tussauds figure takes months for professional artists and sculptors to create. Researchers take more than 300 measurements to re-create icons from around the world.
The Nashville location will be the first themed attraction, highlighting artists that have shaped America’s musical landscape in genres ranging from Country to Rock n Roll, Jazz to Blues and even Pop. Additional figures featured in the new location will include Luke Bryan, Blake Shelton, Carrie Underwood, Johnny Cash, Keith Urban, Taylor Swift, Minnie Pearl, Kenny Rogers, Little Jimmy Dickens, Beyoncé, Billie Holiday, Rihanna, Stevie Wonder and many others. The addition of Nashville characters Rayna James and Deacon Claybourne was also recently announced.
Guests can pre-order tickets to the attraction now and save $5 from the regular price. For more information, visit madametussauds.com/nashville.
