Vice President Kamala Harris is getting her own wax figure at Madame Tussauds in New York. Harris is the first woman VP of the United States of America. She’s also the first VP to have a wax figure by Madame Tussauds Wax Museum.
The museum made the announcement on Harris’ 99th day in office, and the day President Joe Biden gave his speech to a joint session of Congress.
“I’m hugely honored to be sculpting Kamala Harris. I feel like the most important features to get right are not only her lovely warm, welcoming smile but also her eyes....she’s so engaging when she smiles,” says Sculptor Vicky Grant.
The statues will be fashioned in the inauguration attire of President Biden and VP Harris. They will be featured in the “Oval Office” section of the museum later this year.
