The global pop superstar, Dua Lipa who has a whopping 88M followers on Instagram is admired by her fans for her popular hit singles including "One Kiss', "Levitating" and "Don't Stop". Dua Lipa has had an impactful year in 2023 with her acting debut in "Barbie", with the release of hit single "Dance The Night". While fans of Dua Lipa wait for her upcoming album release in 2024, fans can take this opportunity to meet her wax twin in Madame Tussauds Singapore and snag a selfie.

"Madame Tussauds Singapore is pleased to be the first attraction in Asia to have Dua Lipa's figure so fans in the region can look forward to getting up close and personal with the star," said Steven Chung, General Manager of Madame Tussauds Singapore. The meticulously crafted wax figure took approximately six months to create by a team of highly trained studio artists in London. Each strand of hair was individually inserted by hand, taking about five weeks to complete her head of hair alone.

Fans who are excited to see Dua Lipa's wax figure can visit Madame Tussauds Singapore's website at www.madametussauds.com/singapore to purchase attraction tickets and witness the craftsmanship that have gone into creating this remarkable tribute to one of the greatest pop singers of our time.
