Earlier this week, Madame Tussauds Wax Museum in London unveiled a new wax figure of Emmy-winning actress Zendaya, which has many noticing discrepancies in their likeness.
The wax figure is a replica of Zendaya’s 2016 appearance at the Humane Society of the United States “To The Rescue Gala.” She wore a bold neon pink suit paired with a classic smoky eye and a sophisticated low bun.
The wax figure did replicate one of her actual photos that were taken, however there were more than a few to choose from. Nevertheless, not everyone was mad.

One person tweeted, “The wax version of Zendaya looks like she wants to speak to the manager. Another said, “Zendaya needs to see someone in charge…asap.”

The debate over the wax figure fueled discussion on Madame Tussauds previous black celebrity replications like unrecognizable wax figures of Beyoncé. One person said, “Zendaya’s Madame Tussauds wax figure is horrible. Why is it so hard for them to make Black People?”
Another tweeted, “Why are people so pressed about the Zendaya wax figure, she’s one of the most beautiful people ever they’re not gonna be able to emulate that in a wax figure hahaha they did their best like.”
