Criss Angel Added To Madame Tussauds


Madame Tussauds Las Vegas is proud to announce the unveiling of their latest wax creation of magician extraordinaire Criss Angel yesterday! Criss was signing autographs and taking souvenir photos with the kids from Make-A-Wish Foundation as well as other attendees and fans who were present at the private unveiling.

He was overwhelmed by the resemblance between himself and his figure, which was priced around $300,000 to create.

Check out the photos below as Criss Angel and his wax figure strike a pose! Can you tell which is the real MINDFREAK?

Man beheads wax Hitler

A man entered Berlin's Madam Tussauds wax museum Saturday morning and "made for the [Adolf] Hitler figure," tearing the head off the life-size statue of the Nazi dictator.

Police arrested the 41-year-old, who told officers he was protesting the figure's inclusion in the museum.

The police also said they are investigating the man for causing bodily harm to a manager, who attempted to stop him from damaging the statue. He will likely be released later today.

The Berlin branch of the Madame Tussauds wax museum opened for the first time Saturday, and museum official Nathalie Ruoss said the organizers would have to decide what to do about the statue on Monday.

The effigy was already controversial; the German media criticized its presence, whereas others said it was impossible to ignore the Nazi head's role in German history.

It depicts a sullen-faced Hitler sitting at the desk in his dimly-lit bunker shortly before his 1945 suicide.

Other German figures in the museum include scientist Albert Einstein and composer Johan Sebastian Bach.

Harrison Ford Waxes His Chest

Harrison Ford, star of the new Indiana Jones movie, waxed his chest today in support of rainforests. The actor went through with the painful procedure which simulated rainforest slashing and burning.

Ford sat in the hot seat while the cameras rolled and the wax poured on. The expression on his face looked the same as the torture scene in Temple of Doom. As the hair was being ripped from his torso he manged to utter a few words about the saving the rainforests.

"When rainforests get slashed and burned, it releases tonnes of carbon into the air we breathe. It changes our climate. It hurts," he says, grimacing as his chest is deforested.

"Every bit of rainforest that gets ripped out over there," he says, "really hurts us over here."
