Fans Think New Beyoncé Wax Figure Looks More Like Leah Remini—And Remini Is All About It

After Madame Tussauds Blackpool revealed their new wax statue of the music icon, fans couldn't help but notice a striking similarity to the 'King of Queens' star.

Actor and activist Leah Remini was deeply flattered at being compared to the queen herself, Beyoncé, and she has Madame Tussaud's to thank.

The wax museum's UK location in Blackpool recently unveiled a wax figure of Beyoncé that quickly became Tussaud's latest head-scratcher.


Fans think it looks less like Queen Bey and more like the queen of King Of Queens, Remini, who starred on the long-running CBS sitcom for nine seasons alongside Kevin James.

The comparisons left Remini "screaming" with both laughter and pride, as she shared in a tweet, seen below.

Remini wrote in her post:

"I am screaming! And loving all the tweets!"

"This perimenopausal woman will take any and all comparisons to the beautiful Beyoncé!"

It's hard to disagree with fans—that looks pretty much nothing like Bey and everything like Remini in a Bey costume. Madame Tussaud's has done it again!

A close-up the museum posted to Instagram looks slightly more like Beyoncé than Remini, but not enough to keep one fan from calling it a "Temu Beyoncé."

And as so often happens with Madame Tussaud's sculptures, it quickly went viral for all the wrong reasons.



Fans loved Remini's take on the matter and got plenty of laughs right along with her.






If only King of Queens were still on the air so we could get an epic ratings-grab Beyoncé/Remini collab on the show. Someone pitch this reboot, stat!

Kyle Rittenhouse Blasted Over Sociopathic Post Following ICE Shooting In Minneapolis

Kenosha shooter Kyle Rittenhouse sparked outrage after he offered to travel to Minnesota following ICE's fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good, a mother of three, in Minneapolis on Wednesday.

The heightened attention brought with it a lot of racist and colorist comments about their hair, their skin, and their bodies—especially Serena's more muscular and curvy body.
