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!

People Describe The Most Insane Event They've Ever Witnessed

Chaos is, according to the lexicographers at Oxford, a "state of complete disorder and confusion."

Humans find chaos entertaining to watch—hence the popularity of so-called reality TV—but not as much fun to be in the thick of. People may love the moment a "Real Housewife" flips a table, but would be less thrilled if a family member did it during dinner.

Kim Kardashian Mocked For Beige 'Ozempic Santa' In NYC Skims Store—And This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things

Santa Claus has survived centuries of tradition, but he was no match for beige, shapewear, or Kim Kardashian. A holiday TikTok posted last Monday to the SKIMS account sparked widespread mockery after showing Santa Claus visiting the brand’s New York City flagship store in a look that was unmistakably on-brand.

Gone was the iconic red velvet suit. In its place was a muted beige ensemble that looked less North Pole and more minimalist showroom chic.

Guy Calls Out Bugles For 'Ruining' His Childhood After They Changed Their Iconic Shape

Possibly more than any other generation, Millennials were raised with interactive snacks and candies. From dippable cookies and candies to chips perfectly shaped for scooping and build-your-own pizzas, consumers found the interactive experience to be more important than the food itself.

Bugles are a fan favorite example, because while the chips were tasty and crispy, with a solid variety of flavors to choose from, the real point of them was their iconic shape, like the mouth of a bugle horn. Though we didn't openly talk about it at the time, it was a Millennial pastime to put the Bugles on our fingers like long nails, pretending we were fashionistas and gremlins and vampires.
