“You chose Classic Ari! Now we have her style nailed, you can see @arianagrande at Madame Tussauds London for 5 weeks from Friday,” said a post by the Museum’s official Twitter account that unveiled a wax statue of American-Italian song writer and singer Ariana Grande.

The fans were made to decide the look of Ari which her wax statue would have and they opted for the classic high pony, over-sized sweat shirt and knee length boots look of the pop star.
However after the statue was publicly opened the fans were nothing less than disappointed. They deemed the statue to be an insult to Ari.
A fan reportedly said; “I hate Ariana’s new wax figure. It’s not her face. She deserves more respect you know. She’s the best female pop singer in the world and all you could do was this. They need to create a new one because this ain’t it”.
Even the 25-year old song writer and actress didn’t seem too pleased with it. After the statue was revealed, Ariana seemed to throw a little shade under Madame Tussauds official post on Instagram.
“I just wanna talk,” said the starlet.
While it seemed as Madame Tussauds did a horrible job at nailing Ari’s look, there are fans who think it looks like her paler, younger version, before she started adapting the ‘black woman look’. Some even went ad extra as comparing her statue to Kylie Jenner’s pre-plastic surgery looks.
