Wax On & Wax Off at Madame Tussauds

December 12, 2012


Stephen has been honored in so many ways: in Lego form, in ice cream, and as a plush hockey mascot. But, the ultimate honor came when Madame Tussauds Wax Museum announced they would immortalize Stephen with a wax twin.

To prepare for this momentous event, The Report headed to Washington D.C. to tour Madame Tussauds and to meet some of the wax celebrities Stephen would join, like Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and Larry King.

Watch the web exclusive below to take the tour with Stephen.





Stephen also met with the museum's artists and learned about the painstaking process it would take to design his waxy twin — which includes inserting 100,000 hairs individually to precisely match his likeness.




Finally, Stephen was ready to meet his waxy protégé. Could it encapture his smoldering good looks and blistering significance? Watch the video below to find out.




What exactly did it take to turn Stephen into a wax figure? Check out this time-lapse video for behind-the-scenes footage.
