30 of the worst celebrity wax figures ever made
Don't look at these photos before bed
Meryl Streep
Meryl Streep is a gorgeous person who looked especially gorgeous the night she won her Oscar for "The Iron Lady," and yet somehow the wax version looks like it's about to kill and eat the first living creature it sees.
DzԳé
DzԳé wax figures are always a mess, possibly because it's difficult to imitate perfection. More than has faced backlash for , though this one's problem is that it's gawky and uncoordinated — two things DzԳé has never been.
Michelle Obama
Michelle's warm smile is wasted on this terrifying wax figure.
Donald Trump
The fact that this wax figure has more gravity-defying hair than the actual Donald Trump is truly impressive.
Donald Trump, Again
This Chinese version is less a wax figure and more a discount Halloween mask.
Donald Trump, One More Time
There are a lot of him out there, yet none quite fit the bill.
Oprah
To be fair to the hat, this wax Oprah is attending wax Barack Obama's 50th birthday party, but I still have questions about that eye shadow. Real Oprah would never!
Nicole Kidman
The real Nicole Kidman has always had a kind of statuesque, porcelain doll thing going on, but this horror show takes it to a new level. Its forehead is about twice the size of her regular forehead, and its eyes say, "I bet your spleen tastes delicious."
Ben Affleck
If the good people of Boston's Dreamland Wax Museum were attempting to make a wax figure approximation of the , then this one was a great success.
Jennifer Aniston
Wax Jennifer Aniston is what happens to your skin when you stop drinking Smartwater and don't apply your Aveeno nightly.
Leonardo DiCaprio
We bet Rose would've let go if Jack looked like that in "Titanic."
Prince William
It can't be easy to make a wax figure of a royal — you don't want to offend them, after all — but this one, despite having a more generous amount of hair than the real William, looks like it's been holding in a fart since Queen Elizabeth's coronation.
Prince William, Again
The costume gets an A-minus, but the purplish hue of the skin tone gets a "maybe you need to cut down on the beets, Wax William."
Jennifer Lopez
This looks like wax J.Lo is about to fight someone who was flirting with the real star's fiance, former Yankee Alex Rodriguez.
Brad Pitt
Brad Pitt has made some questionable facial hair choices in his day but never has he looked as much like a freelance magician as this wax figure does.
Brad Pitt, Again
This long-haired version of his wax figure looks like he borrowed Bill Hader's wig from "The Californians" and went nuts with the highlighter.
Kim Kardashian
Say what you will about the real Kim's heavily contoured face, her eyes are not crossed and her hairline sits a little higher than that. At least they kind of got the hair right?
Justin Timberlake
We're sure this is not what Timberlake meant when he said he was bringing "Sexy Back."
Chris Hemsworth
Remember what I said about Bill Hader's "Californians" wig? Well it's back again and this time it's on Thor's head.
Naomi Campbell
I'm not sure how you take one of the most iconic supermodels in the world and turn her into "Daffy's mannequin that survived a nuclear winter," but here we are. This monstrosity is from Paris's Musée Grévin.
Mark Zuckerberg
There are a lot of questions you could ask about this Zuckerberg wax figure, but the most important one is obviously, why is he not wearing any shoes?
Selena Gomez
Selena Gomez was only born in 1992, yet the styling on this wax figure makes it look at least 48. See you at scrapbooking class, wax Selena!
Zac Efron
While Zac Efron did have a haircut approximating this one circa 2007, he certainly didn't look like this.
Britney Spears
Perhaps this Madame Tussauds figure in Las Vegas was a take on Britney's Dark Period, but (1) its very pale, almost too pale, and (2) it looks less like it's dancing and more like a demon inside it is forcing it to walk backwards down the stairs at Planet Hollywood.
Robert Pattinson
The problem with wax figures is that when the light hits them just the right way they look like, well, wax, but in this case, that waxy shine just looks like sweat. Is anyone getting more Leonardo DiCaprio than Rob vibes?
Justin Bieber
Justin Bieber as a Sim. Like the video game.
Justin Bieber, Again
This London edition of Bieber is described as having a "wet look," and while the real Bieber did incorporate water elements into the Purpose tour, he's never been quite so dead-eyed, even at his worst. Good tattoo accuracy, though.
Rihanna
Rihanna did have a similar haircut around 2009, but this wax figure looks like it was imported from the 80s and dressed in your mom's old business clothes.
Miley Cyrus
Yes, Miley did have long brown hair back in her Hannah Montana days, but no, she did not ever have the face of a haunted baby doll come to terrify you in the night.
Nicki Minaj
After Madame Tussauds introduced this Nicki statue in Las Vegas, a ton of tourists couldn't resist taking inappropriate pictures with the wax rapper's likeness. The museum ended up extra security around the statue, but the real Nicki said she liked it.
Meryl Streep
Meryl Streep is a gorgeous person who looked especially gorgeous the night she won her Oscar for "The Iron Lady," and yet somehow the wax version looks like it's about to kill and eat the first living creature it sees.

It takes hundreds of hours to make a wax figure and with wax museums all over the world — Madame Tussauds alone has 24 locations — full of celebrity models, there's bound to be a dud every once in a while. But when they're duds, they're really duds. Take a look at some of the most terrible celebrity wax figures ever made.
