<p>The extremely talented and versatile <strong>Lady Gaga</strong> shows up in this rendition. I love it!<br />
<br />
<strong>Madame Tussaud's</strong> wax museums may be overpriced tourist traps, but once in a while, it's always fun to check in and see new and revamped wax figures. And for me, the original on Marylebone Road in <strong>London</strong> will always be the real deal.</p>
