Orange Is the New Black star Laverne Cox will be the first transgender person honored with statue in Madame Tussauds.
The actress and activist’s fabulous wax likeness will debut at the museum’s San Francisco location on June 26 during the city’s Pride Festival. Cox said in a statement,
“I am so deeply honored to have been asked to be part of the Madame Tussauds legacy. I hope that this will be a source of inspiration for everyone who encounters it to believe that their dreams matter and are possible.”
