Brand New Wax Figure of Pop Superstar to be Unveiled by Madame Tussauds Washington, DC with the help of 107.3 Music Radio Station
Madame Tussauds Washington, D.C. announced today that global pop sensation Miley Cyrus is the newest star to be immortalized in a brand new, never-before-seen wax figure. Madame Tussauds Washington, DC will host the ceremonial unveiling of the figure at the iconic Hard Rock Café (999 E Street, N.W.) on Tuesday, December 16 with the help of DC’s hit music radio station 107.3.
“Fans from across the world request to see Miley whenever they visit our star-studded attraction and we are thrilled to be able to offer our visitors the chance to see her brand new figure,” said Lauren Cottrell, Marketing Manager of Madame Tussauds D.C. “With the success of her latest album and her sold-out tour, Miley will be right at home alongside her musical contemporaries including Taylor Swift and Beyoncé.”
In order to create this uncanny figure, Madame Tussauds Studio Artists used over 250 precise measurements and referenced countless photos and videos of the star. With precision and attention to detail, artists dedicated a full week just to perfect all of Miley’s tattoos.
When her figure is unveiled later this month, Cyrus will join the likes of President Barack Obama, Beyoncé, Oprah Winfrey, Hillary Clinton, and Taylor Swift – all of whom have impeccable wax figures at Madame Tussauds, Washington, D.C.

Beginning as a teen idol on Disney’s Hannah Montana, Cyrus catapulted herself into everlasting fame as she transformed into one of the most recognizable music stars in the world. Her 2013 album, Bangerz, features incredibly popular singles We Can’t Stop andWrecking Ball.
About The Author
Editor-in-Chief/Entertainment Reporter
I knew early on that I wanted to take my place among the stars. One day, my mother saw me reading The Washington Post at a very young age. Who would have known that it would be the building blocks of my journey? Since that day, I dedicated my life to learn all that is learnable. I read everything from encyclopedias, to books, to dictionaries, to magazines. I’m also an avid consumer of television, with my favorite genre being game shows. If you’ve seen me on Who Wants to be a Millionaire or Wheel of Fortune, then you know that this interest has served me well!
My unique style of reporting began back in junior high school, when I started to chronicle the events that shaped my life. Whether it was the annual family vacation or the local science fiction convention, I shot numerous pictures and recorded my thoughts so I could truly appreciate the history. During my senior year at Friendly High, I wrote what was to be my first masterpiece, “Advanced Space Academy – A One Week Journey.” I sent the eleven-page article back to the U.S. Space Camp staff. The article was highly praised for being “one of the best written articles in the history of U.S. Space Camp.” From then on, I knew what I wanted to do for rest of my life — to be a reporter.
Since then, I have trained in Broadcast Journalism at Bowie State University (2008) in Bowie, MD earning a B.S. in Communications. I gained experience in news production and editing through field experiences with Bowie Community Media Corporation, Prince George’s Community Television, and Bowie State University Television. I also wrote scripts for a variety of quiz shows for over five years.
As a lifelong movie buff, I now see close to 100 films every year. I took this love of movies to the next step when I became a co-host for Eclipse Magazine TV in the fall of 2005. While at EMTV, I interviewed celebrities, worked red carpets, and attended a wide variety of movie screenings. In January 2009, I took a leap of faith and started my own entertainment news magazine, The Rogers Revue. Shortly afterward, my life-long journey of studying the silver screen and writing about what I learned finally earned me a place in the Washington Area Film Critics Association.
All of this has led me here, giving you the latest entertainment news for the DMV and the entire nation, and I am truly excited for whatever will come next.
