Virgin Radio Dubai's show host Kris Fade is the latest celebrity in the UAE to have his wax model unveiled at Madame Tussauds Dubai.
Ahead of the official launch, a special unveiling ceremony was held at the popular tourist attraction for Kris Fade and his family.
Expert sculptors spent months creating and crafting the figure by hand, with Kris Fade even donating his own clothes for the model to sport.
The wax figure will take centre stage in the aptly named Media Room (one of seven themed rooms within the attraction), which has been recreated like the Virgin Radio studio.
Visitors can have their photos taken with Kris Fade in a setting that will transport them to the popular radio show.
"It’s an absolute honour to be immortalised, as they say, by Madame Tussauds," said Kris Fade, adding, "Growing up I remember going to the London attraction and I was in awe of how real the figures looked. Never did I think that I would now be in a Madame Tussauds attraction where people would come and take a photo with me. I’m truly blessed by this opportunity, and I will remember this for the rest of my life. I am so grateful to be part of this globally renowned brand."
The tourist attraction will open its doors to the public on October 14.
Special preview tickets are available ahead of the launch on October 8 and 9 online.
