“I am deeply honored and thankful to receive my own wax figure. The wait is over and I’m thrilled for you all to see it. It means so much to me to be able to join the remarkable lineup of Filipinos immortalized at Madame Tussauds,” she expressed.
The wax figure was elegantly dressed in a blue gown, affectionately referred to as her “workhorse gown.” Crafted by her lifelong friend and designer Rajo Laurel, it features a flattering corset and crepe fabric.
“I chose this dress as I felt it best represented my personality and sensibilities when deciding what to wear for performances. This gown served me so well for so many shows, so it felt right for it to be continued to be seen on Madame Tussaud’s wax likeness of me,” Lea added.

Together with Lea, we have chosen a pose that exudes her magnetic presence on stage where her talent and personality shine through. We hope that through this figure, her legacy continues to inspire visitors globally.”
