The wax figure, dressed in a red sequinned gown inspired by Carey’s 2020 Apple TV+ holiday special, is displayed in a festive setting, complete with a giant Christmas wreath and life-sized nutcrackers.

The detailed waxwork, which took over nine months to create, amazed Carey and her 13-year-old twins, Moroccan and Monroe, who shared their awe at the likeness.

Carey even donated her own jewellery for the figure, including a red ruby necklace and matching earrings. Fans were equally impressed, praising the lifelike creation with comments like “They NAILED IT” and “The best one I’ve seen yet.”

Carey expressed her excitement, calling the wax figure surreal and the perfect tribute to Christmas. The display, celebrating her iconic holiday legacy, left many fans eager to see it in person, cementing the wax figure as one of Madame Tussauds’ best celebrity creations.
