In the pics, Beyoncé’s figure, perched on a giant ring hanging from the ceiling, donned a plunging silver bodysuit with a matching shawl draped around her arms and flowing down to the floor.
It mimicked the Crazy in Love singer’s style with her long brunette locks in waves down her back and accessorized with heavy makeup, silver high heels, and statement jewelry.
Despite efforts to make the wax figure look exactly like the pop star, fans weren’t sold on the outcome.
“Ummm wtf is that..” one person wrote on X in response to the figure’s unveiling.
“Now Beyoncé may be light skin but this is insane…” someone else commented on the sculpture’s lighter skin tone.
“Whitewashed and failed to get her features right,” a third critiqued.
“Who the hell is that supposed to be??” a fourth asked.
Beyoncé has yet to comment publicly about her wax figure.
This wasn’t the first time that fans raged about Beyoncé’s wax figures.
In 2017, backlash ensued after Madame Tussauds New York debuted their wax figure of Beyoncé, which fans again claimed looked nothing like the performer.
They specifically had issues with the sculpture’s skin color, which didn’t appear to match the Cowboy Carter singer.
Madame Tussaud’s addressed fans’ fury in a statement to Page Six, saying, “At Madame Tussauds, our talented team of sculptors take every effort to ensure we accurately color match all of our wax figures to the celebrity being depicted.
“Lighting within the attraction combined with flash photography may distort and misrepresent the color of our wax figures which is something our sculptors are unable to account for at the production stage.”
Beyoncé’s devoted fans have proven they’ll always have the singer’s back, and they recently got excited after she teased another opportunity to see her on stage.
Vegas, hold your horses…wild horses that is!
Live Nation Las Vegas
Last month, Live Nation Las Vegas shared an Instagram post teasing an upcoming announcement that read, “Vegas, hold your horses…wild horses that is!”
Fans theorized that the news might be that the Texas Hold’ Em singer would reveal a residency in Sin City, especially since her latest album just dropped in March.
“If this isn’t Beyoncé yall wrong bcs yall know what you doing…” a fan commented on the post.
“Nooooo nooooooo Beyoncé I’m not ready. PLEASEEE,” a second added.
“BETTER NOT BE! I GOT RENT TO PAY HELLOOO,” a third joked.
Beyoncé wrapped up her Renaissance Tour in October and released Renaissance: A Film By Beyoncé, which documented her world tour, in theaters shortly after.
