Take a look at the picture on your right. Yes, it's everyone's favorite talented beehived, bordering-on-crackorexia Amy Winehouse.
But wait a second - that's not really Miss Rehab Winehouse, that's a wax figure of the tortured prey of tabloids. The uncanny wax figure of the singer was recently unveiled at Madame Tussauds in central London on July 23, 2008.
I would like to say that I was one of the first people who listened to her mind-blowing throwback music, but that's a bunch of bull.
Sure, she has been the butt of so many jokes and has been caught by the vicious paparazzi while looking like a straight up ragamuffin urchin, but when it boils down to it, Winehouse is going to be remembered (by me at least) for her trademark skyscraper 'do, ballerina flats, bad girl tatts, skinny jeans, Cleopatra-like eyeliner, throwback minis and most of all, the distinct bluesy drawl.
I would like to think that this dead-on replica of Amy was during her hey days; when we didn't know about her alleged drug use and before she totally screwed up her performance of "Beat It" with Charlotte Church like a drunken uncle doing karaoke. (click here to watch the trainwreck in question).
With this wax figure, the iconic style imagery of Amy Winehouse can forever be captured in suspended animation.
And one more thing - are her calf muscles really that defined?
