Agnez Mo: First Indonesian Star at a US Madame Tussauds
Agnez Mo has made history in Hollywood. The Indonesian singer, songwriter and actress is now the first celebrity from Indonesia to have a wax figure on display at a Madame Tussauds in the United States, with her likeness officially unveiled at Madame Tussauds Hollywood.
For fans across Southeast Asia, it is a proud moment: one of the region's biggest stars standing shoulder to shoulder with the A-listers who line the famous attraction beside the TCL Chinese Theater.
- Who: Agnez Mo, the Indonesian singer, songwriter and actress, and breakout star of Reacher Season 4 on Amazon Prime.
- What: Her official wax figure, the first for an Indonesian celebrity at a Madame Tussauds in the United States.
- Where: Madame Tussauds Hollywood, next to the TCL Chinese Theater.
The figure captures Agnez in the black sequined jumpsuit from her 2023 music video "Get Loose" with Ciara, down to the hooded silhouette and the deep red lip.
"Being celebrated at Madame Tussauds Hollywood is an incredible honor, but what makes this moment truly meaningful is what it represents," Agnez said at the unveiling. "A little girl who never quite fit in, who refused to let the world define her limits, and who turned being different into her greatest strength."
She had a message for anyone who has ever felt out of place: "To every little kid who's ever felt too different, too strange, or simply misunderstood: you were never meant to fit into someone else's mold. Stay raw. Stay authentic. Dare to be disruptive."
A year in the making
A single Madame Tussauds figure takes a team of around 20 artists roughly one year to complete. The work runs from hundreds of research images through sculpting, moulding and hand painting, with every strand of hair and the exact shade of the eyes placed by hand.
"We are excited to have Agnez's figure join us here in Hollywood," said Jesse Harbison, General Manager of Madame Tussauds Hollywood. "This is a historic moment that serves as an inspiration for others following in her footsteps."
Guests can meet the figure now at Madame Tussauds Hollywood, where more than 125 figures from film and television are on display without velvet ropes or barriers.
