Amy Winehouse waxwork to be unveiled

Singer to be immortalised at Madame Tussauds

Amy Winehouse performed at Glastonbury on Saturday night

A lifesize model of Amy Winehouse is set to become the latest London tourist attraction.

Madame Tussauds has spent £100k on a waxwork of the Back To Black singer.

The dummy of Amy, 24, will also sport her trademark beehive and tattoos.

‘We are really pleased to be creating Amy,’ says Madame Tussauds general manager Edward Fuller.

‘Feedback for her inclusion just keeps on growing.’

The model will be unveiled later this month.

Meanwhile, Amy was pictured struggling to fit into a helicopter that took her to Glastonbury on Saturday.

Her huge beehive meant things were cramped in the cockpit.
