Face to face with his wax figure: British rapper Stormzy describes it as a surreal experience.
London – British rapper Stormzy has described the unveiling of a wax figure of himself at the London tourist attraction “Madame Tussauds” as one of his “proudest moments”.
It was the “craziest, sickest, scariest and most surreal experience” to meet yourself in 3D, but he feels very honored, said the 28-year-old superstar, according to a statement.
With bulletproof vest
The figure, which shows him with a bulletproof vest in the Union Jack look, was therefore revealed on Wednesday evening in the presence of Stormzy. He wore a similar vest at a legendary appearance at the Glastonbury Festival 2019. He wanted to draw attention to the rampant knife crime among young people in Great Britain.
The rapper, who has caused a sensation in recent years with songs like “Big For Your Boots” and has won tons of prizes in Great Britain, says he has a clear idea of what he wants to achieve. To be immortalized at Madame Tussauds is part of it, says Stormzy. dpa
