Katy Perry waxwork in candy costume unveiled at Madame Tussauds for Easter

 
Final adjustments: the figure being set up at Madame Tussauds
Alexandra Rucki2 April 2014

A Katy Perry waxwork has travelled all the way from Australia to take up residence in Madame Tussauds London.

The figure is adorned in one of the singer's flamboyant costumes from Perry's California Dreams tour and will be based in the London museum over the Easter period to celebrate all things sweet.

Visitors will be treated to free sweets, while admiring the giant gummy bears, huge cup cakes and massive candy canes surrounding the I Kissed a Girl singer.

Nicole Fenner, the museum's publicity manager, said: "Katy's amazing wax figure is paying us a visit from Madame Tussauds Sydney, and as it's Easter we thought we'd pay tribute to some of the singer's famous confectionary-themed performances.

"We wanted to create something suitably fantastical and this candy-themed set is the perfect backdrop for her breath-taking outfit, which has been created especially for Madame Tussauds by Katy's own costumers.

"We know guests will love joining Katy in her special Easter candy land."

Perry, 29, worked closely with Maddame Tussauds to create the waxwork by sitting for measurements.

The figure was first unveiled in Sydney last year.
