World famous wax museum Madame Tussauds announced this week that their latest celebrity wax figure will be of west coast rap legend Snoop Dogg.
The museum is set to unveil the rapper's wax sculpture at The Venetian Resort-Hotel-Casino in Las Vegas on Monday (April 20), and Snoop is scheduled to be on hand for the ceremony, along with 50 members of his Pomona Steelers football team.
It is said to feature clothing Snoop Dogg himself donated, including a baseball jacket from his Rich & Infamous clothing line.
The life-size likeness of the rapper was handcrafted in Madame Tussauds' London studios at a cost of $300,000.
Snoop joins only two other rappers to be immortalized by the famous museum. The other two are the late Tupac Shakur, and the Notorious B.I.G.
In addition to their Vegas location, Madame Tussauds also has locations in Amsterdam, Berlin, New York City, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Washington, D.C.
