Madame Tussauds has said it is recreating its Nicki Minaj display after many images of visitors taking inappropriate photos with the waxwork appeared on social media.
The figure was unveiled earlier this month in Las Vegas in homage to her Anaconda music video features her hands and knees on the ground and her butt in the air – an homage to the music video for her track Anaconda.

In response to concerns Madame Tussuads Las Vegas has made this statement:
We have been made aware of the inappropriate photograph that was taken at Madame Tussauds Las Vegas, involving Nicki Minaj’s new wax figure. Madame Tussauds attractions are interactive, immersive experiences, and our visitors are generally respectful towards the wax figures. It is unfortunate that this visitor decided to behave so inappropriately and we apologise for any offence this has caused. We doh ave staff monitoring guest behaviour in the attraction and do our utmost to ensure our wax figures are treated respectfully, but on this occasion clearly one of our hosts was not present
