Madame Tussauds Beijing, which opened in May in the historical Qianmen area, will soon unveil a wax figure of Chinese singer Shang Wenjie.

Shang became an overnight celebrity in 2006, when she won Hunan Satellite TV's singing contest reality show Super Girls.

Last year, a Madame Tussauds team flew from London to Beijing, where they spent hours taking measurements for Shang's wax replica.
