6 times Austin Mahone was all of us (plus: how to "meet" him!)

 

At this exact moment, we don’t know where in the world Austin Mahone is. Maybe he’s laying down track in the recoding studio (fingers crossed for new music), shopping at Macy’s (he’s part of their new American Icons campaign) or goofing around with Becky G (not likely, but we’ll ship those two forever). 

But we *do* know where his custom-created wax figure is: Washington, D.C.—our nation’s capital and home of Madame Tussauds D.C. wax museum.

Last year, Austin met with studio artists to take more than 250 measurements and perfectly color-match his skin, hair and eyes. He worked with the Madame Tussauds pros to craft a pose that reflects his personal look. And he even donated his own clothes to put a signature stamp on the figure (including a replica of the silver bracelet Austin’s mom gave him). The result? An astonishingly realistic figure that blew Austin away with its uncanny accuracy. Mmm mmm, yeah yeah (translation: we agree).

Austin’s figure resides permanently in Orlando—but from now through July, he’ll be hanging at the Washington, D.C. location (along with the museum’s crew of all 44 U.S. presidents, superstar celebs like Beyonce and Taylor Swift, historical figures, pro athletes and more). Want to “meet” Austin and take a selfie with the swoon-worthy singer? Visit Madame Tussauds D.C. online or call 866-823-9565 to book your visit.
