Yesterday Lindsay Lohan was the latest celeb to be added to Madame Tussauds Wax Museum. This place creeps us out a little bit, but look at that resemblance - the photo to the right is of her wax statue. Is that a Balenciaga bag? Anyway, little fuss was made about this, as we can't seem to find anything in the local papers. Lohan herself didn't even show up to the unveiling (as celebs often do).
We can't help but wonder, is Lindsay Lohan the next Alec Baldwin? The Long Islander will be hosting SNL for a third time this year, is a gossip column fave and also sports a wannabe actor sibling...the similarities are all there. We can only hope that in a few years time some wax will have to be added to her faux figure in the museum, as she becomes the great bloated character actor we all know she can be.
