1-9-2023 (HONG KONG) Catriona Gray, the beloved Miss Universe 2018, received a warm welcome from fans in Hong Kong as she unveiled her wax figure at its permanent home in Madame Tussauds Hong Kong.
The Filipino community in Hong Kong and visiting Filipinos are in for a delightful surprise as the wax figures of three cherished Filipino icons have been reunited at the flagship branch of Madame Tussauds Hong Kong. The trio includes Miss Universe 2018, Catriona Gray, Miss Universe 2015, Pia Wurtzbach, and the legendary boxer, “Pambansang Kamao” Manny Pacquiao. While Catriona becomes the third Filipino wax figure to grace Madame Tussauds, this marks the first time a Filipino wax figure was launched in Hong Kong with the presence of the artist. Pia’s wax figure launch took place in Manila, and Manny’s was virtually unveiled during the pandemic.
