American liberal activists still struggling with the concept that a wax figure is not meant to be real.


21st Century Wire says…


The progressive culture police are on the march again – this time to Madame Tussauds Wax Museum in New York City. The recent unveiling of the new Beyoncé wax statue sent activists into a frenzy when it was claimed that the celebrity pop singer was “too white.”


America’s unofficial cultural Stasi slammed the museum for purportedly “whitewashing” the singers skin tone.


The liberal outcry on social media prompted the museum to withdraw the statue temporarily to avoid any further uproar, confirming that it will be “off the floor until further notice.”

However, Madame Tussauds issued a statement reassuring liberal activists that nothing untoward had happened and that they only needed to readjust the lighting of their new exhibition:


“We love, respect and enjoy a working relationship with Beyoncé… We have adjusted the styling and the lighting of her figure and she is on display at  New York.”


In an interview with Entertainment Tonight museum spokesperson added, “Our talented team of sculptors take every effort to ensure we accurately color match all of our wax figures to the celebrity being depicted.”


“Lighting within the attraction combined with flash photography may distort and misrepresent the color of our wax figures, which is something our sculptors are unable to account for at the production stage.”
