PHOTOS: Nicki Minaj Gets her Own Wax Figure at Madame Tussauds

Nicki Minaj's successful music career has just hit another milestone: She has been honoured with a wax figure at Madame Tussauds in Las Vegas.

The 32-year-old rapper's likeness is at the centre of a larger display depicting a moment from her hugely successful Anaconda video. Officially unveiled at the museum on Tuesday, the provocative figure will join other artists in the attraction's Music Room.

More than 20 craftspeople were involved with the sculpting process over a period of six months. Real dancers were also on-hand, wearing costumes from the video, to flank Nicki's waxwork. See more photos after the cut.
