Wendy Williams has met her perfect match.
Madame Tussauds has unveiled their wax figure of the 56-year-old talk show host and the accuracy of the statue has received the endorsement of the diva herself. How you doin’?
Williams shared an image alongside her inanimate and flawless doppelganger on Instagram.
“Another historic day in Wendy History. I’m so excited to be part of @madametussaudsusa and glad that my son was with me on such a special day,” she captioned the photo.
In the pic, Williams (left) is decked out in a rainbow striped dress while seated next to her wax figure (right), which is wearing an orange jumpsuit and white Gucci sneakers. Williams’ son, Kevin Hunter, Jr., stood behind his mother and her new lifelike bestie.
Williams included the unveiling in a segment of her talk show on Monday and welcomed Madame Tussauds' Matthew Clarkson to describe the extremes the organization takes to make sure every detail is on point.
"So the hair was over five weeks of work. Every strand is inserted individually. It's human hair, ethically sourced, of course," Clarkson said. "She's got your signature W necklace. As you know, we raided your closet for the jumpsuit and the Gucci shoes. A little Easter egg, the watch is set to 10 a.m. It's fantastic. What do you think?"
Williams had nothing but praise for her lookalike.
"I think it's wonderful. You did a superb job,” the outspoken host said. “You got all the skin complexion, all the hair compilations, the eyebrows that I wear. … I want to thank my glam squad for working so hard with you guys and you guys being so accepting."

Williams later showed up to Madame Tussauds in New York City to offer her gratitude to the museum’s staff.
"When I first saw it this morning on the actual talk show, I couldn't believe it," Williams said, according to Entertainment Tonight. "I was blown away. I had no criticisms."
