On Tuesday night, a picture of what is purportedly a Beyoncé wax figure at Madame Tussauds started making the rounds on Twitter. The image was notable because the figure in question looks absolutely nothing like Bey. In addition to having almost zero facial similarity to the singer, the figure is noticeably whiter than real-life Beyoncé.
Twitter immediately hopped on it, cracking jokes and pointing out that Beyoncé has been done dirty by wax figures in the past.

Podcast host Shaun Lau pointed out that in different Madame Tussauds locations, Beyoncé is wearing the same outfit, but has what seems to be a completely different face.

Whoever it looks like, it's definitely not Beyoncé.
