Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden came face-to-face with herself this week after Madame Tussauds Blackpool added her look-a-like to their summer seaside 2026 showcase. The new waxwork made its debut on Amanda's Heart Breakfast show on Tuesday morning, where listeners got the first glimpse before it travelled north to star in the Lancashire attraction's glamorous A‑List section.

The married mother-of-three, 55, will take 'her' place in the seaside resort's star‑studded attraction starting Saturday, 28th March. Amanda said: "It’s such an incredible honour to be asked. When I was first approached, I genuinely thought it might be a joke. Seeing it today, in real life, is just unbelievable – I’m absolutely thrilled.

"I can’t wait to show my parents; they won’t be able to believe it.

"I’ve always have such a wonderful time in Blackpool. It’s a beautiful seaside town filled with warm, brilliant people. We love filming Britain’s Got Talent there – we come to Blackpool for the people, the audience always goes wild.

"I’m really looking forward to seeing the figure at Madame Tussauds Blackpool when I’m back later this year for filming."

Last year, Amanda was left speechless in the middle of hosting her radio show when surprised on‑air with an invitation from Madame Tussauds Blackpool to join their celebrity line‑up.

Amanda’s wax likeness is styled in a dazzling gold Nadine Merabi jumpsuit, capturing her signature blend of elegance, fun and show‑stopping glamour - a jumpsuit she previously wore for Heart’s Make Me a Millionaire.

The TV favourite underwent a meticulous measurement process by the highly specialised team of wax artists to ensure her figure was an exact likeness.

Janine Marshall, general manager at Madame Tussauds Blackpool, said: "Amanda Holden is one of the UK’s most recognisable and well‑loved personalities, so we’re thrilled to welcome her into our A‑List line‑up.

"Her energy, humour and style make her a perfect fit for the attraction, and we can’t wait for guests to meet her stunning new figure."

Madame Tussauds Blackpool is home to more than 80 expertly crafted wax figures. From superheroes and showbiz legends to sporting icons and members of the royal family, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
