Betty White gets wax treatment at Madame Tussauds

WASHINGTON – Actress and animal lover Betty White is joining the collection in wax at the Madame Tussauds museum in Washington.

The museum says a new wax figure of the 91-year-old White will be unveiled Wednesday. Washington Humane Society CEO Lisa LaFontaine will unveil White’s figure to pay homage to the Golden Girls star’s passion for animals.

White is the latest celebrity to take her place among the U.S. presidents in the Madame Tussauds collection.

The Humane Society also will have its mobile adoption centre at the museum Tuesday for visitors to adopt animals.
