Everyone celebrates Christmas in their own way. That said, I can’t imagine the holiday season without Mariah Carey. Thanks to her hit classic All I Want For Christmas is You, she’s cemented herself as the Queen of Christmas. You’ll find all sorts of jokes about Carey “dethawing” just in time for her holiday debut each year, and the singer herself absolutely loves them. Even she gets in on the fun by making videos of her own.

That said, these videos aren’t the only way Carey is celebrating this year. The beloved star recently shared that her very own wax figure has been added to a special section at Madam Tussauds in New York City. Now, I know what you might be thinking: “Wax figures rarely look accurate.” Which, honestly, is a fair reaction. But that’s what makes Carey’s new wax figure so amazing — the two look identical next to each other! In fact, I challenge you to guess which one is the real Carey…
I’ll be honest… I totally guessed wrong. While I thought the real Carey was dressed in red, she’s actually the one in the gorgeous dark dress. Mind-blowing, right?
“This is the best one I’ve seen, yet!” someone shares in the comments, with another admitting, “Why did I think it was just two pics?”

This iconic wax figure is just one of many in Madame Tussauds’ Seasons of New York City exhibit. So, if you want to admire this seasonal holiday display in person, now is the perfect time. Other celebs you can expect to see include Selena Gomez and Drew Berrymore!
“Finally found someone to help me out with the toy delivery this year!” Carey jokes in the caption of her post. “Thank you Madame Tussauds New York.”
