The less creepy looking one is the real Betty...still confused?
Straight from madametussauds.com:
Madame Tussauds Hollywood and Betty White unveiled the first ever Betty White wax figure on June 4th at the Madame Tussauds Hollywood attraction.
The unveiling of the Betty White wax figure made history, as she is the oldest celebrity to sit for Madame Tussauds artists.
Truly the original “America's Sweetheart,” Madame Tussauds is thrilled to celebrate the actress’ accomplishments in film, television and influence in pop culture, timed to her 90th birthday and her recent comedy smash “Hot in Cleveland” on TV Land and "Betty White's Off Their Rockers" on NBC.
Another iconic Hollywood notable, Pink’s Hot Dogs, served an exclusive hot dog in Betty's honor. Dubbed the "Naked Dog" because that’s the only way Betty takes her hot dogs- plain and simple!
Betty’s figure will join the ranks of Hollywood legends including Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart, as well as Hollywood’s new guard of icons like Lady Gaga, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, and Will Smith.
"I want to thank Madame Tussauds Hollywood for taking their sweet time in making my wax figure,” said White. “Would it have killed them to do this 50 years ago before gravity took over?,” she quipped.
“Seriously though, it will be an honor to stand among the greats like George Burns and Lucille Ball.”
Here's my beef with this...why did they wait? She should have been immortalized as Rose. And they lost their chances to get Dorothy, Blanche and Sophia! Bad choice there, Madame (OK, so maybe it was Bea, but I can't stay mad at her). I won't go into the fact that she looks a bit off, and they didn't old lady-up her hands. Can't expect 100% perfection.
And her cute little interview:
