Sinéad O’Connor waxwork pulled from Dublin museum after backlash

It must have been sculpted by the same guy who did the first Lucille Ball statue (aka "Scary Lucy") in Jamestown, NY.

Wax figures are so... hit and miss.

I have no artistic talent. When I attempt to draw something, I can see it's not going well. Do these wax artists have the same experience? They have to see it's not going right. Do they figure there's no turning back and just submit the project, anyway?

I think it looks like her. It’s not like she looked human in life.

O'Connor (in her youth) had a perfect oval face. Her features were harmonious with the exception of her unusually large eyes with a slight upward tilt at the end.

The waxwork made her nose too short, face too wide and eyes too small.

She was really beautiful when she was young. That waxwork looks like a weird fetal adult.

The head is a weird shape, but the face looks just like her.

I never thought she was beautiful, just striking with the shaved head. With hair she’s pretty ordinary.

Talented, yes. Beautiful, no.

I always thought she looked like Winona Ryder.

At least Celine Dion won’t have this problem, since she’s already morphing into a statue.
