I like how they put accessories on the wax figure, because everyone knows Serena plays in ALL of her jewelry.

Good for her!
Having someone give enough of a damn to make a wax figure of you, is an accomplishment in itself im sure. I have nothing negative to say about Serena or Venus for that matter. They always hold it down and do they thang waaaaaaay BIG!!! Congrats!

I hate when people have something negative to say about her. 1)She broke history for black people 2) Her name will be in history books NOT YOURS 3) She got Common…..so she is doing something right. For once, can we have a post with her that people are not dogging her out. Get it together, post your pics and lets tear you apart.

Nothing personal, but I usually am not feeling what Serena is wearing, her style, etc, but she actually looks pretty good here in the black dress. And she looks much smaller than she normally does… she usually looks “amazon”. Nice to see that her makeup is not as harsh as it normally is too!

@19 my thought process is just fine, I just call a spade a spade. I don’t care if she brings gas prices down she still looks like a man.

The wax figure needs a nose job then it would be perfect.

@D_Marie stop hating on the sista!! She has dominant African features…so does that make her ugly? Do we have to resort to calling her “Maneka” just because she doesn’t have keen “Becky” features like you?
Maybe you’re just mad because Common is tapping that and he ain’t tapping you?

This wax figure looks terrible. they got the proportions of her upper torso wrong , that fo the wax figure is like 4 cm shorter which make her look too stocky.
then there are those fake ice teeth and they totally messed up Serena golden dark brown colouring.And er.. the chin isn’t that of Serena either.

Friday, August 28, 2009 /
I think its the nose thats throwing it all off.
It doesn’t look too bad if you look at the wax figure by itself and picture mentally what Serena looks like; but when you put the two side by side its a “swing and a miss” lol

LMAO@ #7 ok you are wrong, but on a better note I think the body looks more like hers than the face. Not too bad.

It’s sad when the selfhating blacks turn on their pwn. I’m used to the KKK folks ripping her on other blags but her OWN people? SMH

Out of all the outfits she has worn, they choose this ghetto getup to immortalize her in. The people at the museum now, are not as good as the ones back in the day. They messed up Obama’s too.

Serena is not what I call pretty, but she looks better than the statue does. I would demand a do-over on the face.

I am so excited that Serena was “immortalized” in wax, her and her sister Venus deserve the honor. However the wax sculpture looks dry and ashy. Perhaps it is nearly impossible to match the unique and beautiful skin tones of most people of color, however someone should have rubbed some Carol’s Daughter Shea Souffle on the sculpture before the unveiling LOL. Something is off in the face as well, looks more like an imitator trying to pose as Serena on crack…no I know I can’t do a better job creating an sculpture, but I sure as heck could have been on the “board of accuracy” for the creation of wax sculptures people of color division ( wonder if there is such a title/department?).

Serena is an athlete NOT a model. All women do not have to look like freakin’ models. So what you don’t think she’s cute? SO WHAT?!!! She’s doing her thing, she an inspiration to young girls, she investing and has her own business. She has nothing but positive energy and you can’t even appreciate that. Ya’ll are so damn ignorant. Give her props that she’s great at her craft and keep it moving. People love degrading women by overlooking their accomplishments and judging them on their so-called beauty. WE do it with Michelle Obama and now Serena…

The nose is off. Her bridge is not that wide and the shape of the face is slightly longer than Serena’s. I thought they do molds of the actual person before starting this, looks like they go by a picture.

That wax figure looks so real! At 1st glance I thought it was a real person posing with Serena. It doesn’t look anything like Serena, it looks younger than her because she it has real color skintone other than plastered makeup. that Serena wears

“cosign # 61 of course they didn’t want to show Serena in a positive light, that’s not their MO, jealous Mofos”
****************************
The fact is Serena wore this outfit (also the cat suit) for a season. It isn’t their fault. She chooses to wear that mess in the first place. You can’t blame everything on YT. Who’s to blame for Serena’s fashion faux paux? Come on now. Be fair.
GO VENUS,SERENA…U.S. OPEN CHAMPIONS!!!

Think the wax figure is a little off in the face. Like everyone else pointed out, they got the body downpacked. Not feeling the outfit though. She dresses way more fashionable than that of course minus the boots. Those are actually FIERCE!

WHAT THE HELL

IT KINDA LOOKS LIKE THAT JAMACIAN RUNNER, CASTER SEMENYA, THAT EVERYONE WAS QUESTIONING IF SHE WAS A MAN. LOL
