Middle Age Hollywood

Glee star Jane Lynch has admitted that it was "freaky" to see herself immortalised in wax for the first time.

The actress unveiled the statue - based on her character Sue Sylvester - at Madame Tussauds in Hollywood yesterday. It depicts her wearing Sylvester's signature tracksuit and holding a loudspeaker.

"Oh my God. Unbelievable. This is too much, it's too weird," she said when she saw the waxwork for the first time. "I feel like I'm seeing myself in a coffin or something!"

She added to BBC News that she had been "overwhelmed by the likeness and artistry" in the creation, saying: "No detail was spared and I think she looks exactly like me. It's really freaky!"

According to People, the actress spent around four hours having her measurements taken to help with the waxwork's construction.
