Madame Tussauds Unveiled Mohammed Assaf’s Wax Figure At Ain Dubai
Madame Tussauds just unveiled the second Middle East wax figure in Dubai. We’re so PUMPED! Can they just open already? The first was of course Balqees. The second is also a singer and is definitely popular in the region. He is in fact the winner of the second season of Arab Idol. He is Mohammed Assaf of course!!
The show was watched by millions around the world and his winning was definitely celebrated in Gaza. His story from rags-to-riches was actually covered in a biopic The Idol, in 2015, which was directed by the renowned filmmaker Hany Abu-Assad.
Mohammed Assaf met his wax figure inside the largest observation wheel in the world, Ain Dubai
Although Ain Dubai is technically not open to the public yet, it was the perfect place for Mohammed Assaf to meet his wax figure twin
Madame Tussauds will be near Ain Dubai on Bluewaters Island and Ain Dubai will open on October 31. The Palestinian singer was WOWED when he laid eyes on his twin. His reaction was priceless and was caught on video which we love!
Assaf is in fact the first celeb to step foot inside of Ain Dubai’s 48 uber-luxurious cabins.
Today marks a very special occasion as I got to uncover my wax figure. I am very happy to be featured among some of the biggest names in the world at Madame Tussauds when it opens later this year in the beautiful city of Dubai. I am very impressed with the resemblance the figure holds to me and I cannot wait for everyone to visit the attraction and see it.
