Grant horrified by waxwork 'double'

Hugh Grant is horrified by his waxwork double in London's Madame Tussaud's museum, insisting it looks like Mary Poppins star Julie Andrews "on heroin".

The Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason hunk was determined his wax lookalike was flattering, so encouraged artists to measure his entire body, but he was horrified with the result and advised them to hide it away in the London museum's chamber of horrors.

He explains: "In 1994, they asked me whether I wanted to work with them in creating a wax figure and let myself be measured up, or they would do it from photos."

"To make sure the result was good, I played along and let every inch of me be measured. The result is awful! They ought to put my figure into the chamber of horrors alongside the mass murderers. I look like Julie Andrews on heroin."
