The wax figure of actor Gerard Depardieu has been removed from Paris’ most famous wax museum, after negative reactions from visitors over allegations about his conduct with women, the museum said on Monday.

The decision to remove the figure from the Grevin Museum followed a recent report about him on French television that has dented his reputation in France and around the world.
