Horan puts finishing touches to wax alter-ego

One Direction star Niall Horan has helped to put the finishing touches to his own waxwork face as the band’s hotly anticipated lifelike figures near completion in Madame Tussauds.

The boyband reached a new level of fame last month when the museum revealed that all five members would be immortalised as wax statues which will be exhibited across the globe.

Their alter-egos will be unveiled in London in two weeks for a three-month stint before being exhibited in New York and Sydney.
