Beyoncé's Winning Streak Continues as She Brings Grammy's Glory to Madame Tussauds Sydney
'The timing couldn't be more perfect as her stunning figure's unveiling comes fresh off the back of Queen B's show-stopping Grammy Awards appearance, where she further cemented her legacy as the most decorated artist in Grammy history by winning Album of the Year for the first time,' said Georgia Hooper, Executive at Madame Tussauds Sydney. "She's been at the top of the guest's request list, so we're excited to finally welcome the world's biggest superstar to Sydney. Her arrival transforms our Illuminate Sydney zone into the ultimate A-list party – after all, it's not really a party until Beyoncé arrives."
Sydney's newest A-list resident brings an unmistakable air of superstardom to the attraction's Illuminate Sydney zone and is wearing a stunning recreation of her iconic 2023 Grammy Awards gown, celebrating the groundbreaking Renaissance era that has redefined modern pop culture.
It's the first time Beyoncé has taken residence at Madame Tussauds Sydney and now she's here to stay! The meticulously crafted figure took nine months to create and will take centre stage in the attraction's A-list zone, Illuminate Sydney, where guests can strike their fiercest pose alongside the music industry's reigning Queen.
Guests are invited to get in "formation" and create their own Grammy-worthy moments with one of entertainment's most influential icons. For more information and to book tickets, visit https://www.madametussauds.com/sydney

Will Beyoncé's 'Act III' Be a Rock Album? Here's Everything We Know So Far
The Beyhive is buzzing! Now that Beyoncé has officially ended her record-breaking Cowboy Carter Tour, fans are beginning to speculate about what's in store for the third (and final) act of her trilogy. Here's everything we know so far about the project. So far, Beyoncé has dabbled in different genres for each act (dance/electronic for Renaissance and country for Cowboy Carter), so it makes sense that she would dip into something entirely new for act III. On August 4, rumors began to swirl when she and Levi's released a new ad titled 'The Denim Cowboy.' At the start of the clip, she's shown riding a horse in a white T-shirt, jeans, and a cowboy hat. But by the end, she's ditched the hat, changed into a rhinestone-studded denim set, and rides off on a motorcycle. Could that allude to the next act? The Beyhive seems to think so. The rumors that Beyoncé would make a rock album first popped up once it became clear that each act would have a distinct sound, and the Levi's ad further fueled the speculation. If Act III is indeed rock, Beyoncé has been dropping hints for a while now, which she's historically been known to do. (Remember when she posted a photo of her sniffing a lemon months before Lemonade dropped? No hint is too small!) In recent months, she's paid homage to rock legends on her Instagram, like Prince and Betty Davis. Last February, she even rocked a mullet for CR Fashion Book. And as for the motorcycle, that motif was first introduced in her 2022 British Vogue cover story spread. While we await an official Act III announcement from Mrs. Carter, we'll keep our eyes peeled for any other little hints she teases us with.
