"Stephen Colbert will be featured at the Madame Tussauds wax museum in Washington, DC.  A wax figure of the Comedy Central star was unveiled at the museum on Friday (November 16), as part of a new media gallery.   The AP reports that the figure will be situated in a replica of the Colbert Report set, allowing museum visitors to set next to Colbert&amp;#039;s wax photo or pictures.  Colbert donated his own clothes to the museum in order to dress the figure, including a suit and tie, a lapel pin and cuff links.  Designers from Madame Tussauds went to Colbert&amp;#039;s New York studio in June to take more than 250 measurements and photographs of the host to create the wax figure. Speaking of the honor, he told reporters: &amp;quot;There comes a time in every great man&amp;#039;s life when he must be cast in wax - if only to remove unwanted body hair.&amp;quot; Madame Tussauds have also recently unveiled two waxworks of Rihanna and a figure of the late Steve Jobs.
