New Jay Chou figure at Madame Tussauds HK

 　　BEIJING, Feb. 4 (Xinhua) -- A new wax figure of Taiwanese pop singer Jay Chou went on display at Hong Kong's Madame Tussauds on Monday, according to a news release posted on the museum's website.

　　Dressed in a metallic¹ silver jacket and a pair of silver trousers and holding a microphone, the wax figure depicts² Chou's looks at the time of "The Era World Concert Tour" in 2010.

　　The museum said the new figure was put on display to celebrate the upcoming Year of the Snake.

　　Its first wax figure of Chou was unveiled in October 2006. However, the model, clad in a leisure suit and standing³ by a white piano, disappointed many fans of the pop star at that time. They believed the figure was not a good likeness⁴.

　　In a bid to ensure the quality of the new model, Chou's chief hairstylist, Emily Lin, oversaw⁵ the figure's hair cutting, according to the museum.
