April 28, 2011, Shanghai - Fan Bingbing, the Chinese actress who once stunned the world in a dragon robe at the Cannes International Film Festival, appeared at Madame Tussauds Shanghai for the unveiling of her wax figure. She also donated this dragon robe costume to Madame Tussauds, immortalizing this historic moment permanently at Madame Tussauds Shanghai. After completing measurements last autumn, Fan Bingbing's wax figure underwent six months of meticulous carving and crafting, finally making a magnificent appearance today in the dazzling dragon robe from Cannes. Even she herself joked that when she sent the wax figure's photo to her mom, she couldn't recognize herself.
On that day, Fan Bingbing beautifully appeared in an orange dress by TADASHI SHOJI. The day before, she was also invited by the Liberation Daily of Shanghai to be a guest at the "Cultural Forum", where she gave a speech for the first time alongside Yao Ming and Yang Liwei on the topic of "Our Common National Image". The increasingly internationally renowned Fan Bingbing frankly expressed her happiness at seeing China gaining more attention on the world stage. This appearance in the dragon robe at Madame Tussauds was made possible with the help of Madame Tussauds, which helped her immortalize this wonderful moment here forever.
It is also reported that at this year's Cannes Film Festival, Fan Bingbing will make another appearance with a new film.
