Reality TV mogul Andy Cohen has been immortalized in wax by the famed Madame Tussaud's, and the Bravo boss quipped that the model crafting process was ... comprehensive.
Andy has been having something of a rough year so far — he's faced Real Housewives lawsuits, he voiced his fear of getting "cancelled," he worried fans with what they called a "dark demeanor," and recently, Kenya Moore's ex-husband called him Bravo's "snake-in-chief."
Not too long ago, Andy also candidly admitted that he felt hurt that Watch What Happens Live is left out of the late night TV club — and as such, he likely appreciated being added to Madame Tussaud's even more.
Back in January, Madame Tussaud's – a wax museum dating back to the Victorian era – shared a YouTube video about the making of Andy Cohen's wax sculpture:
It typically takes three to four months for Madame Tussaud's to complete a wax figure, and Andy's was recently unveiled.

On August 15, Madame Tussaud's shared Andy's first look at his wax doppleganger via Instagram, in a Reel captioned:
"Calling all Bravoholics - Andy Cohen's new wax figure is here!
"See the iconic Bravo Clubhouse set come to life as YOU become the next guest on 'Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.' Only at Madame Tussauds New York!📺"
Andy was visibly excited and stunned when he saw it, and after examining the replica of his Watch What Happens Live set.
He described the wax sculpture and set as "really special," and gushed:
"I think I can walk on 42nd street and croak and it'll all be good.
"I have a star at the Hollywood Walk Of Fame, and now I'm in Madame Tussaud's, it's - I'm done!"
Andy also did an interview with Extra!, discussing his newly-unveiled wax likeness:
The interviewer asked Andy what the "creepiest detail" of the wax figure was, and Andy said: "my crossed eyes."
Andy also unveiled the sculpture on the August 15 edition of Watch What Happens Live, and on his late night show, he discussed some of the figure's more private details.
Specifically, he told Real Housewives Of Orange County's Tamra Judge that the waxwork is indeed quite thorough.
Per People, Andy joked that Madame Tussaud's covered every detail of his physique during their fabrication process:
"Cohen went on to joke to guest Tamra Judge that the figure is 'anatomically correct.'
"'I think wax Andy is cuter. He's got it going on,' he said on the show. 'I'm actually a little jealous of wax Andy!'"
Although we found no definitive word on whether Madame Tussaud's wax sculptures are "anatomically correct," it appears they in fact are not.
On Watch What Happens Live, Andy again spoke about how momentous the honor was for him, recalling a visit to Madame Tussaud's in London in 1988.
He mused:
"Back then I never thought I would be immortalized among the pop culture greats ... I'm pinching myself. It's an incredible honor."
People also quoted John Stamos' Instagram comment congratulating Andy:
"WOW ! Do you have your own wax figure? That’s the first time I’ve been jealous of you. OK maybe the second time."
On Instagram, commenters were in agreement that Andy Cohen's wax sculpture was uncommonly realistic, and one remarked:
"This might be the realistic one I have ever seen, my mouth dropped ❤️"
Andy said he was "very flattered" by the attention to detail, and repeatedly said he wanted to go show it off to Anderson Cooper.
