Earlier this year, Madame Tussauds announced that both Anitta and Maluma will be the next Latin music stars to get their own wax figures.
“I’m a big dreamer,” the Colombian artist previously said of the honor. “I remember when I was in high school saying that I wanted to be here at the museum and everything is happening; nothing is too big to make it happen.”
The Madame Tussauds wax museum, which was founded in 1835 in London, has a number of locations across the U.S., including in Hollywood, New York, Las Vegas and Orlando, to name a few.
In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, see all the Latin music stars who have their wax figures at the renowned museum.

The wax figure — which will take nearly six months and 20 studio artists in London to create — will arrive at Madame Tussauds Orlando in 2022.
