Kathryn Bernardo to get Madame Tussauds wax figure in 2026

Madame Tussauds Hong Kong will unveil a wax figure of Kathryn Bernardo in 2026, making her the youngest Filipino celebrity to be honored.

Bernardo expressed her gratitude, calling it a dream come true and an honor that will bring pride to Filipinos.

Her mother, Min Bernardo, expressed her joy and pride, calling the milestone surreal and highlighting her daughter's hard work.

This recognition follows her film 'Hello, Love, Again' becoming the highest-grossing Filipino movie of all time, earning ₱1.6 billion worldwide by February 2025.

Bernardo's wax figure is scheduled for unveiling next year, following her measurement session in August.

Having a statue in Hong Kong holds sentimental value as her 2019 blockbuster "Hello, Love, Goodbye" was filmed there.

Forbes Asia recognized Bernardo as one of the most influential celebrities on social media in the Asia-Pacific region in 2020.

Bernardo joins Pia Wurtzbach, Manny Pacquiao, Anne Curtis, Catriona Gray, and Lea Salonga as distinguished Filipinos with wax figures at Madame Tussauds, making her the sixth.
