Wax Wedding Axed


Waxwork models of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were scheduled to be getting married at Madame Tussaud's Las Vegas 'museum' from tomorrow, in a creepy, freeze-framed, glass-eyed ceremony that would have lasted months without ever getting anywhere.

Sadly, the slo-mo nuptials have now been nixed after Pitt's people interfered. Visitors to Tussauds are going to have to make do with a much less ceremonial premiere for their new Jolie... er... likeness...?!

[NOTE: the image here is of a different Waxelina Jolie, not the new, improved model which is, as yet, under wraps. The new Waxelina wouldn't settle for Brosnan, oh no. She'd have to have Daniel Craig sharing her plinth.

The best thing about the weird wedding set-up, however, was the selection of guests lined up to celebrate with the happy couple: George Clooney, Ben Affleck, Frank Sinatra, Elvis, Pavarotti and John Wayne. All guys, half of them already dead.

If it had been up to me, I'd have put some real mind benders in there. Maybe Groucho Marx or Peter Lorre, Zsa Zsa Gabor or Dame Edna, Melanie Blatt from All Saints or Olivia Newton John. Any better ideas?

I'm hoping the new model Angelina isn't pregnant - that way, perhaps, she could take her breathing counterpart's role in Sin City 2 and hurry things along a little.
