Waltz with Leo, Brad or Beyonce?

The Tokyo location of Madame Tussauds wax museum, known for their life-sized celebrity figures in wax, opened a dancing hologram attraction on Thursday.

Visitors can waltz and disco with Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Lady Gaga, Beyonce and Marilyn Monroe, or pirouette in a Swan Lake ballet with Olympics figure skating champion Yuzuru Hanyu.

Mizuho Shinden had a dream-come-true experience with two of her favourite celebrities, Monroe and Lady Gaga.

“It looks as though I’m really there, so that’s a strange feeling. But I thought, wow, it’s like a dream to be able to dance with such amazing people,” Shinden said.

But it was unsettling for Tomoaki Ishizuka, who found himself dressed in a ballet leotard alongside Hanyu.

“I saw myself dancing with other ballerinas, so that was disgusting — but it was disgusting because it looked so real,” said Ishizuka.

Participants get a 3D face scan, which is transposed onto a hologram dancer for the 90-second presentation.

The attraction is one of the ways the centuries-old museum is exploring of interacting with celebrities in a digital age.
