According to CNN.com, The 22-year-old "Rude Boy" singer's wax figure recalls the singer's trend-setting blonde cropped hairdo from 2009 and is clothed in an all-black Balmain ensemble she wore to the designer's runway show during Spring 2010 Fashion Week in Paris.

Rihanna posed next to her likeness, puckering her lips to give a smooch, in an image posted on her Twitter account.

The wax replica of the songstress can be found at the Madame Tussauds in Washington, which also houses the likenesses of other political and pop culture figures including President Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, Madonna, Angelina Jolie and Beyonce.

Madame Tussauds is also celebrating the statue with a special promotion. Visitors can get "buy one, get one free" admission to the D.C. Madame Tussauds to see the statute if visitors mention the word "Umbrella" - "ella, ella" notwithstanding - between now and Sept. 30.
