Asia’s Superstar Kathryn Bernardo continues to make history as she becomes the newest Filipino celebrity to be immortalized in wax at the world-renowned Madame Tussauds Hong Kong.
In an announcement made on October 22, Madame Tussauds revealed that Kathryn recently completed her sitting session in August, where artists meticulously took hundreds of measurements and reference photos to perfectly capture her features, expressions, and personality. Her wax figure is expected to be unveiled in 2026, joining the ranks of global icons and legends displayed in the prestigious museum.

For Kathryn, the recognition is a “dream come true.” In an interview, she expressed how deeply honored and grateful she felt to represent Filipino artistry and talent on an international stage. “It’s truly an honor. Growing up, I would see all these incredible figures in Madame Tussauds, and to be part of that now feels surreal,” she said.
The actress also shared her excitement that her wax figure will be displayed in Hong Kong — a city that holds special meaning for her and her fans. It was where her record-breaking 2019 film “Hello, Love, Goodbye” was filmed, a movie that not only became the highest-grossing Filipino film of all time but also cemented her status as one of Asia’s most admired actresses.

Kathryn’s inclusion in Madame Tussauds Hong Kong marks another milestone in her career that spans over a decade of hit television shows, blockbuster movies, and countless awards. From her early days in teen dramas to her acclaimed performances in mature roles, Bernardo has proven her versatility and dedication to her craft.


With this achievement, she joins an elite group of Filipinos who have been honored by Madame Tussauds — including Pia Wurtzbach, Manny Pacquiao, Catriona Gray, Lea Salonga and Anne Curtis — all of whom have brought pride to the Philippines through their accomplishments in their respective fields.
This recognition not only highlights Kathryn’s global influence but also reflects how far Filipino talent has come in gaining international recognition. Fans across Asia have already expressed their excitement online, flooding social media with congratulatory messages and sharing their pride in seeing Kathryn represent the country once again.
In this case, we cannot question why she’s called Asia’s Superstar. Her star may dim sometimes, but it will always find its way to shine.
Congratulations our Asia’s Superstar, Kathryn!
