Further proof that celebrities care little for the general public or welfare of the business sector was given today as ramifications of the recent Pitt-Aniston split reverberated around the plush yet oddly creepy halls of London’s Madame Tussauds.
The famous wax-works, obviously believing as did the rest of us that the Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston union was forever, had created a joined wax sculpting of the pair that now needs hacking in two as according to a source provided by that reputable work of fiction, The Sun, "It was all a bit embarrassing so they had to change it."
Heaven forbid they should inadvertently make a mockery of that hallowed institution, the Hollywood relationship.
So the guy that normally spends his time melting down has-been celebrities (Michael Jackson is probably being bundled unceremoniously into the furnace as we speak), took the Official Madame Tussauds chainsaw to the perfectly proportioned uber-couple so that they could be moved into positions where they will be able to stare blankly at each other, in much the same fashion as we imagine they did during their actual relationship.
This cost £10,000.
Still, it’s all worth it just so that your average tabloid magazine reading tourist won't be confronted with some kind of bizarre celebrity based conundrum that will melt their tiny little minds.
