The concept here: You can now get a good idea of what it's like to be Kate Middleton by standing next to this life-sized wax model of Prince William.
American artist Jennifer Rubell unveiled her waxy William today, reports The Telegraph. He will be displayed at London's Stephen Friedman Gallery starting tomorrow and up until the couple's royal wedding at Westminster Abbey on April 29. This prince comes complete with a replica of Middleton's sapphire and diamond engagement ring, and would-be royal brides are invited to slip on the ring and stand arm-in-arm with the prince.
"It's the feminine equivalent of winning the lottery," said Rubell, 40. "William is a living Prince Charming. When reality offers you a living, breathing human being that occupies a reality that's existed for thousands of years -- that's very attractive."
Five drinks -- rum, gin, Madeira wine, whisky and sloe gin -- associated with the monarchy and British empire are also part of the exhibit, and visitors can sample them. "You can make a toast to the happy couple you've just become," says Rubell.
