00:00It is a great feeling to be the first female professional footballer to be in Madame Tussauds
00:22London.
00:23That's incredible.
00:24I'm really thankful to the fans.
00:25Hopefully they enjoy it.
00:26It's another first in a few years of many firsts, so it's really special.
00:33Working with the artists so far has been really, really cool.
00:36People can be really in your face, like looking at your eyes, your teeth, and that can be
00:39quite invasive, but everyone's worked really hard to just try to make me as comfortable
00:43as possible.
00:44I'm like looking up at myself, it's so weird.
00:47It's a bit weird looking at myself, but yeah, I think the guys have done an amazing job.
00:51This is all your work, all you're doing.
00:54You voted for me.
00:55I am so excited.
00:56I can't wait for you all to see it.
