Taylor will join his Twilight co-star Robert Pattinson after being one of 2011's most requested

personalities. Other stars to have waxworks at Madame Tussauds include Rihanna, Justin Bieber, Britney Spears, David Beckham and Brad Pitt.

The news of Taylor getting his own waxwork comes after he, Robert and their other co-star Kristen Stewart had their hand and foot prints immortalised on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

The trio was introduced by TV talk show host Jimmy Kimmel and Stephenie Meyer who wrote all the Twilight Saga books and was cheered by the hundreds of fans who had come along to catch a glimpse of their idols. Speaking to the crowd, Taylor, 19, said: “There are a few moments that mean so much, and this is definitely one of those.”

The three stars then signed their names into the wet cement plaque which was emblazoned with the words The Twilight Saga and pressed their hands and feet in.
