Jeff Goldblum Urges Fans to Use Hashtag for Wax Figure

Jeff Goldblum, guest hosting on Jimmy Kimmel Live, took the opportunity to advocate for a personal cause: the creation of his first wax figure. In a spirited opening monologue, Goldblum expressed solidarity with Taylor Swift's fans, known as Swifties, following the unveiling of a controversial wax figure of the pop star at the Panoptikum Wax Museum in Hamburg, Germany. He humorously called for the removal of the figure, rallying his own fans, whom he affectionately referred to as "Blumies," "Goldies," or "Jeffies." Goldblum lamented the absence of a wax figure of himself, noting that the closest he has come was a 25-foot statue in London commemorating the 25th anniversary of Jurassic Park in 2018. He expressed a mix of humor and insecurity about being perceived as "unwaxable," questioning whether he had inadvertently offended the renowned Madame Tussaud. While he acknowledged he did not feel entitled to a wax figure, he expressed a desire not to be considered unwaxable. In a light-hearted call to action, Goldblum encouraged his fans to share their support on social media, suggesting they use hashtags to promote the idea of a wax figure. However, he quickly realized the potential backlash, humorously cautioning against one particular hashtag. As the Swifties continue to criticize the museum's portrayal of their idol, Goldblum's quest for a wax figure may stir similar sentiments among his own fanbase.
