Rewritten Article:
Electronic music pioneer DJ Snake, one of the most famous French artists globally, unveiled his wax figure at the Musée Grévin on Tuesday, May 6th. He clinched the title as the first electronic music composer to grace the Parisian museum. "It's a slice of unsettling weirdness," DJ Snake, a.k.a. William Grigahcine, responded upon seeing the statue.
From May 7th, the public may visit the statue, situated in the Salle des colonnes alongside other illustrious wax figures like Brad Pitt, George Clooney, and Céline Dion. Delighted to be among the esteemed figures at the museum, DJ Snake stated, "I couldn't be prouder."
A Step into the Modern Era
The Musée Grévin, founded in 1882, attracts over 800,000 visitors annually. As it opens its doors to contemporary music icons, the museum now boasts the figure of Clara Luciani, who joined the collection in February.
Impressed by the dedication of the Grévin team, DJ Snake revealed the six-month process required to bring his figure to life. The statue depicts him with short hair and bleached blond locks, donning a leather jacket and trademark sunglasses.
The Stade de France: A Dream Come True
Crowned by chart-topping hits like "Lean On" and "Taki Taki," DJ Snake shares roots with France through his father and Algeria via his mother. Collaborations with A-list artists such as Travis Scott, Justin Bieber, and Lady Gaga further cement his status. Filling the Parc des Princes in Paris in 2022, he now prepares to rock the Stade de France. Approximately 80,000 tickets were snapped up within minutes in December 2023 for the show on Saturday, May 10, 2025. Tickets range from €56.50 to €98.30[1][2], and VIP tickets can be purchased through Live Nation[4].
For DJ Snake, this concert represents "the holy grail," offering him "an impression of triumphantly wrapping up the Paris concert saga." "Originally, I thought this might be my final solo concert in Paris," he told AFP on France Inter[3]. Negotiations for a new date in Algiers are underway, a move teeming with symbolism, as shared by the artist[3].
