"So @PointlessBlog & I have been asked to be made into wax figures for Madame Tussauds!" Zoella tweeted to her fans. "BEYOND EXCITED. Such a cool opportunity :)"Alfie simply wrote: "ZOE & I ARE GOING TO BE WAX FIGURES IN MADAME TUSSAUDS!!"The couple had their first sitting for sculptors on Monday, and in the four-hour meeting they agreed to donate their own clothes for their waxworks to wear.Zoella's main YouTube channel has more than seven million subscribers, while Alfie's PointlessBlog channel has just under four million.
