I went to the Football Museum in February and can honestly say that the Michael Jackson statue is the best thing in there. Utter shite.

SirBalon 2,674 Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 This is a famous case of this woman (above) that walked into her local church in Spain where she decided to restore a famous painting of Christ.

He's obviously very distraught about the whole thing and at the end of the day he was only trying his best. I think most people watching would have been hoping his renewed statue would be good. The more the video and new statue can be shared the better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bozziovai 195 Posted March 30, 2018 Share Posted March 30, 2018 he got famous for the wrong reason. was it due to time constraint that he submitted the finish product as ugly as that ??? or was that the best he could do ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan 16,009 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 statue has been replaced Quote A statue of Cristiano Ronaldo that was widely mocked and left football fans scratching their heads has been replaced. The bronze bust of the Real Madrid and Portugal forward went viral with people questioning its resemblance to the player, after it was placed on display at Madeira airport last year. Some compared its likeness to former Republic of Ireland captain Niall Quinn, but sculptor Emanuel Santos said his work was just "a matter of taste". The airport has replaced his original effort with a bust that boasts a greater likeness to Ronaldo. According to Madeira Island News, Ronaldo's family made the request for the replacement through the CR7 Museum, which is based on the Portuguese island. The switch took place on the same day that Ronaldo, 33, scored a hat-trickagainst Spain in Portugal's World Cup opener in Russia. But the change has not gone down well with everyone and a petition has been started to bring the old sculpture back. "The bust is more an attraction for our island today and we can not accept in any way its replacement," the petition says. The original statue was revealed in March last year at a ceremony to name Madeira's airport after Ronaldo, who is a local hero on the island for what is seen as his rags-to-riches success. Santos later had a second attempt to silence his critics with a second sculpture of Ronaldo, commissioned by the website Bleacher Report.
