MIDTOWN — Madame Tussauds in Times Square plans to immortalize pop diva Lady Gaga and is looking to fans for help picking the outfit of her wax doppelganger, according to MTV.com.

"We're open to hearing from fans about which looks they want," a spokesperson told MTV.

Fans will have plenty of ensembles to choose from, as the singer is known for her outrageous, inventive and often scandalous fashions.

The museum urged the star's "little monsters" to weigh in on their favorite outfits at NYCwax.com, the museum's website. Twitter was already abuzz with suggestions Friday morning.

"I think the GaGa wax figure should wear an outfit from the vmas," tweeted user GaGaJess.

The wax Gaga will debut at the Times Square museum, but the popular tourist attraction is reportedly spending more than $1.5 million to create "many" versions of Gaga for some or all of the museum's 10 worldwide locations.

The Upper East Sider's statue should be ready by the end of the year, according to MTV.
