The `You Belong With Me` singer is the latest star to be honoured with her own replica figure by famous museum Madame Tussauds and was so happy with her likeness - unveiled in New York yesterday (27.10.10) - she immediately tweeted a picture of it with the caption "bring on the pretenders".

Both the singer and her stylish double wore a shimmering black and silver dress by British designer Jenny Packham for the unveiling.

The singer spent three hours with a team of Madame Tussauds studio artists last winter who flew from London to Nashville to take hundreds of precise measurements and photos in order to make the likeness.

Although the 20-year-old singer claimed to be delighted with her new doppelganger, there has been some debate about the wax figure`s hair which is different to Taylor`s usual tightly wound curls.

It was recently reported that Taylor has started dating `Brokeback Mountain` actor Jake Gyllenhaal after the pair spent Sunday (24.10.10) holding hands and looking loved-up whilst on a romantic walk around Brooklyn, New York.

An onlooker said: "Taylor and Jake were walking around Park Slope holding hands. They looked like a couple!"
