They are famed for their jetset lifestyles and global tours, but three of the biggest names in pop are in Blackpool for the summer.

Travelling on a heritage tram, pop princesses Adele, Katy Perry and Rihanna were given the red carpet treatment as they arrived in the Lancashire seaside town.

The singers - or at least their waxwork versions - will be the stars of Madame Tussauds in Blackpool for the school holidays, providing the ultimate opportunity for that celebrity selfie.

Girls on tour: The three pop stars arrived in Blackpool on one of the town's heritage trams

Boasting seven BRIT Awards and 17 Grammy Awards between them, the three global superstars are amongst the most successful musicians of all time.

And while the Adele wax figure keeps it classy in eveningwear, her fellow stars opt for more playful outfits.

Adele's dress is a recreation of the black lace Clements Ribeiro frock she wore to the 2012 Grammy Awards.

Rihanna is dressed in a colourful ensemble inspired by her 2010 music video for Who's That Chick' and Katy Perry styles a quirky sequinned dress decorated with lollipops, a dress worn during her 2011 world tour.

Rolling out the red carpet: Even the sun shone to welcome the stars - but organisers had to be careful they didn't melt!

Visitors to Madame Tussauds Blackpool will be able to join their heroines on stage and snap pictures with them.

Matthew Titherington, General Manager at Madame Tussauds Blackpool said: 'We're delighted to welcome the three pop powerhouses to the attraction. They're some of the biggest names in music so we're expecting fans to go wild for the girls.

'The figures will be on show throughout the summer holidays so it's a perfect time to visit for our unique celebrity experience.'
