The Tokyo location of the museums known for their life-sized celebrity figures in wax opened a dancing hologram attraction Thursday.

Visitors can waltz and disco with Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt, Lady Gaga, Beyonce and Marilyn Monroe, or pirouette in a “Swan Lake” ballet with Olympic figure skating champion Yuzuru Hanyu.

Mizuho Shinden had a dream-come-true experience with two of her favorite celebrities, Monroe and Lady Gaga.

“It looks as though I’m really there, so that’s a strange feeling. But I thought, wow, it’s like a dream to be able to dance with such amazing people,” Shinden said.
