Name Daniel Edwards may not ring a bell, but you may remember pictures of Paris Hilton's Autopsy hat featured statue of Paris Hilton with legs spread and open abdomen revealing her intestines. Paris holds a cell phone in her hand and wears a tiara on her head.

Daniel Edwards is a New York based sculptor known for his specialty - bizarre sculptures of celebrities. The statue of Paris Hilton was done after she was arrested for driving under influence and Daniel Edwards said it was meant to serve as a warning against drunk driving.

This is what Paris Hilton Autopsy by Daniel Edwards looked like:


And a close up of her torso with her dog on her chest


Daniel Edwards had previously created a sculpture of Hillary Clinton. Calling it "Presidential Bust", the statue was exposed at the museum of sex in New York. Daniel Edwards said he hopes this Hillary Clinton sculpture will spark a debate about politics, celebrity and sex.

This is the artist looking at his creation in the museum of sex


And a detail of Hillary Clinton's presidential bust


Another one of Daniel Edwards' controversial statues features dead body of Prince Harry. Daniel created this sculpture last year in October after rumors that Prince Harry is thinking of getting deployed to fight in the Middle East. As we know, Prince Harry did go to Afghanistan and is already back. The statue features dead body of Prince Harry with an army helmet at his feet and a vulture staring at his crotch.



Another famous piece of Daniel Edwards features Britney Spears giving birth. Britney is portrayed in life size kneeling in a bear rug, holding bear head with her ass high in the air. She is shown giving birth with baby head coming out of her vagina. The baby is supposed to be Britney Spears' son Sean Preston.





Daniel Edwards is also the artist who bronzed first shit of Suri Cruise - a child of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. Online Casino GoldenPalace.com bought bronze celebrity baby poop for $10 000.



The latest creation of Daniel Edwards is a golden burial mask of Oprah Winfrey. What will be next, Mr. Daniel Edwards?

I love Daniel Edwards' art. Very provokative but always bearing some subtone - hidden liaisons that poke your subconsciousness. He's good

Even the dog wears tiara in Paris Hilton sculpture

Nice work hands down. I love whom he chooses as muses for his work. Always the highest profile celebrity. There are thousands of women who give birth every day, but none of them is as high profile as Britney Spears. I love his thinking. Great work, Daniel Edwards... Great work

This is what full scale sarcophagus of Oprah Winfrey looks like as depicted by sculptor Daniel Edwards courtesy of Leo Kesting Gallery



A half scale sarcophagus is already being exhibited in Gardenfresh Gallery in Chicago. Oprah Winfrey is depicted in the nude with vertical stripes throughout her naked body.

All of his work is great. I could do without Suri's poop though....lol. I guess it's a good example of how Hollywood makes a big deal out of stupid shit....or in this case first shit....lol.

I think Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes hired Daniel Edwards to bronze Suri's poop. Hence it's not really his creation, he was just the artist who made the poop eternal in exchange for check with Tom Cruise's name on it

I should have known that they would come up with some crazy shit (literally) like that....lol. What did they do? Keep it in a baggie until they were able to give it to Daniel Edwards?....lol.

That poor girl is going to grow up just to find that her crazy ass parents made a permanat embarrassment for her for all the world to see. I mean, how would you feel if you discovered that your first shit was on display for the whole world to see....lol
