They're meant to pay tribute to historical figures or delight visitors, but these statues are so hideous or bizarre they have become tourist attractions in their own right.
這些雕塑本是為紀念歷史人物或是讓游客賞心悅目，可這些雕塑真是丑出天際、怪異得匪夷所思——憑借這點出其不意，成為了一道獨特的旅游風景線。

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but the monuments are mocked for looking nothing like their namesake or being erected in the first place.
情人眼里出西施，但人們嘲笑這些雕塑長得名不副實，其形象或同一開始建立的初衷完全背道而馳。

Such was the case in London when a 7.5-ft tall statue of pop star Michael Jackson was unveiled at Craven Cottage, the ground of Fulham Football Club, in 1999.
倫敦7.5英尺高的流行天王邁克爾·杰克遜雕塑就是這么一個例子，該雕像于1999年在富勒姆足球俱樂部克拉文農(nóng)場球場上公布于眾。

Fans hated the sculpture, commissioned by then-owner and Jackson’s friend, Mohamed.
該雕像是由杰克遜的朋友、也是這座雕像當時的所有者穆罕默德出資設立的，但粉絲們非常討厭這座雕塑。
