We Met Paloma Faith! Behind the Scenes of Her Podcast Relaunch at Madame Tussauds
, by Ruth Wilbur, 2 min reading time
Mad, Sad & Bad with Paloma Faith is back, and you might spot something rather familiar on the set…
Our Bugsby Animal Print Sofa has landed at Madame Tussauds London, taking centre stage on the set of Paloma Faith’s brilliantly bold podcast.
We had the pleasure of heading down to London to help dress the set, see Bugsby in its new surroundings and, best of all, meet Paloma herself. There are some days at Vintage Sofa Co. that are a little more surreal than others.
And really, could there be a better sofa for the job?
Taking Bugsby to Madame Tussauds
With its curvaceous shape, deep seat and statement animal print upholstery, Bugsby isn't exactly a sofa designed to disappear quietly into the background. Which made it rather perfect for the occasion.
Watch What Happened
Seeing one of our sofas leave our Yorkshire home and end up on a set at Madame Tussauds London was a very proud moment for the team. Even better? We got to head down ourselves, dress the set and meet Paloma.

A Sofa Made for Maximalists
If ever there was a natural home for an animal print sofa, this was it.
Paloma Faith has long been known for her love of expressive, maximalist interiors, mixing colour, vintage influences and unexpected prints. She's even previously described leopard and tiger prints as a kind of neutral when it comes to interiors.
That's an approach we can very much get behind. We've always believed your home should reflect the person living in it. Whether that means rich velvet, hand finished leather, Harris Tweed or a full animal print sofa taking pride of place in the living room, we're firmly on the side of choosing furniture you genuinely love.
Meet Bugsby
The Bugsby Animal Print Sofa combines its statement looks with the sort of comfort you actually want to live with.
Its distinctive design features a low curved arm, camel back and wonderfully deep seat, with a serpentine sprung seat and back underneath. Foam and feather wrap seat cushions add plenty of sink in comfort, while reversible seats and scatter cushions keep the overall feel relaxed.
And then, of course, there's that print. For anyone wondering whether they can really put an animal print sofa in their living room, our answer is simple: absolutely. Your living room doesn't have to play it safe.
And keep your eyes peeled when watching the new Mad, Sad & Bad with Paloma Faith episodes. You might just recognise the sofa…
