The rapper commended Pigeon Forge for attempting to create his likeness for their Hollywood Wax Museum, but admitted 'that sh*t ain't me.'

Hip-hop artist Lil Wayne was recently honored with a wax figure of his likeness, unveiled at the Hollywood Wax Museum in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.

While he appreciated the effort, the "Main One" rapper was none too pleased by the execution, and we can't blame him.


On October 23, RapTV shared an image of his wax figure on X (formerly Twitter), and it went viral for all the wrong reasons.

Social media users thought that the end result of fake Lil Wayne standing shirtless and revealing his body tattoos bore absolutely no resemblance to the real Lil Wayne.

Not even close.


According to People magazine, the figure has been on display since 2022, based on a TikTok video that went viral.

Lil Wayne?!? Look like Lil Cane #fyp #waxmuseum #lilwayne #pigeonforge



Fans didn't hide their true feelings.







Some even trembled at the sight of it.






It didn't take long for the 41-year-old rapper to weigh in.

He said in a Monday X post:

"Sorry wax museum but dat sh*t ain’t me! You tried tho and I appreciate the effort."

Fans were here for the real Lil Wayne's response.






The scrutiny followed a similar situation with a wax figure of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson at the Grévin Museum in Paris.

After social media users criticized the waxwork for looking too "White-washed," Johnson demanded that it be updated "with some important details and improvements−starting with my skin color."

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
