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."

'Sinners' Stars Applauded For Their Incredibly Nuanced Takes On N-Word Controversy At BAFTAs

The BAFTAs celebration was overshadowed this year by a poor attempt at "inclusivity," which directly impacted the Black community when John Davidson used racial slurs against Michael B. Jordan and Delroy Lindo while they were on stage.

John Davidson, who has Tourette Syndrome, was invited to the event to celebrate the launch of the documentary about his life and condition, I Swear. Tourette's commonly causes people to make involuntary noises and gestures, and those who also have Coprolalia will frequently use profanity and other offensive words.
