Rapper Lil Wayne reacted to a viral wax figure made in his likeness at the Hollywood Wax Museum in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.
On Monday, Lil Wayne, 41, took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share his thoughts.
“Sorry wax museum but dat sh*t ain’t me! You tried tho and I appreciate the effort,” the rapper wrote.
A video of the wax figure was first posted on TikTok in 2022 and has since gone viral with over 100,000 views.

Users on X mocked the artistic interpretation of the musician.
“They need to fire whoever is making these wax figures,” one user wrote.

Another user questioned whether the wax figure was artificial intelligence (AI).
One user wrote, “They did lil Wayne dirty at the wax museum.”
One user joked, “that’s (sic) lil wang.”
However, one user said they saw the resemblance.
“That wax figure look like Lil Wayne, I’m sorry,” the user wrote.
Lil Wayne isn’t the only celebrity to express his disapproval of his wax figure.
On Monday, actor Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, 51, reposted a reaction video to his wax figure at the Grevin Museum in Paris, France, whose skin appears to be much lighter than his.
“For the record, I’m going to have my team reach out to our friends at Grevin Museum, in Paris France ?? so we can work at ‘updating’ my wax figure here with some important details and improvements- starting with my skin color,” the former wrestler wrote in the caption.
