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."

But when it comes to featuring a gay kiss in commercial blockbusters meant for the general mass audience, studios remain skittish and tend to leave such scenes on the cutting room floor.

Elon Musk Sued For Fraud By Petition Signers Over Million Dollar Vote Buying Scheme

Three proposed class-action lawsuits have been filed against billionaire Elon Musk alleging that his political action committee, America PAC, engaged in fraudulent practices. The lawsuits claim the PAC misled voters by promising a random $1 million cash prize, even though the winners were allegedly predetermined.

Musk established America PAC in October to back President-elect Donald Trump’s successful presidential campaign. The PAC reportedly targeted Trump supporters in battleground states, encouraging them to share personal information and sign an online petition advocating for "free speech and the right to bear arms" in exchange for a chance to win the prize.

Conservative Has Brutal Warning For GOP After Trump Picks 'Vile Sex Pest' Gaetz For AG

After President-elect Donald Trump chose Florida Republican Representative Matt Gaetz for his Attorney General, conservative commentator Ben Domenech—the co-founder of The Federalist and editor-at-large of The Spectator World—did not hold back with a warning to anyone who votes to confirm him.

Domenech highlighted that Gaetz was previously the subject of a Justice Department investigation into alleged sex trafficking involving a 17-year-old girl and has faced scrutiny from the House Ethics Committee over accusations of sexual misconduct. However, that inquiry effectively concluded on Wednesday when Gaetz announced his resignation from Congress.

In many ways, we should have all seen the recent election results coming, and chief among the missed signs is how cooked some of Gen Z's brains are.

Though the majority of the age group voted for Kamala Harris, a staggering proportion voted for Donald Trump at a far higher percentage than is typical for the youth vote where Republicans are concerned.
