“I demand a redo damn it!!!!!!!” That was the battle cry from Kevin Hart after seeing his new wax figure, which is on display at the Hollywood Wax Museum in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee.
In a viral Instagram post that has the internet in stitches, Hart didn’t just critique the statue; he called it a personal “attack.”
The comedian spared no caps-lock in his hilarious takedown: “WTTTTFFFFF …. What did I do to these people…. This is an attack…. Who in the fk is this?????? At this point these museums are just trying to make me cry. This st has to stop…. I demand a redo damn it!!!!!!!”
While the museum (which is definitely not the world-renowned Madame Tussauds) managed to get the gold chain right, they seemingly skipped the part where they looked at a photo of Hart’s face.
Naturally, his favourite “frenemy” Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson was one of the first to twist the knife, commenting that the figure is “PERFECT” and telling the museum, “Don’t change a thing.”

The shade reached a peak when Madame Tussauds itself weighed in.
Known for their eerily accurate figures, they didn’t need a long statement to distance themselves from the Tennessee tragedy.
Their four-word reply to Hart’s post said it all: “Would never be us.”
Hart now joins a prestigious “Hall of Shame” for wax figures gone wrong.
Naomi Campbell is almost unrecognisable.
He’s in good company alongside the infamous “White Beyoncé,” the Naomi Campbell figure that looked like a rough sketch, and the legendary Nicole Kidman statue in Madrid that appeared to be mid-existential crisis.
Whether the Hollywood Wax Museum will actually melt the figure down remains to be seen, but for now, Kevin Hart is proving that a bad likeness is still great for business, especially when it’s this funny.
