Kevin Hart Reflects on His Childhood Ahead of New Series ‘Lil Kev’ (Exclusive)
Kevin Hart is melting down over his new wax statue.
The comedian didn't hold back when sharing what he thought of his wax form after seeing the new figure debuted at Hollywood Wax Museum in Pigeon Forge, Tenn.
The Jumanji actor was depicted wearing a black T-shirt with a leather jacket, black pants and a gold chain around his neck. However, his facial features were noticeably different on the statue, with a lighter skin tone, higher hair volume, and more pronounced jawline—and Kevin made his feelings clear.
“WTTTTFFFFF …. What did I do to these people,” the 46-year-old wrote in an Instagram post on March 14 beside a video of the wax figure. “This is an attack…. Who in the f--- is this??????”
“At this point these museums are just trying to make me cry,” the actor continued, adding a bunch of cry-laughing emojis. “This s--- has to stop…. I demand a redo damn it!!!!!!!”
The Ride Along alum’s point was proven further in the video—which was set to Curb Your Enthusiasm's “Frolic" theme—by giving a head-to-toe view of the smiling statue, including its base which read “Kevin Hart.” Above the clip read the caption, “I know this ain’t Kevin Hart.”
Though Kevin was clearly not thrilled with the wax figure, some of his followers couldn’t help but find humor in the situation. In fact, his Jumanji costar Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson quipped, “It’s PERFECT. Don’t change a thing.”

Meanwhile, Jenni “JWOWW” Farley joked, “I feel like @therock had something to do with this.”
Some followers suggested the statue resembled two other celebrities, with one writing, “You asked for Kevin Hart and got Kevin The Weeknd,” and another adding, “Ice Cube + Kevin Hart =”.
Kevin is just the latest star to stir up debate when it comes to his wax figure.
Earlier this year, Zendaya’s wax figure at Madame Tussauds in New York City polarized the internet, with some claiming it looked nothing like her. And Justin Bieber's wax figure at Madame Tussauds Hollywood also got people talking in 2024.
But not all statues have been critiqued. In fact, Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran’s wax figures at the Panoptikum museum in Hamburg, Germany impressed many fans.
