Kevin Hart Roasts His Wax Figure at the Hollywood Wax Museum in Hilarious Instagram Video
Kevin Hart had a lot to say about his new wax figure. On March 14, the comedian shared an Instagram Reel reacting to the statue at the Hollywood Wax Museum in Pigeon Forge, Tenn., and his response was equal parts disbelief and comedy.
Hart posted an IG Reel showing a wax figure of himself that was unveiled at the Hollywood Wax Museum. The figure was styled in a leather jacket and gold chain, and Hart set the video to the “Frolic” theme from Curb Your Enthusiasm — the same music that plays during that show’s signature awkward moments.
His caption didn’t hold back: “WTTTTFFFFF …. What did I do to these people…. This is an attack…. Who in the f— is this?????? At this point these museums are just trying to make me cry 🥺😂😂😂😂….. This s— has to stop…. I demand a redo damn it!!!!!!!”
What made Hart’s post spread wasn’t just his own reaction. The comments section became a pile-on from some of the biggest names in entertainment, each one adding a different kind of fuel.
Constant collaborator and costar Dwayne Johnson wrote, “It’s PERFECT. Don’t change a thing.” Eniko Hart, Kevin’s wife, commented, “ikyfl lmao.” Jameela Jamil added, “This is the worst one I’ve ever seen of anyone.” Don Cheadle wrote, “Cook. Him. 🔥🔥🔥,” and Jenni Farley commented, “I feel like @therock had something to do with this 🤣🤣🤣.”
Hart’s post didn’t emerge in a vacuum. A clear pattern has formed around celebrities reacting publicly to wax figures that miss the mark.
In 2023, Dwayne Johnson posted about his own figure at the Musée Grévin in Paris. He wrote, “I knew my boy [Jefferson Jr.] had this Rock wax statue in his roasting crosshairs,” and “Legit belly laughed at this.” But Johnson took it a step further than comedy. He said he was “going to have my team reach out to our friends” at the museum so “we can work at ‘updating’ my wax figure here with some important details and improvements — starting with my skin color.”
The museum later acknowledged the figure “was indeed whiter than it should have been” and updated it. Johnson’s reaction started as humor and turned into a pointed critique that actually produced a result. The museum changed the figure.
In October 2023, Lil Wayne also reacted to a wax figure of himself at the Hollywood Wax Museum, writing on X, “Sorry, wax museum, but dat s*** ain’t me! You tried tho and I appreciate the effort.” His tone split the difference between Hart’s theatrics and Johnson’s directness: a brief acknowledgment, a gentle rejection, and a move on.
