Dwayne Johnson is responding to a widely criticized wax figure of himself that was unveiled at a Paris museum.

The museum specializing in wax figures of famous people and recently revealed their attempt at a figure of the Samoan actor.

However, many criticized how much the statue actually resembled the star, noting the lighter skin tone and creepily Botox smoothed skin.

Some accused the museum of "whitewashing" the actor while others said they made him look like Mr. Clean or more so like his 'Fast and Furious' rival Vin Diesel.
