This wax figure of Nicki Minaj has people doing a triple take

Cape Town – Wax museum Madame Tussauds is famous for lifelike replicas of famous faces from the world of pop culture.

The original location is in London, and there are branches all over the world that sees loads of visitors every year.

One of those branches, in Berlin, has the internet talking for all the wrong reasons after unveiling a statue of Nicki Minaj on Tuesday. Let's just say, it looks well-made, but it also definitely doesn't look like the famous rapper in her iconic video for Anaconda, as it was clearly aiming to.

As one Twitter user aptly wrote: "Looks like Nicki min-NAH."
