American former wrestler Dwayne Johnson, nicknamed 'The Rock', the first person to win the WWE belt for the sixth time, is the subject of a wax sculpture in a museum in Paris, the capital of France.

The wax statue of Dwayne Johnson was criticized for not accurately reflecting the actor's skin color. In fact, the actor's statue was more similar to Vin Diesel, Johnson's co-star from the 'Fast and Furious' series.

Dwayne Johnson made a statement on his social media account and said that he would reach out to the authorities at the museum and take action to "update" the statue. The 51-year-old actor stated that he would start by "correcting his skin color".
