Forget ridiculous outfits on catwalks, we see celebrities wearing questionable clothes every day. And even though we wouldn't go out wearing a robe and chains, Funny Toheeb does. Kinda. This guy from Africa has joined the likes of Anucha "Cha" Saengchart and Sine Benjaphorn, recreating absurd celebrity looks with stuff he finds laying around in his home.

Those boots really do look like they are repurposed laundry baskets. Just because a clothing item was made by a high end fashion designer and has the price tag of a couple racks doesn't mean it's cute and should actually be worn. Sometimes I wonder if these designers are really truly laughing all the way to the bank because they can't believe people purchasing some of these rediculous things they make. Honestly. Chanel can cut arm and neck holes in a trash bag and sew a chanel label on it. Put a high dollar price tag on it and then we will see Kim Kardashian wearing it to the Grammys. And because of who made it and then who wore it .. makes it the hot item of the season. It's just sad.
So true. I’m pretty sure if I won the lottery I would not be buying all that toot. Nothing with all the names running all over it either. I find it all tacky.

Cardi B
This is the first time I haven't seen Cardi B in a slutty outfit.
"My name is Toheeb Adedokun Akorede, also known as Funny Toheeb. I impersonate celebrities. I recreate their looks with cheap materials," the entertainer told the BBC.
Jennifer Lopez
Don't, just don't try and understand it. I've given up long ago on "fashion".
Load More Replies...Rihanna
Well, Rihanna looks like the Evil Queen on the right, all hunched over lol
trying anything just to appear different but this is exactly how she looks toheeb just made a statement.
Funny Toheeb said that recreating celebrity looks isn't easy. "Sometimes when I don't know what to do with the picture, I listen to music, then go through the picture [again] and I will kill it [the look]."
Anita Joseph
I was thinking it was raffia type ribbon. It has mostly the same curls if it's been wrapped around something but still stays about halfway between an uncooked ramen noodle and a fully cooked one. Unless you're thinking of a different type of noodle than what is going on in my brain.
Load More Replies...The one on the right, hilarious, the one on the left, well, say no more !!
What material did he use for his dress? I can't decide if it's a type of thick paper or a tarp of some sort.
It looks like this kind of "plastic fabric" that used to cover kitchen tables. I think in English it's called oilcloth.

"It's not a day's job, some pictures we spend weeks [recreating them]. Sometimes we work at night. Sometimes the material will be around, like what we did with the plastic bottles, you just have to look around for it."
Beyonce
Perfect camouflage for hunting? Just don't bang that bowl into something!
Toyin Lawani
Considering it's made from paper, gold tape and ramen noodles, he did an amazing job getting it to look the same!!
Load More Replies...What's sad/funny is that HIS outfit could actually be considered "high fashion".
But in the end, it's worth it. "People laugh and that is just our main focus," he said. "Bringing people out of depression, motivation amidst depression."
"I wasn't born with a silver spoon. I actually want to be the person that will change my family's story, that is why I keep working. 'Just keep doing and keep thinking outside of the box,' that's what my mum used to tell me."
Nicki Minaj
When ypur favourite beache has an algae pest but you realise it only after swimming.
They both look like some kind of mermaid and for special effects, seaweed !!
Shaffy Bello
Curtains was the first thing that came to my mind too!! That or crinoline, like goes under a wedding dress to poof it out.
Load More Replies...Lol has anyone notice that he just disappears into the wall? Idk if its makeup or what but its funny
"I tell her I will be a big celebrity one day, she doesn't believe me." However, she better start listening to her son. As of this article, Funny Toheeb has 558k Instagram followers, and to most people, that's probably enough to be considered as a celebrity. At least an internet celebrity.
Camila Coelho
One of them will only be worn once. The other is made out of paper.
Load More Replies...Uhh, this is not that Camila. Cabello isn't the only Camila in the world.
Load More Replies...Why does her neck look like it's been decorated with vertical strips of duck-tape?
From the floating turtleneck thing toward the dress? I think it is the nude colored material they use on figure skating outfits, to make it look like they're half nude while staying part way warm. I've also noticed it on Dancing With The Stars costumes.

Ah, but no one can compare to the greatness of my husband, Jason Momoa.
Juliet Ibrahim
An old mop would have been perfect for the wig. But noodles are ok, too.
Cardi B
Probably one of the most sustainable uses of plastic actually considering that it can be reworn.
Load More Replies...Kim Kardashian
i'm pretty sure it's part of whatever he used for the hips but lmao funny coincidence
Load More Replies...Lol this dude is funny, and I don't see the appeal in the Kardashian girl, that is the weirdest shape ever, and not in a good way.
Yeah, she's one example of a bad hourglass shape.
Load More Replies...Hang on...........is that white facing????? Thank goodness it wasn't the other way round.....imagine
That was the point. He wanted to make fun of her spray tans, but he's got dark skin, so he went the other way with it. Lol.
Load More Replies...Why isnt this racisim if a black man paints his skin to be a different race ???
One word. *Takes deep breath in*. Flour.
Load More Replies...Is this whiteface?!! gasp! where is the social media?! appalled ... not
Waje
I noticed that these look a hell lot like the future fashion from the Fifth Element element movie.
I've seen The Fifth Element way more times than I like to admit, but I don't remember this white mess anywhere. The green original to gold remake does look like it could fit in that movie though.

Ok, This one made me laugh out loud, and i'm at work people. have some pity, I might get fired.
Simi
Professional photographer and his photo would look better than hers! He really nailed that one!
Beyonce
Hahahaha I'm laughing so much. His lips, his eyes, and what plant is on top of him?
Cardi B
Ebuka Obi-Uchendu
He looks really handsome in this on the right, you wouldn't immediately guess that it's made of paper
That water looks like it could be the host for all manner of bacteria and viruses!! There's some thing by his foot that would have me running!!
Load More Replies...The suit looks slick ... and the 'bangle' will sure come in handy if the suit, uh, tears.
Truth! He looks like he's struggling to breathe!
Load More Replies...I love his accessories: looks like a hospital bracelet and a roll of masking tape.
Kim Kardashian
Are those actual dollar bills? OMG-thanks, A!@#$%e for showing us what money means to you, when most of us struggle to pay the water bill.
"Hey guys, I'm rich. Also did I mention I'm rich?" what a weird outfit :(
Cardi B
He actually looks better than Cardi. I mean, anybody would if we were comparing a mediocre rapper in a bandana dress to somebody that actually put the work into creating something funny to wear that people can appreciate.
Is that what we're calling dresses these days? Apparently I have just turned into an old fogey.
Load More Replies...hey, everyone stop arguing about cardi and take a moment to appreciate his hard-earned abs
His outfit looks like something Lady Gaga would have paid several hundred thousand dollars for.
Nina Ivy
Mercy Aigbe
Not wasted. As food it's mediocre at best. As a laugh it's priceless!
Load More Replies...Noodle ruffles, noodle bracelet, noodle ring, noodle earrings. What can't noodles be used for?

Kanye West & Kim Kardashian
The sorcery is called, and get ready... FRIENDSHIP!

I guess he didn’t listen when his mom told him not to play with his food.
Wizkid
Could he have worn an actual shirt? Sure. But where's the fun in that.
I know I'm not up on Pop Culture, but I have no idea who most of these "celebrities" are. But Funny Toheeb needs to be a celebrity. LMBO
He is hilarious! JLo's outfit is just like kendall's .. lately
