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.

"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.

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]."

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.

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."

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."

"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.

An old mop would have been perfect for the wig. But noodles are ok, too.

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.

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
That was funny. More than half of those people pictured I've never heard of. For some odd reason I care about that? lol
He is hilarious! JLo's outfit is just like kendall's .. lately
I haven't. heard of half of these people, but I find their attention seek pathetic. Who the f... is some cardi sth woman that she thinks anyone might want to see her naked 9 mnths pregnant. Jeez, not everything is for sale!
I recognized like 7 of these people who apparently are famous... I need to get on insta or something 🤦♀️
These "celebrities" (I honestly do not know half of them) are self-caricatures already. Who dresses and poses likes this is merely desperate for attention. Trolling gives them even more attention...I was almost tempted to look up who "Cardi B" might be...
А может быть она скопирует человеческий образ жизни? Слабо "повторить" нормальную жизни как в Европе, как в США? Любая дура так может.
A lot of those black celebs think because something is expensive it is pretty... So they're rich but have a s****y taste in a lot of things! ;-)
Most of these people wearing ridiculous outfits are black. Overcompensating for their lack of confidence.
