“Criminal!” – Funke Akindele Drags Hair Vendor for Editing Her Face into Wedding Photo

Nollywood star Funke Akindele has hilariously, but pointedly, called out a hair vendor who photoshopped her face into pictures from Priscilla Ojo and Juma Jux’s wedding finale held in Tanzania.

The wedding, which attracted some of the most stylish figures in entertainment, was trending for all the right reasons, until the beauty vendor @myhairven stirred the pot online with a photo-edit stunt no one saw coming.

In a bold move, the vendor posted a photoshopped image swapping her own face over Funke’s original picture. The caption? Full confidence:

“Tanzania called and I answered. Congratulations once again @iyaboojofespris @its.priscy. Rate my outfit. Make up by @alvinoflagos__official. Help me tag @funkejenifaakindele cos we wore the same dress yesterday.”

But the move didn’t fly under the radar.

Funke, ever the queen of vibes, slid into the comment section with a short but sharp clapback: “Criminal!”

Her one-word reaction sent fans into a frenzy, with many applauding her humour and others side-eyeing the vendor’s tactics.

Screenshots of the edited photo and Funke’s comment quickly circulated on X and Instagram, sparking conversations around boundaries, clout chasing, and the blurry lines between promotion and impersonation.
