Druski stirred up an imposition construction after a white noodles at a NASCAR event in Darlington Tuesday (September 2) where he disguised himself as a stereotypical southern white man with sunburned skin, exposed skin, a handful of fish, cowboy hat and denim.
The viral video shows the comedian completely changed in imitating the exaggerated “countryman” behavior, barely recognizable – drink beer, swapping cigarettes and providing noisy toast.
Especially for a moment, Druski spits at the feet of two black participants, an online move called offensive and unnecessary.
He captioned the edit, “The guy who is proud to be American.”

While some viewers praised the art of makeup and bold satire, others slammed the short play to enhance negative stereotypes about Southern culture and NASCAR attendees.
One user commented: “Those people didn’t know it was a black man.” Another wrote: “He could infiltrate KKK if he wanted.”
This rebound soon escalated into a broader conversation about race, comedy and double standards, especially when using white faces instead of black faces in entertainment.
A sharp response to magazine-friendly comedian and podcast Theo von, the hinting that he might retaliate against blackface.
“WOWWWW. Someone wears hair and M/U? Hit my DM. I feel jheri curl is coming,” he posted. “First, some quality paint is needed.”
The skit also features NASCAR driver Ty Gibbs, who seem to kill laughter in one scene.
Some have compared Drusky’s approach to Sacha Baron Cohen’s approach, known for using camouflage to expose social problems. But critics argue that such performances tend to be more commentary than satire.
This is not the first time Druski has used Whiteface. In May, he released a “white man accepted by the hood” parody. The short play spread, gaining millions of views and sparking similar discussions.
