Comedian Druski has gone viral yet again, this time sparking controversy with a NASCAR-themed sketch. In the video, he transformed into a beer-loving Southern fan, complete with a mullet, tattoos, and a sunburn — a look so convincing it racked up more than 200 million views on X, in under two days. While many praised the satire, others criticized it as offensive “whiteface” or an unfair jab at NASCAR culture.
But the transformation wasn’t just Druski’s doing — it was crafted by Hollywood makeup artist Kaylee Kehne-Swisher, known for her work on Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Kehne-Swisher and her team spent nearly seven hours perfecting Druski’s look, down to the lace mustache and painted-on tan lines. Druski, unfazed, continues to build momentum with his tour, commercials, and headline-grabbing sketches.
