American comedian Druski is facing criticism following a viral sketch featuring a character named 'Erika Kirk', drawing backlash over the use of 'white face' makeup. The skit, shared on social media platforms including Instagram and X, shows the performer portraying a fictional conservative commentator in a staged interview-style setting, with scripted responses delivered directly to camera.
In a video posted on 25 March, comedian Druski, whose real name is Drew Desbordes, used prosthetics to portray Erika Kirk in a satirical sketch. The video generated a wide range of responses online, with some viewers criticising the use of prosthetics as disrespectful, while others defended the sketch as parody.
