[VIDEO] Funny or Racist? Nick Cannon Goes Completely White Face

Nick Cannon is pushing the envelope, promoting his new album, White People Party Music. The 33-year-old growing media mogul has a few fans and critics buzzing about a new Instagram photo that he shared. Nick is covered in lightening make-up, in an effort to look like a Caucasian. He shares the photo, writing:

It’s official… I’m White!!! #WHITEPEOPLEPARTYMUSIC #Wppm in stores April 1st!!!!!!Dude Go Get It!!!Join The Party!!!! #GoodCredit #DogKissing #BeerPong #FarmersMarkets  #FistPumping  #CreamCheeseEating #RacialDraft ” Bro I got drafted!!

He also added an entertaining clip introducing his white alter-ego, Connor Smallnut. Watch!

While some find his ‘White Face’ insulting, others find it entertaining. Check out some of the mixed Instagram reactions:

Nick has been quite open about discussing racism in America. Last year, the comic-actor-musician-host addressed stereotypes and racism in his stand-up special, ‘F#ck Nick Cannon’.  What are your thoughts on Nick’s white face–offensive or hilarious? 

P.S. We interviewed Nick last week at the private listening session for the new album.

Check back for the interview!
