Comedian Nick Cannon sent shockwaves through the social media world on Sunday when the “America’s Got Talent” host shared an ill-advised instragram pic with the world.
Cannon, 33, posted a picture of himself made up in whiteface makeup to promote his upcoming album “White People Party Music” - his first new album in 11 years.
Dressed as the skater boy character “Connor Smallnut”, Cannon appeared in a flannel shirt, t-shirt, jeans and knit cap.
"It's official… I'm White!!! #WHITEPEOPLEPARTYMUSIC #Wppm in stores April 1st!!!!!!Dude Go Get It!!!Join The Party!!!!" Cannon posted alongside the pic.
He further fanned the flames with this hashtag-heavy laundry list of white stereotypes posted on Twitter: "#GoodCredit #DogKissing #BeerPong #FarmersMarkets #FistPumping #CreamCheeseEating #RacialDraft “Bro I got drafted!!"
