By now, you’ve surely seen Druski’s latest skit, which finds the accomplished parody artist expertly taking the proverbial piss out of “how conservative women in America act.”
As he’s done in past skits, including this instant classic NASCAR one from last year, Druski underwent a startling physical transformation, leading to X’s AI chatbot Grok misidentifying a screenshot of the comedian as Erika Kirk.
Amid the discourse brought on by Druski’s latest hit, a slew of social media posts started claiming he had responded to the predictable reaction from the far-right by revealing a white grandfather. This, however, is not true.
While Druski did follow up the “conservative women in America” skit with a post jokingly asking whether he had gone “too far,” complete with an image seemingly showing him as a child next to an older white man, the post in question did not include any direct claims of the pictured individual being a relative.
Furthermore, a spokesperson for Druski has now confirmed to Complex that the man is indeed not his grandfather. The man was actually Druski’s neighbor back when he was a kid.
Additionally, the spokesperson confirmed to Complex that related claims purporting that Druski had announced cease-and-desist efforts from Erika Kirk in response to the skit are also fake.
In short, be careful out there. There’s a whole lot of nonsense circulating on social media these days.
