American comedian Druski has stirred strong reactions online after releasing a new video that many believe is inspired by Erika Kirk. The clip has already reached more than 58 million views, showing just how quickly it spread.

This is not the first time Druski has faced criticism for one of his performances. In the past, he even asked publicly if he had been “canceled” after appearing at a NASCAR event in a costume that included white skin makeup, a beard, light-colored hair, and American flag tattoos.

At the time, he described that look as a 'Guy who is just Proud to be AMERICAN'. Now, he has returned with another character, introducing himself as: "Conservative Woman."

In this new skit, Druski once again appears with white skin makeup, but this time he wears a long blonde wig and detailed facial makeup to complete the look.

Druski, whose real name is Drew Desbordes, shared the video across several social media platforms on March 25. He described the skit as his take on “how conservative women in America act.”

The video includes a range of scenes, from reformer pilates workouts to mock press conferences. Many viewers quickly pointed out that the performance seems to closely mirror the style and tone of Erika Kirk in particular.

One of the more noticeable moments in the skit is when Druski recreates a style similar to a video Kirk previously posted. In her clip, she speaks directly to the camera while talking about prayer.

"We said our prayer, and we asked the lord to protect us," she says in her original video.

Druski mirrors this setup in his own version, looking straight into the camera and delivering his line in a similar tone: "I serve a righteous God, and that is why we say our prayers."

In other parts of the video, Druski is shown driving while dancing along to Katy Perry’s 'California Gurls'. He also stops at a drive-through with a small dog, where he orders a 'sweet cream foam iced chai matcha' along with an 'organic pup cup'.

Reactions to the video have been mixed. Some people found the skit funny and entertaining, while others felt it crossed a line and criticized his approach.

"Who even likes these skits? This not even funny fr," one person wrote, while another user on X shared a stronger reaction, saying: "DISGUSTING: Druski faces MASSIVE backlash after dressing as Charlie Kirk's grieving widow, Erika Kirk, and mocking Christianity. An evil and garbage human being!"

At the same time, Druski has highlighted positive reactions on his own X page by reposting tweets that praised the skit. One post included a crying emoji and said: "Nah man this might be Druski's most diabolical skit yet."

Another user took a screenshot from the video and asked X’s AI tool, Grok: "Who is this."

The chatbot responded with its own explanation, saying: "That's Erika Kirk, the actress/comedian starring in Druski's satirical skit. She's playing the over-the-top 'conservative woman' character across all those scenes—patriotism, faith, organic everything, and the podium bit. Spot-on performance for the laughs!"
