why comedian Druski is trending in 2025? due to his viral Druski white face for NASCAR skit video and music prank at a Rod Wave concert, music collaborations with Justin Bieber, tour updates, and controversies.
Recent Highlights
- NASCAR Whiteface Skit
Druski hit the news on September 2, 2025 when he made the appearance of the Southern 500 NASCAR Cup Series race at Darlington in full whiteface, including a mullet, overalls, tattoos, and a southern drawl. In the viral video, he acted in a stereotypical redneck way, providing comic moments of catcalling a lady to smoke with him on his laps, eyebrows raising during the national anthem, and looking so real that a number of viewers did not recognize him.
The transformation was well received by everyone due to the realism and makeup created:
It would be Tropical Thunder racially switching. How did he make it look so good?”
This is the finest whiteface I ever saw.
Such kinds of comments overwhelmed social media.
- Rod Wave Prank Concert in Tampa.
On August 31, 2025, a few days earlier, Druski ran another buzzworthy stunt this time at a Rod Wave concert in Tampa. He was on the stage disguised as Rod Wave himself and after terrifying the crowd he entertained the audience by telling them that he was not Rod Wave and that he was joking by cutting the music. I got y’all a*.”* The prank immediately became viral, and it will serve as a means to sell his upcoming Coulda Fest tour which includes Snoop Dogg, Lil Yachty, and Justin Bieber among other artists and will run between Toronto (Sept. 26) and Atlanta (Dec. 6).
- MLB All-Star Game Celebrity Softball Game Appearance.
During the MLB All-Star Celebrity Softball Game on July 13, 2025 in Arlington, Texas, Druski generated some buzz despite openly acknowledging that he last played softball in fifth grade. Energetic character and mischief caused him to become one of the most discussed actors of the performance.
- Sexual Assault Claims- Case Media.
Although it is not new, a critical legal issue still takes centre stage. In March 2025, Druski (and Odell Beckham Jr.) were added to an amended lawsuit against Sean “Diddy” Combs. The complaint claims gang rape that occurred in 2018, which the Contra Costa County Sheriff has classified as baseless. Druski vehemently refuted the accusations saying that he had no connection or actually seen the industry at that time.
- Working on the Album Justin Bieber.
In July 2025, Druski appeared on three songs on the surprise album Swag by Justin Bieber. He does not sing the songs but appears in interludes/dialogue, talking about such topics as fame and paparazzi, which only serves to underscore his crossover potential outside the comedy genre.
In Summary
Druski keeps shocking the entertainment industry, both with viral segments at sporting events and collaborating with musicians and doing pranks that make headlines. Although some of his appearances are heavily comedic and light-hearted, he also stays in the news because of serious legal cases.
