Jake Paul Says Druski’s Skit Sparked Him To Consider His Own Version In Blackface

Jake Paul recently sat down with Theo Von. In a part of the podcast, the two reacted to Druski’s “Conservative Women” skit, sharing how hilarious it was.

Jake stated, “It’s f***king hilarious. I loved it. And I’m obviously Republican, and like, all the Republicans being mad about this sh is like a f***ing L for Republicans, because this is f***king hilarious. And even though it’s… dark and twisted… this is what comedy… is… we are f***king humans. Let’s make fun of ourselves. And there’s truth in this. Yes. And extreme truth. And people weren’t ready for that.”

Jake then shared that for the last couple of days, he’s been calling makeup artists while thinking about responding to Druski with his own skit, but darker. When discussing if he would be on the same playing field as Druski, Theo shared that there’s a way to do it and that the character may need Black support from someone like Druski or Charles Barkley.

Jake responded, saying, “That’s p****ing out.” He added, “Doesn’t that make us more prejudiced if we have to partner with someone. Druski just dropped this ad he’s done it a couple of times and I… love it. This is great. This is how humans should be. We should make fun of each other, and I don’t see in color; I see in truth and comedy. So like, what are we talking about? So you’re saying that… what era are we living in?”

The two went on to discuss Justin Trudeau and Jimmy Kimmel, both of whom have previously worn blackface. Jake added, “Look at f***ing Jimmy Kimmel on the left. Untouchable, like what the f**k bro how does he get away with it?”

Theo Von also shared that the thing that pisses him off is that kids can’t be black for Halloween and dress up as their favorite athletes and such.
