Nick Cannon Slammed As Racist For Dressing In 'White Face'

Nick Cannon appears to have taken the title of his new album a little too seriously.

The "America's Got Talent" host is catching serious online heat after he "whited up" to promote the forthcoming release of "White People Party Music."

Mr. Mariah Carey has been labelled "racist," "ignorant" and "hypocritical" for the stunt - which also saw him show off his bizarre new "Connor Smallnut" persona in a series of videos.

There is a big difference between Humor and Hatred.
Cannon, 33, sent social media sites into meltdown after sharing an Instagram snap of himself Sunday.

"It's official… I'm White!!! #WHITEPEOPLEPARTYMUSIC #Wppm in stores April 1st!!!!!!Dude Go Get It!!!Join The Party!!!!" he wrote alongside the image.

"#GoodCredit #DogKissing #BeerPong #FarmersMarkets #FistPumping #CreamCheeseEating #RacialDraft “Bro I got drafted!!" he added.
His character, who looks like a skater kid, wore a beanie, wig and false teeth - with a white T-shirt and 80s style jeans completing the trying-to-be satirical outfit.

With some fans criticizing him for the post, Cannon tweeted back: ""Duuuude everybody Chil-lax!!!!" ~ Connor Smallnut'."
