Nick Cannon, is that you? The rapper took to Instagram on Sunday to promote his new album, White People Party Music, and to share a picture of himself as his alter ego, "Connor Smallnut." He posted the snap with a long list of hashtags — "#DogKissing #BeerPong #FarmersMarkets #FistPumping #CreamCheeseEating #RacialDraft" — and followed up with a series of tweets and videos after his picture sparked some debate. Nick retweeted several supportive comments from fans then posted a picture of Robert Downey Jr. in Tropic Thunder, giving a nod to another character that involved some heavy makeup. Take a look at Nick's posts, then tell us what you think.
