The Canadian rapper appeared to be entertained by the Drake-themed gathering.
Imitation contests have become extremely popular recently as numerous celebrity impersonation competitions have taken off on social media. On Saturday night (Dec. 14), Drake announced a grand prize of $10,000 for the look-alike contest held in his tribute. The Toronto event included hundreds of attendees, with many men and women joining in for the prize.
Upon hearing about the contest, the For All The Dogs host declared, “I’m contributing 10 bands to the look-alike contest as the top prize.” The party planner said, “Hold on a moment while I calm down from hyperventilating right now.” “I can’t believe this is [your] account and [you] are aware of this omg I adore you.”
While discussing the competition, a fan remarked, “People are enjoying themselves, and you dislike it just because it’s Drake. It’s not like you don’t dress up as others at events like 90s parties, etc. You’re just grasping at straws.” Another person remarked, “It was certainly a great idea.” Drake ought to have held the competition on social media and given genuine fans a chance to win that money. It would have engaged many more of his former or current fans! Trolls would have participated as well. “Nonetheless, who worries! It remains a solid concept.”
