In November 2017, Drake stopped in the middle of a concert in Australia as soon as he saw a fan molesting a concertgoer.
"Stop that sh--. If you don't stop touching girls, I'm gonna come out there and f--- you up. If you don't stop putting your hands on girls, I'm going to come out there and f--- your ass up," screamed Drake from the stage.
Drake's threatening message went viral.
