Did Drake Indirectly Confirm The Exposed X-Rated Video Of Him Naked Is Real?
Drake reportedly responded after an NSFW video allegedly featuring the rapper was leaked online.
Drake, 37, became a trending topic on X, formerly Twitter, Tuesday after a clip surfaced on the platform appearing to show the "God's Plan" hitmaker naked from the bottom down on a bed and engaging in a sex act.
Page Six suggested that the headboard of the bed in the video matched the one Drake has on his private jet.
While the Canadian star has not publicly addressed the viral X-rated video, Kick streamer Adin Ross, who is reportedly friends with Drake, claimed to have received a response from him.
Ross sent Drake a voice memo asking him about the video after it sent the internet abuzz.
"I'm still Live, bro. We was (sic) just looking at the s**t. It's like crazy bro, like Goddamn," the 23-year-old social media personality said in the recording, as seen in a clip from Ross' live stream shared on X.
He added, "You're blessed with your voice, you're blessed with performing, you're blessed to be you, you're blessed to be No. 1, and you're also blessed to have a f*****g missile."
After he sent the voice memo to the "One Dance" rapper, Ross claimed Drake responded with "eight laughing emojis" and suggested the star might incorporate the voice note in his next album.
It is unclear if Drake's alleged response was a confirmation that he was the man in the video.
However, a number of X users appeared convinced that Drake indirectly confirmed it but "doesn't care" that the video was leaked online.
"Laughing emojis, oh it's him," one user claimed.
However, others seemed skeptical of Ross' claims, with one person claiming: "Bro got no proof, bro had the fakest laugh, bro very clearly made that up on the spot, Drake [does] NOT know him, Drake would not respond that fast to white boy."
While Drake has not directly responded to the video, this has not stopped hundreds of thousands of social media users from speculating and sharing memes, spoofs, and humorous takes on the situation.
One X user posted various clips of people crying to express their feelings "after I saw the Drake video."
Another person shared a clip of a TikTok user jokingly recreating the viral video and wrote: "[Alr]ight that's enough TikTok for today."
"Drake walking on the street after a successful leaked video," a third X user wrote alongside a clip of Drake being welcomed with cheers as he enters a concert venue.
"Drizzy Drake seeing that he got leaked but in a good way," another posted alongside the iconic meme of Homelander laughing from "The Boys."
"Girls When they got to know Drake's new leak is not just a song," another wrote.
Meanwhile, this incident follows Drake's recent criticism of the Grammy Awards.
Right before Sunday's ceremony, the rapper took to his Instagram Stories to express his disinterest in the awards, emphasizing that the show represents the opinions of an anonymous group.
"All you incredible artists remember this show isn't the facts -- it's just the opinion of a group of people whose names are kept a secret," Drake wrote. "Literally. You can Google it. Congrats to anybody winning anything for hip hop, but this show doesn't dictate s**t in our world."
The five-time Grammy winner and 55-time nominee received four nods this year, including one for best rap album.
