Drake Lookalike Contest Takes Place in Toronto

The lookalike contest trend isn’t dying out anytime soon, and an army of Drake lookalikes descended upon his hometown of Toronto, Canada to compete for a hefty $10,000 prize, provided by Drake himself.

Anthony Po, originator of the Timothee Chalamet lookalike competition which featured a humble $50 reward, unknowingly started a trend of copycat contests. It’s only right that the next victim be the 6 God himself, and the competition was pretty good.

As you can see in a video posted by Po (who arrived dressed as Adonis, Drake’s son), there’s a Drake for everyone. From “Ozempic Drake” to “Girl Drake,” there was fun for the whole family. Sadly, no BBL Drizzy to be found.

It’s all in good fun, and the contest even got the blessing of Drake himself. He reposted several clips of the tomfoolery on Instagram, captioning a recap video with “I love this city.”

And according to Po, the impressive spread was no match for Girl Drake, who took home the $10k. In an interview with the Toronto Star, Makayla Chambers gushed over her victory, telling the publication, “I feel like I made it.”

While Drake seems to enjoy getting playfully made fun of with his army of lookalikes, the rapper is significantly less pleased with his label, Universal Music Group.

Following the release of Kendrick Lamar‘s massive hit diss record, “Not Like Us,” the Certified Lover Boy rapper filed a lawsuit against UMG and Spotify, alleging they inflated streaming numbers to artificially increase the song’s popularity.

As for the doppelganger virus, it’s not going away anytime soon. In New York, several handsome, masked individuals stepped up for a shot (no pun intended) at winning the UnitedHealthcare Assassin Lookalike Contest. It’s clear no one is safe.
