Throughout Tuesday morning, Drake has been active on his Instagram page titled "plottttwistttttt," uploading an array of noteworthy snapshots that have captured the attention of his followers. One striking post features the iconic wrestler, Ted "the Million Dollar Man" DiBiase, while another sees him posing alongside a woman whom avid online fans have recognized as Serena Williams' former agent.
In the comment sections, fans have exhibited a spectrum of reactions to these posts. One user penned, "The loyal ones still vibe to Drake's music every day. The pretenders who've been jumping on the bandwagon for the past two decades have now flipped their scripts. Oh well," reflecting a sentiment of die-hard support amidst the ebb and flow of popularity. Another joked about Drake's social media preoccupation, teasing, "Bro, Kendrick just owned the Super Bowl Halftime Show—do something meaningful," a nod to Kendrick Lamar's headlining performance on Sunday, where he subtly dissed Drake.
It isn't far-fetched to speculate that the apparent post featuring Serena Williams might serve as a riposte to her appearance on stage with Lamar during his performance of "Not Like Us." Although she hails from Compton, rumors have circulated about a brief romantic fling between her and Drake in the 2010s. In a lyrical nod to this on his 2022 track "Middle of the Ocean," Drake raps, "Sidebar, Serena, your husband's a groupie / He claims we don't have a problem, but / No, boo, it's like you coming for sushi," hinting at a past connection. Meanwhile, Williams herself shared an Instagram post on Tuesday, offering a behind-the-scenes glimpse and captioning it: "When @kendricklamar and team called and said, ‘We’ve been wanting to collaborate for ages, how about this? We loved your crip walk at the Olympics after you won gold.’ I thought, Super Bowl? Are you kidding? When else would I ever get to dance at a Super Bowl? (Never!) Let’s make it happen! I knew my victory dance after the Olympics would pay off someday." Scroll up to catch a glimpse of Drake's intriguing posts.
