Drake Admits to Facetuning His Abs

You ever notice how existing as Drake is just kind of an exercise in humiliation? Between being deemed a pedophile by innumerable audiences and on innumerable stages (most memorably the Super Bowl) and demanding Tory Lanez’s release from prison in May, it’s no wonder he’s in such great shape. He’s constantly getting crunched by the weight of Kendrick Lamar‘s influence and his own internalized misogyny. But folks, all those artificial ab allegations didn’t come from that.

This week, Drake joined Bobbi Althoff on her new podcast Not This Again. Naturally, she asked whether or not he’s ever had a BBL or ab implants. You might remember this mirror pic in which a very…chiseled Drake posed shirtless and invited speculation that he’d taken a little trip to Turkey and asked for the ol’ Roman chest plate special.

“I think it was just like I came from the gym,” Drake said of the photo posted to Instagram in June. “I was sweaty in that pic.” But Althoff didn’t let him off that easily, and he inevitably admitted to a virtual nip and tuck.

“Maybe I like went on Facetune and, like, put, like, details up, you know?” Drake said. “When you can like make it…sorry, just being honest!” Huh. Isn’t he the guy who told Sexyy Red to “keep it natural” and accused Megan Thee Stallion of being a liar? Funny!

“Yeah, I was, like, maybe I, like, heightened the, like, saturation or something on it,” he fumbled on. “I think I like hit it too hard. I hit it too hard.”

“Yeah, they don’t look like that,” Drake added. We knew, but thanks for clarifying!

Drake also denied getting a BBL—a rumor that’s persisted for years thanks to a viral diss track from Rick Ross (and a second from Metro Boomin) that referred to Drake as “BBL Drizzy.”

“People also say that I got a BBL, right?” Drake said. “They call me BBL Drizzy.”

He further jested: “I don’t know if my like wagon looked crazy when I walked in here, but did it?”

Even when he’s trying so hard not to be lame, he just is. I guess you could say it’s the only thing about him that’s…natural.
