Drake turned his 20v1 dating stream into the most expensive afterparty flex in streaming history, and the real story isn’t about who he picked as his wife.
The Canadian rapper hosted the chaotic speed-dating special on Kick with NELK co-founder Kyle Forgeard, and what started as a dating game became a masterclass in throwing money around while keeping it real with people from all walks of life. Every single participant walked away with $10,000 just for showing up, but the real prizes came later.
Streamed on Saturday (Aug.8), the stream saw Drake sit across from a rotating lineup of contestants, and the vast majority of them were OnlyFans creators. At the end of the stream, he picked cosplay creator and self-described “goth baddie” Pinkchyu (real name Lin Lamar), who selected a house for her retired mother as her dream prize. Self-described “goth baddie” Pinkchyu, who wore pale goth makeup and a tight spandex dress, almost immediately won over Drake. During one moment that went viral, she asked him to bark for her, and he gladly obliged. She made it to the three finalists, beating out Lena the Plug and Jordyn Lucas and securing herself a new home. She’s a content creator who specializes in cosplay, and also produces OnlyFans content.
Dank Demoss, real name Dajua Blanding, is a Detroit rapper. Drake was previously aware of her because they follow each other on Instagram. When she walked up, he told her she looked nice and then jokingly interrogated her because she’s already in a relationship. Plushh, whose legal name has remained private, is a Toronto rapper who previously went viral. Toni Russo is an OnlyFans content creator and influencer who suffered a wardrobe malfunction that Drake had to inform her of. “It’s been so distracting the whole time,” he said, and when she asked for his opinion of her breasts, he said, “ten million out of ten.”
Lena Nersesian, better known as Lena the Plug, is an adult content creator who is famously married to Adam22. During the stream, she made a point to take off her wedding ring and presented Drake with a hall pass signed by her husband. She made it to the final three, but was ultimately bested by Pinkchyu. Perhaps one of the most famous women to make an appearance during the special, Lily Phillips is the British adult video star who previously went viral after she claimed she was planning to film herself sleeping with 1,000 men in just one day.
The stream proved that sometimes the most memorable moments aren’t about romance at all, they’re about connection and generosity mixed with the absurdity of caviar on chicken nuggets.
