Drake became a target of Oscars night jests as Conan O’Brien hilariously poked fun at his ongoing feud with Kendrick Lamar.
At the 97th Annual Academy Awards, Drake found himself in the spotlight once again as Conan O’Brien took a playful swipe, referencing the tensions between Drake and K. Dot. The comedic host didn't hold back as he quipped, "Well, we’re halfway through the show, which means it’s time for Kendrick Lamar to come out and call Drake a pedophile!"
The audience reacted with a mix of shock and laughter, with O’Brien cheekily assuring them, “Don’t worry—I’m lawyered up!”
Kendrick Lamar had stirred the pot with a diss track during the Super Bowl Halftime Show, but unlike O’Brien's light-hearted dig, Lamar stopped short of explicitly labeling Drake. The Grammy-winning artist's success set the stage for Drake to address his feud during his final Australia show, where he called out collaborators who he feels betrayed him.
In a recent turn of events, Drake is dialing back parts of his lawsuit against Universal Music Group related to Lamar's diss track. The specifics of the dropped allegations remain unclear, casting doubt on the strength of Drake's legal battle.
It seems the drama between Drake and Kendrick Lamar continues to capture attention, leaving fans eagerly awaiting the next chapter in this ongoing saga.
