Drake look-alike competition came to an end with mixed feelings from fans.
Organised by Casuals Cakery in Drake’s hometown, Toronto, the look-alike contest was flooded with people showing up in different eras of the five-times Grammy winner.
The contest came to a surprising conclusion after a 21-year-old girl, Makayla Chambers, who was styled in Drake’s famous two pigtails look, paired with fake goatee was announced the winner.
Chambers, who is now being called “Girl Drake”, was just supposed to take home a bottle of brandy and a pack of cigars as the reward for the competition.
However, the God’s Plan singer reached out to the organisers of the event to add “10 bands” (10 thousand dollars) to the “main prize”.
Drake also shared the winner on his Instagram story with caption, “I love this city” along with laughing emoji.
After winning the competition, Makayla expressed her feelings, noting, “It feels great. It feels like I made it.”
