Drake Gave Tampa Nurse $25,000 At His Concert
Drake has been blessing fans with gifts and money at his concerts. He’s been known to give G-Wagon Mercedes, Birkin bags and even giveaway tons of cash while he performs on stage. The only things is, you have to somehow get his attention! That’s exactly what Lacey Lou did when she bought tickets to see Drake at his Tampa concert.
How Did Drake Gave Tampa Nurse $15,000 To At His Concert:
Lacey was excited when she bought her tickets to see Drake! She’s been a nurse for a longtime and money has been very tight. She takes care of everyone in her family including her four kids. Lacey always wanted to pay off her bills and eventually get her Master’s degree but she could never make it happen. Her favorite artist of all time is Drake and she knew ahead of time that he would be blessing the Tampa Bay area with cash and gifts. That’s when she came up with a plan. She spent time making a special sign saying how she’s a local nurse and quoting lyrics from his songs. Not to mention she wore a really cute outfit the night of the show which also helped.
She showed up to Drake’s show Friday, extremely early at 4a.m. to make sure she could get as close as possible to him. The show didn’t start until 9p.m. but she was extremely excited to see someone she loved for such a long time. The show started and by some miracle she got Drake’s attention out of everyone else in the crowd. He ended up giving her $15,000 in front of everyone. He threw her a special towel so his team would know to give her the money instead of someone else.
Now, Lacey is $15,000 richer and isn’t just going to blow the money on stupid stuff. She wants to use all the money for her bills and get her Master’s degree to be more successful. She’s also going to Drake’s Nashville show which she also bought tickets for to see him again. Orlando and the Freakshow interviewed Lacey about her wonderful experience! Watch the video below…
Drake: All Of His No. 1 Hits, Ranked
Drake has been cranking out hits for over a decade now, and just recently, the rap star has tied with Michael Jackson in No. 1 hits. Both artists have 13 No. 1 accounted-for hits on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Now, both Drake and Jackson have the fourth most No. 1 songs on the chart by a male artist.
Billboard also notes that the scoring of songs and music has changed drastically because of streaming. “As streaming has become more prominent in recent years, certain acts have been able to achieve impressive Hot 100 feats after releasing high-profile albums. The model contrasts with prior decades, when acts generally promoted one single at a time in the physical-only marketplace and on radio. That shift in consumption helps explain why artists have been able to increase their total number of career entries and top 10s over short spans in recent years,” the website reads.
While there are some logistics to note about how the scoring has changed, that didn’t stop Drake from celebrating this monumental achievement. He posted a photoshopped photo of Michael Jackson wearing an OVO hoodie while taking a mirror selfie.
To add to his celebration, he wore a white crystal-studded glove that emulated MJ’s famed glove that he wore during his 1984 Victory Tour and on stage a year prior at the Grammys when he performed “Billie Jean.”
Drake’s latest studio album, For All The Dogs, also was a top charter debuting at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. The project included guest appearances from SZA, Teezo Touchdown, 21 Savage, J. Cole, Bad Bunny, PartyNextDoor, Chief Keef, Sexxy Red, Yeat, and Lil Yachty. The project was released on Oct. 6.
Note only 13 of his 14 No. 1 hits are counted towards his career score as the rapper was not properly credited for one of the songs. That song has been marked with an asterisk (*).
