Drake: Canadian rapper Drake has found himself at the center of a controversy surrounding his choice of a pink manicure, as critics on social media took aim at his appearance.

Drake responds to Andrew Tate

The controversy surrounding Drake's pink manicure began with comments from Lil Yachty and social media influencer Andrew Tate. Tate retweeted a post about Drake's nails, adding his own comment about denying meetings with famous people. Drake caught wind of the criticism and responded, accusing the world of being homophobic, referencing his hit collaboration with 21 Savage, "Rich Flex."

Drake's comment on social media read, "GET OUT MY COMMENTS YOU TOLD ME TO PAINT MY NAILS SO I STOP BITING THEM AND NOW THE WORLD IS BEING HOMOPHOBIC FOR THE 1st TIME SINCE ‘RICH FLEX.' Wait is the world homophobic? Smh." It remains unclear whether his comment was meant as a serious accusation or a sarcastic remark.

The rapper had proudly displayed his newly done pink nails on his Instagram story, just before embarking on his It's All a Blur tour with 21 Savage. However, some fans were unimpressed with his nail polish choice, suggesting that he was taking the "soft girl era" too seriously and making sarcastic remarks about him potentially wearing red lipstick next.

Fans reacted 

The backlash prompted a clash between fans and critics, with some defending Drake's choice of nail polish and accusing the critics of promoting toxic masculinity and being homophobic. Supporters emphasized that getting one's nails done is not limited to any gender and does not diminish one's masculinity. They called for acceptance and dismissed the negative comments as rooted in insecurities.
