The 20 Most Drake Things To Happen In 2014
If there's one thing you have to love about Drake, it's his admirable ability to laugh at himself. Check out some of the best examples of when Drake made fun of Drake and still won.
-
1. When Drake tore Macklemore apart from his ESPYs performance.
Drizzy sung to a sportsman in the audience; "real talent doesn't always win championships" just like "real music doesn't always win Grammys,' while a perfectly timed photo of Macklemore clutching his 'Best Rap Album 2014' Grammys award appeared in the background and the audience exploded with laughter.

2. The saga that was Drake lint-rolling in public.
When Drake pulled out a lint roller whilst sat in the front row of a basketball game, and began rolling his trousers, no one could believe what they were seeing. The video quickly went viral and the PR king didn't put his head down until it all blew over. Nope. Instead, he showed up posing with customised ones.
-
3. When Drake appeared in the 'Anaconda' video and didn't know what to do with himself.
He later tweeted that it was the best invite to a video shoot he's ever had, hashtagging the tweet '#MyAnacondaWasWayUp.' Too much information Drizzy!

4. When Drake got an emoji tattooed on his arm.
Drizzy for an emoji tattooed on his arm and the internet went in to a frenzy. Not so much because Drake now has an emoji on his arm until the end of time, but because arguments broke out over whether it's the 'high five' emoji or the 'praying hands' one. (It's the praying hands one, by the way.) Picture: Instagram.com/dr_woo_ssc

5. When Drake threw an air ball while training with the Kentucky Wildcats.
The whole thing was caught on camera and Drake is still living to regret it. We can hear the Vine's looping around the world.

9. When Drake addressed his weird obsession with Skylar Diggins in front of the world.
If you didn't know, Drake has had what some might call an obsession with US basketball player Skylar Diggins for a while. He repeatedly posted photos of her on his Instagram and wore jerseys with her name on, even though she's got a boyfriend. When Drizzy presented the ESPY's, he took shots at himself by reciting a poem for her, and to her surprised she came on the stage and finally gave him a kiss... Kind of.
-
10. When Drake disguised himself and asked random people what they think of Drake.
When Drake donned a beard and glasses on The Jimmy Kimmell show he knew he was going to be in for a rough ride. The funniest answer by far came from one guy who said; "He says that he came from the bottom, which most likely he didn't." It was a move most rappers wouldn't have even thought twice about, but Drizzy was more than up for having a laugh at himself.

11. When Drake let his then-enemy Chris Brown play surgeon in a hilarious sketch.
Drizzy and Chris Brown shocked the hip-hop world when after years of feuding they teamed up for a brilliant sketch during the 2014 ESPY's. The skit saw Drake open his eyes only to find that Breezy (who greeted him with YOLO motherf**ker") was going to operate on him. Picture: Twitter
-
12. The time Drake admitted the reason that he couldn't hold down Rihanna.
Last month during his 'Drake Vs Lil Wayne' tour, Lil' Wayne commented that Drizzy was dancing a bit like Rihanna's ex Chris Brown. "I should have brought that s**t out earlier" Drake replied. "Maybe I could have made that s**t work with Rihanna a little better." Picture: Getty

13. When Drizzy uploaded this amazing (and some might say embarrassing) throwback photo of himself.
He simply captioned it "Based." Enough said.
-
14. When Drake decided he would sell his tears for some extra cash.
This is the photo that accompanied and Instagram post from Drake that read: "Drake Tears For Sale 2015." Not much has been said about the product since, but we're sure there will be more information in January.
-
15. 'Nothing Was The Same: The Italian Edition.'
Who knows what corner of the internet Drake found this edited version of his 'Nothing Was The Same' cover in, but we all had a laugh when Drake joked this would be the 'Italian release only.'

16. Sometimes, even Drake makes fun of Drake.
When Drake posted this funny meme on Instagram, he caption it; "This f**king guy..." Say what you want about Drizzy but there's no denying he's got a sense of humour.
-
17. When Drake was a real rockstar and spent the night playing scrabble with his mum.
And not only did he play scrabble with his mum, he posted a photo letting the world know and he even wrote a quick lyrics about his evening; "Triple Word Triple Letter Nobody Do It Better." Were yet to hear the track the lyric features on though...

This is up there with the top five photos on Drake's Instagram account.

19. When Drake paid Hogwarts a visit.

20. When life was like a box of chocolates and Drake didn't know what he was gonna get.
What was Drake running from? Why did Drake want to be Forest Gump? Who knows, who cares - as long as Drake keeps making fun of himself, everyone will be happy.
