Drake has been buzzing on the internet once again, not only for his It’s All A Blur tour, but also for what happened at one of his LA gigs. This Wednesday, the God’s Plan rapper performed at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, California. On August 16, 2023, Drake was seen handing a pink Birkin bag to a fan in the front row. According to Page Six, the fan’s decision to purchase the front-row ticket paid off handsomely. A good Birkin bag can be worth thousands of dollars, and the gesture had the audience swooning. Many fans responded to Drake’s encounter with the lucky fan after TikTok user @designer.ave tweeted the video. The news was discussed on Neighbourhood Talk’s Instagram account by one admirer. “If she was smart?” She’s going to sell it. Many fans reacted to the In My Feelings rapper’s uncommon gesture of donating a Birkin bag to a fan instead of the normal gifts that fans throw on the stage at the end of concerts.
“Omg, can you imagine not only getting a free Birkin but getting a free Birkin from Drake?” one admirer wondered. Another commenter alluded to the Canadian rapper’s Child’s Play lyrics, stating, “I give Chanel out like a hug, so is this a kiss?” with ( crying emoji)” The Birkin incident was not the only unexpected event at the concert. Dennis Graham, the rapper’s father, tossed a big bra at his son, who was performing on stage. Tossing bras at the Champagne Papi rapper’s concert has become a fad after a woman called Veronica Correia received a modelling opportunity after tossing her 36 G-sized bra at the rapper on tour in June. Drake’s It’s All A Blur tour is still going on, and it will end on October 9, 2023, in Columbus, Ohio.

The God’s Plan Rapper Drake Gifts A Birkin Bag To A Concertgoer, Sparking Hilarious Reactions On The Internet
These front-row seats were absolutely worth it. Drake surprised a fan in the front row of his Los Angeles concert on Wednesday by walking out on stage with a pink Hermès Birkin bag and handing it to her — and his kind gesture had quite a few females go wild. Handbag expert Designer Ave recorded the ultimate “Rich Flex” in a TikTok video, captioning it, “His show tonight at the Forum in LA, But why was not it me lmao.” It appears in the video that the 36-year-old “Hotline Bling” singer carries a Birkin 30 in either Epsom or Togo leather – similar models selling for more than $30,000 on the resale market — and declares, “Drake ain’t cheap” as the crowd applauds. He eventually selects a woman in the front row to get the pink purse, instructing “Make sure she has security on the way out.” “Omg, can you fathom not only getting a free Birkin but receiving a free Birkin from Drake?” one fan remarked on TikTok, while another paraphrased one of his lines, saying, “‘I give Chanel out like a hug’ So is this a kiss?.”
Could we discuss how he ensured the girl got security from the show to her car? “The thought this man has!!” a third TikTok user said. Drake isn’t just kind to his fans; in 2017, he told the Hollywood Reporter that he’s been collecting Birkin bags for “the woman I end up with.” Some of his expensive collection was revealed in a 2020 Architectural Digest spread, with a photo showing the inside of his “two-story closet” — an opulent space “adorned with amethyst hardware, rock crystal, as well as seating upholstered in diamond-tufted shearling alongside polished nickel studs.” In the photo, two of the rapper’s famous Hermès bags sat on a dresser: a mustard yellow crocodile design and a rare Himalaya Birkin, which is carried by celebrities such as Jennifer Lopez and Kim Kardashian and is widely regarded as one of the most costly handbags in the world. Drake’s It’s All A Blur tour is still going on, and it will end on October 9, 2023, in Columbus, Ohio.
