Jennifer Lopez Slammed Drake After Their Split

The 53-year-old singer Jennifer Lopez and Canadian rapper Drake were once romantically involved with each other in late 2016 and reportedly went on to date for a few weeks. It all started when the latter was spotted at the singer’s shows in December 2016 with the former couple later on admitting their romance by posting their pictures on their social media.

While they started indulging themselves more in their relationship, it was short-lived with the reports surfaced that the couple split up just after two months of dating each other. Even after many doubted whether the couple was involved in a “real” relationship, the Canadian star confirmed in an interview that they were indeed real however they were not serious about it.

In a video recorded of JLo during a concert back in 2017 in Las Vegas, she commented when one of Drake’s songs started playing in the middle of her performance. When she was performing, as usual, the music slows down, and a piece of music suspiciously like Drake’s hit Hotline Bling played.

She stopped dancing and put her hand on her hip, stating, “Huh, booty call.” She continued her performance after giving her fans a hair flip. Though that was unclear whether she called her ex Drake during the interlude or if it was just a reference to Drake’s song which is about booty calls.

Rihanna and Drake’s Relationship

The former couple Rihanna and Drake had an on-off relationship that lasted from 2009 to 2016. The ex-couple tried to make their relationship work, however, it didn’t happen. Their chemistry was on full display in their live performances and music videos while they were in a relationship, however, the Barbadian singer revealed in 2018 that the former couple was no longer close.

Even though the ex-couple had a pretty casual summer fling back in 2016, Rihanna didn’t like Lopez getting close with her ex-boyfriend especially when the couple separated a while before Lopez’s dating rumors emerged. She didn’t say anything publicly to Lopez but went on to unfollow the On the Floor on Instagram.
