VIDEO: Drake Talks Porn and Marriage Possibilities in Fake Stern Show Interview
“He edited himself in to look like he was in our studio,” Howard says of the viral clip, “It sounds pretty seamless”

Hip-hop superstar Drake made headlines last week after a conversation he had on the Stern Show about love and pornography went viral. As Howard explained it Monday morning, this was quite unexpected because while many of his A-list guest interviews have made news and generated millions of digital views, Drake has never actually been a guest on the Stern Show.
“He edited himself in to look like he was in our studio,” Howard said, explaining Drake published the Instagram clip — which already has 16 million views and 1 million likes — as part of a fake media campaign to promote “Her Loss,” Drake and 21 Savage’s new album. “He’s answering questions using me [and] clips from a different interview … It sounds pretty seamless.”
“What kind of porn are you watching?” Howard asked in the clip.
“Top, the highest gear of top givers … Those are the real superstars of the world to me,” Drake responded before opening up about love and fidelity.
“Wow, it sounds real!” co-host Robin Quivers remarked.
Howard marveled at not only the realism of the clip, which multiple media outlets wrongly believed was authentic, but at the clever way Drake managed to sidestep doing an actual press tour. “I would love to put together a fake tour and not have to go promote something,” he joked. “Hell, whenever I have to go visit my mother I wish I could do this.”
