Drake Set to Host 2014 ESPYs
Emo rapper Aubrey Drake Graham is set to host the 2014 ESPY Awards. The 27-year-old Canadian rapper is known to have an affinity for hard leg professional athletes. Although sports purists are complaining bitterly about Drake’s ESPY hosting duties, his credentials as a team mascot “global ambassador” for the Toronto Raptors NBA franchise uniquely qualifies him to handle the ESPYs gig.

Drake hastily signed a partnership deal with his hometown Raptors shortly after he was publicly humiliated by the American Airlines Arena security staff following the Miami HEAT’s back-to-back NBA Championship win last season.
The arena security guards refused to allow Drake access into the HEAT locker room to celebrate with the team.
Drake has battled gay rumors his entire career. In an effort to dispel the rumors that he prefers manly back rubs, Drake hangs out with drug addled, alcoholic singer Rihanna.
Drake broke the news Wednesday that, to go along with his many other talents, he’ll show off his “award show host” chops this summer when he hosts the 2014 ESPY ceremony. There are trophies for that.
The Toronto-native and Raptors’ global ambassador made the announcement over Twitter, with a golf-themed spoof of his last album cover:
Drake is no stranger to the sports world — you heard “Draft Day,” right? — so it makes some sense for ESPN to name him the host. (His attempts to hang out with athletes are not always successful, though) Most recently Drake was seen sneaking into the Kentucky locker room to congratulate the team for making the NCAA national title game. (Maybe he’s cursed? Uh oh.)

right because sportsfans are not all hip hop fans. its a lot of old people and rich ppl that dont want the teams they have season tickets for represented by some emo rapper….let alone a black/jewish/canadian one.
but at the same time we put up with their bullspit so its fine time for them to put up with some of ours.
comedians and singers has hosted the awards…. drake will be fine he has crossover appeal anyway and based on that SNL stint he will do fine
but those photos? cant live them down bruh
Good Morning *diddy voice*
@Hearts yeah not yesterday but the day before near the end of the day so I’m sure everyone would be happy to drag Cassie on mo gin for her pathetic attempts to roast somebody. She’s much better off dyck riding, head shaving, and squinty eyein Diddly for her supper. Ol Tommy azz broad….
