Rihanna and Drake's past is a complicated one, to say the least. The two collaborated throughout the early 2010s, sparking rumours of an on-again, off-again romance. In 2010, Drake told The New York Times that just before he rose to fame, he felt like Rihanna played him like "a pawn" by showing him quality time and then ghosting him. In 2013, Drake confirmed on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" that they had shared a romantic "moment," adding he'll "always have love and support for her."
By 2016, the pair had released their hit "Work," performing together at several awards shows. Then, the 2016 VMAs happened. "Waiting through that speech was probably the most uncomfortable part," Rihanna told Vogue in 2018 about the presenter speech Drake gave, in which he infamously proclaimed his eternal love for her on national television. Two years later, Rihanna revealed that she and Drake weren't friends, but they weren't enemies either. "It is what it is," she quipped. However, the two have appeared to be on good terms in recent years.
