Drake mercilessly roasted for ‘fake' six-pack abs: ‘Arms and chest sold separately'
In the snapshot, the Nokia hitmaker revealed his glistening six-pack and tattoos while posing behind a stocked bar.
He also shared a brief video clip of himself jogging shirtless down a park path.
'I'm wide awake for the nights that separate the type who get to it til they get it right from the type who just … type,' the Grammy-winning artist captioned the post on the weekend.
But sceptical followers took to the comments to jokingly speculate about how the rapper achieved his dramatically toned waistline.
'Ordered abs from temu n forgot to add shoulders n [triceps] lol,' one person quipped, while another mocked, 'Boy stop playing! The only place you ran was to the surgeon.'
'Arms and chest sold separately,' a third wrote, while a fourth bluntly claimed, 'Those are fake.'
'The abs do not match the body,' yet another observed, while someone else wondered, 'Arm definition surgery is next month?'
'I just came here for the comments and they sure as hell delivered …,' another user noted of the public roasting.
Adding fuel to the speculation, plastic surgery Instagram account @surgeonmade_curves reposted the photo, claiming in the caption that Drake, 38, 'did it again.'
The account alleged that the Canadian rapper, who consistently shares content from his workouts on social media, is 'no stranger to the surgery table.'
'This man be too hype to show them abs/body and gives it away every single time,' they claimed.
Drake was previously labelled 'BBL Drizzy' by fellow rapper Rick Ross following rumours the Degrassi star underwent a Brazilian butt lift and other cosmetic procedures.
But this latest shirtless selfie isn't the first time Drake has made a provocative play for attention.
Ahead of rival Kendrick Lamar's showstopping Super Bowl halftime show in February, the Hotline Bling rapper was spotted in an eyebrow-raising outfit while stepping out in Australia.
The Toronto-born MC rocked a suggestive T-shirt with the words, 'Wait till u see my,' with an arrow pointing downward to his privates.
He added bright yellow shorts and accessorised with a blue beanie hat and blue cowboy boots for the outing to Gibney restaurant Down Under.

50 Cent congratulates rival Diddy for not-guilty verdict on top charges: ‘The Gay John Gotti'
50 Cent was quick to react to the Sean 'Diddy' Combs verdict Wednesday – seemingly hailing the disgraced rapper for beating the feds before quickly dubbing him 'the Gay John Gotti.' 'Diddy beat the Feds that boy a bad man!' the rapper said in an Instagram post alongside a photo of himself grinning and applauding emojis. 50 Cent, who has a longstanding feud with the disgraced music mogul, then compared him to the infamous Mafia boss who was nicknamed 'The Teflon Don' after prosecutors couldn't get charges to stick, The NY Post reports. 'Beat the Rico, he the Gay John Gotti,' the rapper added. The 'In Da Club' hip-hop artist was name-dropped during the trial back in May during shocking testimony that touched on the longstanding feud between the hip-hop legends. Diddy's ex-assistant, Capricorn Clark, had told jurors her boss once implied he might pull a gun on Fitty. 'I don't like all the back and forth … I like guns,' Clark recalled Combs telling his manager after seeing 50 Cent at an MTV event. 50 Cent – who famously took nine bullets during a 2000 shooting in Queens – reacted to the name-drop with mocking faux fear. 'Wait a minute PUFFY's got a gun, I can't believe this I don't feel safe,' the New York City native posted on Instagram after the testimony. 'LOL.' The beef between the pair began nearly 20 years ago after 50 Cent, whose real name Curtis James Jackson III, released a diss track — 'The Bomb' — in 2006 that accused Combs of knowing who killed The Notorious B.I.G. He spent much of the Combs' sex-trafficking trial roasting him over the torrent of graphic evidence and accusations levelled against him. The Bad Boy Records founder was ultimately found guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution. He was acquitted on two sex-trafficking charges and one racketeering charge. The acquittals on the sex trafficking counts mean he will avoid a 15-year mandatory minimum sentence. He could have faced life in prison if he were convicted on sex trafficking or racketeering conspiracy. Combs now faces a maximum 10-year prison sentence on each of the two prostitution counts.

Sean 'Diddy' Combs acquitted of sex trafficking, convicted on lesser charge
Music mogul Sean "Diddy" Combs was found not guilty of racketeering and sex trafficking on Wednesday but convicted of a less serious prostitution charge after a high-profile seven week trial in New York. The jury, after 13 hours of deliberation over three days, found Combs guilty of two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution, each of which carries a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison. Combs, 55, smiled and looked relieved as the verdict was read out. He shook hands with one of his lawyers and said "thank you" to members of the eight-man four-woman jury as they left the courtroom. Judge Arun Subramanian also thanked the jury for their service before dismissing them. "You listened, you worked together, you were here every day, rain or shine," he said. "You did so with no reward, other than the reward that comes from answering the call of public service." The verdict came at the end of a trial in which prosecutors had accused Combs of being the boss of a decades-long criminal group who directed loyal employees and bodyguards to commit myriad offenses at his behest. The alleged crimes included forced labor, drug distribution, kidnapping, bribery, witness tampering and obstruction and arson. To find Combs guilty of racketeering, jurors needed to find the existence of a criminal enterprise and that the organization committed at least two of the offenses. Jurors announced a partial verdict late Tuesday and said they were deadlocked on the racketeering charge but Judge Arun Subramanian instructed them to keep working. Combs, once one of the most powerful figures in the music industry, had vehemently denied all charges. - 'Untouchable' - Jurors began deliberating on Monday after the judge read them nearly three hours of instructions on how to apply the mountain of evidence and testimony in the case to the law. The trial included at-times disturbing testimony along with thousands of pages of phone, financial and audiovisual records. Combs was charged with sex trafficking two women: singer Casandra Ventura and a woman who testified under the pseudonym Jane. Both were in long-term relationships with the entrepreneur and hip hop powerhouse, and they each testified about abuse, threats and coercive sex in wrenching detail. They both said they felt obligated to participate in Combs-directed sexual marathons with hired men. Combs's lawyers insisted the sex was consensual. They conceded domestic violence was a feature of his relationships -- one harrowing example of him beating and dragging Ventura was caught on security footage that has been widely publicized. Yet while disturbing, that did not amount to sex trafficking, the defense said. But prosecutors in their final argument tore into Combs's team, who they said had "contorted the facts endlessly." "In his mind he was untouchable," prosecutor Maurene Comey told the court. "The defendant never thought that the women he abused would have the courage to speak out loud what he had done to them."

‘Didn't mean to almost break your back': Fans scream as Post Malone falls off stage
Post Malone fans were left screaming in fear at a recent gig as the music superstar fell off the stage. The genre-busting singer, 29, strutted down the walkway at his concert in Arizona with a red cup in hand. As he reached the end of the runway he crouched down to cheers a fan who was filming the moment. However, crowd-pleaser Post's goodwill took an unfortunate turn and as he put his foot on a flimsy block it fell away, causing him to tumble onto the floor. The incident happened as Post – real name Austin Richard Post – sang his and Blake Shelton's hit Pour Me A Drink. The fan filming the moment uploaded the footage online and wrote, 'I didn't mean to almost break your back.' Fortunately, Post wasn't injured and continued with the show, playing five more songs. Since the gig, Post's personal life has made headlines. Last night TMZ reported that the singer has split from girlfriend Christy Lee, 20. The outlet claims the pair went their separate ways about a month ago, having only gone public at the start of the year following his split from ex-fiancee Hee Sung 'Jamie' Park. Post kept his relationship with Jamie private, aside from publicly acknowledging their engagement and the birth of their daughter in 2022. They are currently locked in a custody battle. Christy is a student at Parsons School of Design in New York, studying strategic design and management. She's also an aspiring influencer, often posting trend-driven videos on TikTok — from what's-in-my bag to fashion hauls. She went to high school in Newport Beach, California, before moving to the East Coast. Christy worked as a sales associate, hostess and social media intern at Bella Venice while living in California. Following her relocation to New York, she first found employment as a social media manager, before becoming an assistant stylist at Kristina Askerova Studio.
