Canadian singer Drake has sparked controversy after he posted a photo of a mystery woman in a restaurant without her knowing.
Drake is popular among the masses for his unique R&B chartbusters…

According to reports, Drake is currently on vacation.
The singer posted a video of himself singing along while a restaurant’s entertainer performed a song.
But then he shared a very controversial photo with his 117 million followers…
The photo wasn’t even a selfie or a picture of himself…
It was a photo of a woman.
Which sparked even more outrage.
Fans started calling out the chart-topper and labeled him as “unbelievably creepy.”
While sharing a screenshot of Drake’s story on Reddit, one fan wrote: “I haven’t seen anyone talking about this, this is so unbelievably creepy (Drake posted this on his IG story).”
Meanwhile others pointed out “that it would be bad enough if anybody did this to a stranger,” but the rapper doing this on a huge platform is more “problematic.”
“Yes she’s beautiful but he could have kept that to himself or been a normal person and struck up a conversation instead of posting this to his Instagram where he has MILLIONS of followers who are now gonna chime in on their opinion of her,” wrote another person.
And others could not help but simply bash the hip hop sensation with criticisms…
“As if taking pictures of unsuspecting strangers isn’t bad—and unfortunately normalized—enough, this guy is a celebrity, blasting out a random unaware woman’s picture to millions and millions of people,” said another.
“Wouldn’t a celebrity understand the need for privacy? or has his perception been so distorted because no one cares about protecting his privacy, therefore he doesn’t care about others’?” agreed one person.
Some people even went as far as flagging Drake’s post, as they thought it was “an open invitation for fans to dissect the woman’s looks,” according to reports.
“Everyone making comments online with deciding if they agree that she is hot or not, with many saying not,” one person commented.
While another added it should be “illegal” for someone to call you unattractive on the internet.
“Imagine all of a sudden an unsuspecting picture of you is on the internet and thousands are telling you you are unattractive, it should be illegal,” they wrote.
And the comments kept pouring in, with some calling the singer “f****** creepy.”
“Drake is a creep and a weirdo,” another added.
“Seriously. I can only imagine how disturbing it would be to receive a picture of myself from some unknown person that was watching me,” one person expressed.
In the photo, the woman is sitting at her table with a male companion and looking down at her phone.
Her blonde hair is tied back and she is wearing a pink crop top, seemingly completely oblivious to the attention that she is receiving from Drake.
Reportedly, the 35-year-old singer wanted to send the woman a photo of herself that he took…
Via Airdrop.
He said:
“Tried to airdrop this woman a pic of herself cause she’s a dime.”
And that’s not all…
He even added a shrugging and laughing emoji, which brewed controversy to the next level.
People were obviously unhappy with Drake’s rather weird antics.
And this didn’t go down too well with his followers who even compared him to stalker Joe Goldberg from the TV show You…
“What in the name of Joe Goldberg,” said one person.
Despite the harsh criticisms from the public…
Drake has not commented on it.
