Just six months ago, we all watched Drake embarrass himself declare his love for Rihanna at the VMAs. It was the curve seen ’round the world.

But – bless his heart – Drake’s out-of-his-league ambitions rage unabated, and it seems he has directed them at our royal queen JLo.

For about a week now, rumors have been swirling that the two are an item, prompted by this Instagram post and the fact that Drake went to multiple performances of JLo’s Vegas show this month.

According to her rep, the two are working on a music project together, which means in 2017 we can look forward to yet another music video in which Drake tries to run game at a woman too glorious for him to handle.

In the meantime, I’ll be over here crafting elaborate JLo-Drake-Marc Anthony love triangle fanfic, and awaiting the Peak Drake heartbreak album that is sure to follow.

UPDATE 12/28: The individuals formerly known as Drake and JLo – heretofore known as JAKE – have added fuel to the fire of their relationship rumors with these simultaneous Instagram posts. Whether this is a real relationship or just a publicity stunt to promote their collaboration, the PR is strong with these ones.
