Drake thrilled concertgoers in his native
Toronto on Saturday night by joining fellow Canadian pop star Justin Bieber onstage for a performance of their
duet "Right Here."
Bing: 'Bald for Bieber' hoax
Drake, real name Aubrey Graham, recently teamed up with Bieber on his new
album "Believe," and on Saturday they played the track for more than 60,000 fans
at the rapper's hometown's biggest stadium, the Rogers Centre, also known as the
SkyDome.
Surprising revellers as he joined Bieber, Drake told the crowd, "I'll tell
you, there's very few people I met in the world that are as talented and as
incredible as this young man right here. I want to thank [Bieber] for letting me
live a childhood dream, which is my first opportunity to perform at the SkyDome.
So thank you, my man."
The pair also sang a rendition of Drake's song "The Motto," with Bieber
filling in for Lil Wayne.
