Drake hands fans $30k Birkin bags at his California show

Drake thrilled fans at his Kia Forum show in Inglewood, California on Wednesday when he gifted one lucky concert-goer with an exceptionally expensive designer handbag. 

The 36-year-old Canadian rapper sent a shocked fan home with a pink Hermes Birkin bag after spotting her in the front row.

Retailing for approximately $35,000 (£27,468) on resale websites, Drake waltzed around the stage with the item in hand as he took a break from performing his hits to scan the audience. 

The star declared ‘Drake ain’t cheap’ to the packed arena as he decided to make one woman’s day. 

Captured on TikTok by a page labelled Designer.Ave, the star appeared to lean down and hand the luxury good to a pair of outstretched arms reaching up towards him. 

Thinking his gesture through, the artist also quipped: ‘Make sure she has security on the way out,’ before finishing the exchange and getting back to his business. 

His show tonight at the Forum in LA 😍But why wasnt it me lmao #itsablurtour #drake #birkin #losangeles #forum #california

The star had revealed the significance of the particular bag in the past and explained his fascination with the purses to the Hollywood Reporter in 2017. 

Drake admitted that he had been collecting Birkin handbags and saving them to gift to ‘the woman I end up with’. 

Now, it seemed he was willing to part with one from his collection and give back to his Californian fans who showed up to watch him mid-week. 


The TikTok clip was uploaded with a caption that read: ‘His show tonight at the Forum in LA But why wasn’t it me lmao #itsablurtour #drake #birkin #losangeles #forum #california.’ 

Fans rushed to comment on the generous act underneath the footage that showed the star pacing the stage in a vest that had neon lights built inside of it.

One said: ‘Omg can u imagine not only getting a free Birkin, but getting a free Birkin from Drake.’ 

Another penned: ‘Can we talk about how he made sure the girl got security out the show to her car!?! the consideration this man has!!’

‘Someone would have to do cpr if that was me bc I would stroke out,’ a separate account exclaimed on the video sharing platform.
