And it sounds like engagement could be the next step.
“She’s someone I’ve been in love with her since I was 22 years old”, Drake said as Rihanna blushed and the audience cheered loudly. There’s less than 10 I can name in history: Truman, Ford, Hughes, Disney, Jobs, West.
He also took the opportunity to settle the score with Taylor, who was absent from the night, having received no nominations for her “Wildest Dreams” or “Out Of The Woods” music videos.
Determined to make light of the embarrassing situation, which was caught on camera, Drake claimed: “I’m jumping!” I see you Amber (laughs and points at his ex). Switching up her look with some baby bangs, Rihanna delivered her sultry “Pour it Up” and powerful “B***h Better Have My Money”. “They will be a real power couple in the biz”.
Others echoed the reaction writing: “Raise your hand if you though @Drake was going to propose to @rihanna #VMAs” and “Drake is gonna propose rn right?”

Bro. Bro! Tonight, we here to have fun.
The Daily Mail also reported that Drake and Rihanna both attended a VMAs after-party together on August 28 and even left together in the early hours of the morning. I was introduced to her as a kid who played background music at the restaurant as people ate their dinner. But most of all, we love the woman who hasn’t changed since day one.

In one of the most striking moments, a series of gun-shots rang out as her dancers, in angelic white dresses, each dropped to the ground in a red fog.

Dressed up in a smart tux and bow-tie for the occasion, Drake looked overcome with emotion at times as he made a gushing speech about his fellow Work singer.
