Drake Sings Along To "Bad Blood" In New Apple Ad, Making #Draylor A Thing

Drake and Taylor Swift, a celebrity power couple to bring about the apocalypse just waiting to happen, have teamed up for a new Apple Music ad. Kinda.

In it, Drake can be seen getting swole while singing along to Swift’s “Bad Blood” – until tragedy (of the mostly harmless, comical kind) strikes.

It’s an echo of Swift’s own Apple Music ad, in which she faceplants on a treadmill after singing Drake and Future’s “Jumpman”.

It’s not known if the ad was produced in response to Drake and Taylor’s recent dating rumours, or if the rumours were contrived in anticipation of this ad’s release.

(Note that both Drake and Taylor are ambassadors for Apple Music. Remember when Swift and Apple were sworn enemies? *Wistful gaze towards window.*)

Either way, Drake is happy to stoke the fires for a bit of self-perpetuating publicity: After posting the clip to Instagram, he added the hashtag #Draylor.

Sources say they’re just savvy business partners friends.

C’mon people. If we’re going to be conspiracy theorists for every other facet of Swift’s life, we’ve got to look at this thing with some healthy scepticism.
