Drake celebrated his 25th
birthday at TAO on Saturday night. The
Young Money/Cash Money Grammy-nominated, platinum-selling recording artist and
actor was joined by friends, family and fans for the Las Vegas bash presented
by MARTINI® Moscato d’Asti.
DJ Franzen manned the decks
first, giving way to DJ Future the Prince, a childhood friend Drake personally
flew in for the occasion. Future laid
down the beats as Drake and friends took over a group of VIP tables on the dance floor and Drake made his way out to the crowd to
greet his fans. The birthday boy, who
stayed on the mic for much of the night, was presented with a cake in the shape
of a varsity jacket and had a surprise visit from Birdman, co-founder of Cash
Money Records and rapper Mack Maine, who is president of Young Money
Entertainment. While Drake had his own
cake, 600 MARTINI Moscato d’Asti infused cake pops were delivered to the crowd.
TAO’s bottle fairy “owl” flew
over the dance floor as confetti rained down, delivering a bottle of MARTINI
Moscato d’Asti to Drake’s table as club goers partied to some of his biggest
hits and Drake thanked her for “risking your life for me”.
The generous star bought 200
shots for the crowd and told them, “I’m celebrating my birthday and want you
all to celebrate with me. Go to the bar
and get your shot on me”. Another table
sent over 20 bottles of Champagne,
prompting him to say, “I don’t know how I am going to drink all this…guess I
will have to share it.” Share he did as
he went on to the dance floor like the pied piper of bubbly, passing out
bottles. Drake was having such a great
time he stayed at TAO until 4 am.
The party marks the beginning
of what is expected to be an exciting couple of months for Drake, with the
release of his highly-anticipated sophomore album, Take Care, on November 15.
