Fashion Nova has removed an image on a product listing for a BBL Halloween costume after fans saw a likeness to Drake.
The US fast fashion retailer had listed a ‘BBL Booty Butt Pad Costume Accessory’ earlier this month, with no specific reference to Drake’s name.
However, it wasn’t long before fans began to suggest the costume was “trolling” the rapper, given that the model was wearing a silver grill and barrettes in his hair, as well as a sweatshirt emblazoned with the word “papi” – which fans suggested was a nod to the rapper’s Instagram handle ‘champagnepapi’.
The image has since been removed from the website, but users on Twitter/X have been sharing their reactions. Check them out below.

It follows Drake’s feud with Kendrick Lamar this summer, which dominated pop culture, and the hip-hop agenda, for several months. Numerous rap luminaries chimed in to share their thoughts, including André 3000, who said it made him feel “a little sad”, and Questlove, who called it “wrestling match level mudslinging and takedown by any means necessary”.
Most observers judge Lamar to have won the feud, which had been bubbling since 2013, and exploded earlier this year when Kendrick featured on ‘Like That’ from Metro Boomin and Future’s joint album ‘We Don’t Trust You’ and resulted in the two trading scathing diss tracks.
Lamar dropped ‘Not Like Us’ – his fourth Drake diss track – in May, telling the Canadian rapper: “Say Drake, I hear you like ’em young/ You better not ever go to cell block one/ To any bitch that talk to him and layin’ love/ Just make sure you hide your little sister from ’em,.”
The song topped the Billboard Hot 100 and broke the Spotify record for the most streamed rap song in one day.
In other news, earlier this year, Drake was hit with a cease-and-desist letter from the late Tupac’s estate after the Toronto rapper used AI replication of the ‘California Love’ rapper’s vocals on his Lamar diss track ‘Taylor Made Freestyle‘.
The rapper was told by litigator Howard King that his diss track must be taken down in less than 24 hours. If not, Tupac’s estate would go ahead and “pursue all of its legal remedies” against him.
Drake went on to remove the track from all streaming platforms as well as all of his social media accounts following the lawsuit threat from the estate of the late West Coast rapper.
