After the pair discussed what bets they had placed, Drake noticed the camera crew signalling for the reporters to wrap things up.
However, the rapper teased them, stating: “You can’t give it the wrap it up signal. What are you gonna cut to? What are you gonna cut to? A shot of, like, poorly manicured grass, or something?”
