Drake Teams Up With Nicki Minaj to Perform ‘Make Me Proud’ on ‘Saturday Night Live’

On Saturday, Oct. 15, 'Saturday Night Live' viewers were treated to a performance from Canadian rapper/singer Drake. Along with a full backing band, the 24 year old performed 'Headlines' and his recently debuted song 'Make Me Proud,' bringing out featured artist Nicki Minaj for a duet.

For his first performance, Drake tore through his new hit song 'Headlines,' which is featured on his upcoming album 'Take Care.' As Drizzy rapped the song, the lyrics to 'Headlines' were illuminated on screens behind and around the Young Money artist.

Later on in the show, Drake performed alongside surprise guest Nicki Minaj on their collaborative track 'Make Me Proud.' Drake, who recently admitted that he would marry Ms. Minaj in a heartbeat, got flirtatious with the bootylicious beauty, who wore a colorful bodysuit and a black wig. Their chemistry is quite apparent, leaving us with the impression that there is a glimmer of romance between the pair.

Drake didn't just entertain the crowd at 'Saturday Night Live' with his rapping skills, however. He also showed off his acting chops in a few skits, including one where he dressed up as a candy-snatchin' werewolf.
