"Degrassi" fans have always known that Drake is comfortable on camera, but the Toronto rapper really sold himself as a comedian with his stellar "Saturday Night Live" host and musical guest gig last year. Last night he followed that up with a high-profile hosting gig for the ESPYs.
This wasn't his first award show hosting job, though, having previously wet his feet helming the 2011 Juno Awards. That time, however, he was a multiple nominee and lost all six awards he was up for. Thankfully, this time he wasn't nominated for anything and could just let loose.
Here are Drake's highlights as ESPYs host, during which he tore Donald Sterling a new one for his "worst behavior," threw shade at Macklemore for winning the rap Grammy, sang "Let It Go" as good boxer/bad singer Manny Pacquiáo and did a hilariously uncomfortable slow jam called "Side Pieces" about athletes notorious cheating tendencies during road games. He even performed a skit with former arch-nemesis Chris Brown.
