Cosplayer and content creator Pinkchyu, winner of Drake’s viral 20-vs-1 speed-dating challenge, revealed that another prominent musician sent her a direct message featuring an audio recording of a dog bark. The August 14 disclosure follows Drake’s own viral dog imitation and his commitment to buy Pinkchyu’s mother a new house.
The whirlwind fallout from a high-profile livestream dating competition continues to generate waves across social media and the music industry. Pinkchyu, the viral cosplayer and OnlyFans creator who captured the top spot during a livestreamed event, is now fielding audio messages from other major names in the music business according to reporting from TMZ. While the creator declined to name the mysterious admirer, she noted that the sender is a pretty massive
and huge musician
who chose to mimic a canine in her inbox. Pinkchyu initially thought the bizarre message had to be a joke and ultimately did not respond because she did not even know what to say.
Drake’s Viral Dating Show Fallout and the Mother’s House Reveal
The trend traces directly back to Drake’s appearance on a Stake anniversary livestream on Kick broadcasted over the weekend of August 8, 2026. During the speed-dating format, the rapper memorably barked on command for Pinkchyu, a moment that instantly dominated social media feeds. After securing her victory in the competition, the streamer revealed that the artist intended to fulfill a major promise. As Pinkchyu previously reported, all she had to do was pick out a listing and Drake would cover the cost to buy her mom a house.
Pinkchyu, who lists her name as Lin Lamar on Instagram, posted a heartwarming clip on Tuesday, August 12, documenting her mother’s stunned reaction to the news that Drake is going to be buying her a brand new house. In the emotional exchange, Pink told her mother, The first thing that came to mind was everything you’ve done for me and my sisters, and he’s gonna buy you a house.
The streamer’s mom nearly broke down before the matriarch responded with disbelief, asking, Are you serious?
Oh my God!
I can’t believe it!
The Instagram post quickly drew more than 240,000 likes as Pinkchyu put the whirlwind of the last few days in perspective with her caption: I’m so grateful for everything that has happened that past few days.
Thank you so much Drake and thank you to all the wonderfully kind I’ve met.
Prizes Distributed Across the Final Three Contestants
Pinkchyu made it to the final three of the 20-vs-1 dating game for Drake alongside influencer Jordyn Lucas and adult-film star Lena the Plug. Each finalist secured distinct prizes by the end of the evening. Lucas was named Drizzy’s bestie,
an outcome that earned her a new Hermès Kelly bag and cash. Meanwhile, Lena the Plug took home cash and a dream vacation for securing a win in the pipe
category. Pink scored the ultimate prize of whatever her heart desired, as she seemed to have a leg up on the competition, being the goth baddie with absolute O-cups
that Drake has been attempting to manifest.
| Contestant | Award or Prize |
|---|---|
| Pinkchyu | Ultimate winner choice, including a commitment for a new house for her mother |
| Jordyn Lucas | Hermès Kelly bag and cash |
| Lena the Plug | Dream vacation and cash |
Drake hosted Stake’s 9th anniversary livestream on Kick on Saturday night, August 8, which featured plenty of highlights, including Drizzy showing love to Tate McRae, sending a warning shot at the rest of hip-hop, and revealing Father Duck was his first MSN Messenger username. Despite the high-stakes television format, Pinkchyu clarified that she and Drake did not hook up after the show, though they did have some good conversations at the after-party. As for whether the mystery musician has a shot, Pinkchyu says she’s single, but isn’t exactly searching for love, noting she is focused on her career and doesn’t have much time for a relationship because she already has plenty of company at home with her cats.
A Busy Year for the Artist and His Online Imitators
The viral moment arrives during a productive release cycle for 2026, which has already been a busy year for Drake. Drake delivered his trifecta of albums in May, which saw ICEMAN, HABIBTI, and MAID OF HONOUR take the top three spots of the Billboard 200. Yet, it was the unscripted banter on the Kick livestream that sparked a wave of digital imitation. With the mystery musician sliding into her DMs with canine noises, it looks like Drake started a trend, and Pinkchyu’s direct messages are turning into a dog park.
