Pinkchyu is playing coy about whether she and Drake are officially an item.
The 20-year-old influencer, who won the rapper’s viral speed-dating stream last month as “Goth Baddie,” said on September 22 that her inner circle has sworn her to secrecy on the subject. The exchange was filmed in Los Angeles, where she appeared alongside two friends dressed in matching goth style.
“They know, and they are telling me not to say anything,” she replied when asked directly about a romantic relationship with Drake, 39. Her companions broke into laughter as she continued: “They told me not to say. I can’t…”
The cryptic response comes weeks after the pair reunited for Drake’s “September 15” project, a not-so-short film that featured Pinkchyu in a segment titled “Princess.” In the flick, she held the Canadian rapper’s hand and gave him an emo makeover with chains, black attire and smudged eyeliner from a Hot Topic haul. His mother and Sexxy Red also made appearances in the stream, which has since been removed from YouTube and is no longer available to view.
“I actually felt like a princess,” Pinkchyu said of filming the segment.
The rapper’s fascination with goth aesthetics predates their meeting. During a 2025 podcast interview with Bobbi Althoff, Drake described his dream woman as “some tweaked out goth, kinda tatted all over.”
“I really feel like my destiny is to wind up with a goth baddie with just absolute O cups,” he said at the time, adding that she had to be “funny.”
Pinkchyu, also known as Lin Lamar, appeared to fit the bill when she won the 20-vs-1 dating challenge. Upon her victory, Drake told her she could ask him to buy her anything. Her request: a house for her mother. The rapper agreed, and Pinkchyu confirmed that the plan remains active.
“It’s in the works, I’m excited,” she said of their house-hunting efforts.
Her sudden fame has attracted attention beyond Drake. When asked whether other celebrities had slid into her DMs since the stream and film, she declined to name names but offered a memorable detail.
“Oh my god, so I’m not gonna say who, they’re pretty massive, I kid you not sent me an audio recording of them barking. I was like this has gotta be a joke, there’s just no way,” she shared.
The barking reference carries extra weight for those who followed the original stream. During the speed-dating competition that brought them together, Drake barked for Pinkchyu after selecting her as his match, a moment that quickly circulated online and helped cement her “Goth Baddie” moniker. She later posted a photo of the pair together on her Instagram page with the caption: “Drake finally found his goth baddie.”
Drake has not publicly addressed the dating speculation himself.
