Drake loses over $100 million to gambling in one month

Popular Canadian rapper, Drake, has made headlines again — but this time for a huge gambling loss. In just one month, he reportedly lost more than 100 million dollars to betting.

Drake, known for hits like One Dance, shared a photo on Instagram showing how much he had lost while using the betting platform, Stake. The screenshot revealed a total loss of $124,527,265 in the last month.

In his Instagram story, Drake wrote, “Gotta share the other side of gambling… Losses are so fried right now. I hope I can post a big win for you all soon cause I’m the only one that has never a max these guys max once a week.” His message shows that even with his fame, gambling has taken a toll on him.

This isn’t Drake’s first big loss. Back in August 2024, he lost $450,000 after betting on UFC fighter Israel Adesanya, who was defeated by Dricus du Plessis in a middleweight title fight.

Then in November 2024, he lost another $355,000 after placing a bet on boxing legend Mike Tyson. Tyson lost to YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul in a heavyweight match held at AT&T Stadium in Texas.
