## Summary

Drake hosted the third annual Strong Women, Stronger Drinks event at Toronto's Casa Loma mansion on 4 August, continuing his tradition of celebrating and supporting women in his life. The rapper gave each attendee $1,000 in cash as a welcome gift before handing out much larger prizes during the evening, with videos of the giveaways going viral on social media.

Guests who attended the invite-only gathering, aimed at successful women networking and socialising, received cash prizes of up to $50,000 and $100,000, while two lucky attendees won luxury cars in a raffle: one a new BMW, and Toronto Raptors reporter Kayla Grey a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagon. Drake explained the event was inspired by a similar gathering he attended around 2007-2008 called "What Women Want." The party comes during a strong year for Drake professionally, having released three projects, ICEMAN, HABIBTI and MAID OF HONOUR, in May, making him the first artist to simultaneously hold the top three spots on the Billboard 200.
