Calling all Drake doppelgangers! Now’s your time to show if you’re truly the 6 God’s twin at an upcoming lookalike contest in Toronto. 

In light of the recent viral lookalike contests held in the U.S., including for Timothée Chalamet, Harry Styles and Jeremy Allen White, new Toronto-based bakery Casuals Cakery is hosting a new contest on none other than Canadian rapper Drake. 

The 19+ Drake Era’s Lookalike Contest is set for Saturday, Dec. 14 at Apt. 200, near Queen St. and Ossington Ave, from 4 to 6 p.m. Entry is first come first served, with limited space. 

Casuals Cakery claims this contest will be the first in Canada where Drake fans can come together for an afternoon of nostalgia.

“This is a Drake Era’s event so we are looking for the person who can show the most style, entertainment & creativity in honouring the city icon. There may or may not be a freestyle rap battle,” Casuals Cakery said in a statement to media. 

“A perfect event to meet crodies, broski’s & your rich baby daddy,” the company said in its Instagram post.

Participants are encouraged to pay homage to all of Drake’s fashion eras style and the winner will be crowned to “the most creative, entertaining and (whoever) honours Drake’s aesthetic the best.”

Besides the hilariously entertaining turnout this event is sure to have, the winner will also take home a “certified Toronto Manz pack,” with a bottle of Hennessy, and a pack of Backwoods, among other prizes. 

Casuals Cakery will also be on hand selling treats and some free samples. 

The contest comes as Drake has been making headlines lately, mostly for his feud with rapper Kendrick Lamar that began in the spring.
