After hooking up with Young Money's Drake earlier in the week, former "Breaking Bad" star Aaron Paul has revealed how much of a role R&B vixen Rihanna had on putting Drizzy up on the award-winning show.
According to Paul, Drizzy told him RiRi is most responsible for having him get down with the series.
The ‘What Now’ hitmaker was “obsessed” with the hit series, which stars Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul, and managed to get her rapper pal to follow the crime drama too. Talking on London’s Capital FM Radio station, Aaron said: “Drake told me the other night ‘I’ve never watched the show but Rihanna was just so obsessed with it and so she got me on to it’.” (Female First)
Paul also dished on how much Drizzy and RiRi had kept in contact overseas.
Drake wanted Aaron to come and watch them on stage in Paris on Tuesday (25.02.14), where he was playing as part of his ‘Would You Like A Tour’, and Aaron admitted he was gutted to have missed the steamy duet which saw the pair perform ‘Pour It Up’ and their 2012 hit, ‘Take Care’ together. Araon added: “He goes, ‘I saw you the other night but I didn’t go up to you and I texted Rihanna that I saw you and you were here in Paris and we were just very excited. We wanted you to come to the show’ – and I just wasn’t able to.” (Female First)
Paul addressed a photo Drizzy uploaded to his Instagram page earlier this week.
“We saw him in Paris the other day… first time I met him, he just opened up his arms and gave me a hug and said what a fan he was of the show. And, you know, I’m such a huge fan of Drake as well. He’s a great hugger, it was very nice – it was a good moment,” Aaron recalled to BBC Radio 1 host Nick Grimshaw. (Film-News)
Drizzy posted a photo alongside Paul and referenced his “Breaking Bad” character a few days ago.
