McDonald's PR Reportedly Says Drake Gave $200 not $20K to Employees
Update: McDonald's PR reportedly denies Drake giving $20K to Two L.A. employees
On Wednesday night, a CNN reporter tweeted that McDonald's PR company stated that Drake did not tip the employees $10,000 and that he gave them $100 each instead.
The Twitter user who was sourced as revealing that Drake had entered the McDonald's insists that Drake did, indeed gift the two employees$10, 000 each, claiming one worker was a friend, and another cried hysterically in the back of the restaurant afterward.
\u201cI've just confirmed with the PR company who represents @McDonalds that @Drake did not tip $10,000 to the employees he gave them $100 each\u201d— Chloe Melas (@Chloe Melas) 1548897689
\u201c@DJJackSwanson @Chloe_Melas @McDonalds @Drake The supposed PR team at least... who apparently knows more than I (who was standing right there) and one of the employees who got the $10k (who I know personally since I visit that McDonald\u2019s location on a regular basis) do.\u201d— Chloe Melas (@Chloe Melas) 1548897689
He continued, adding another tweet to his initial thread from the day of the encounter, saying Drake had entered the restaurant to use the bathroom after going through the drive-thru first.
\u201c& since y\u2019all want to believe a certain individual (who wasn\u2019t there) who apparently contacted a McDonald\u2019s \u201cPR team\u201d (who also wasn\u2019t there) - this didn\u2019t happen inside. He came through the drive-thru first & only came inside (with his security guards) to use the bathroom.\u201d— AJ \ud83c\udf39 (@AJ \ud83c\udf39) 1548504213
\u201cOne of the employees (who I know since I visit that particular location often) turned to me as he and his security guards walked in (after going through the drive-thru) and whispered what just happened as the other female employee started crying hysterically in the back.\u201d— AJ \ud83c\udf39 (@AJ \ud83c\udf39) 1548504213

Drizzy might be up to something good.
Drake was spotted in a Los Angeles McDonald's gifting money to employees.
The "God's Plan" rapper reportedly gave $10,000 in cash to two women working in the restaurant.

Last year, Drake gave away $1 million to Miami residents while filming his music video for his hit, “God’s Plan.”
It's unclear whether his latest charitable deeds are tied to a project rollout, but he did have cameras capture the moment. Drizzy posted a photo to his Instagram Tuesday night, that appeared to show him and a security guard in a McDonald's speaking to workers behind the counter.
A Twitter user claimed to have witnessed the rapper making the real-time donations, tweeting, “Just saw Drake in McDonald’s… crazy,” adding, “And he gave two female employees $10,000 each… in cash.”
\u201cAnd he gave two female employees $10,000 each... in cash.\u201d— AJ \ud83c\udf39 (@AJ \ud83c\udf39) 1548504213
Drak hasn't released a statement on the donations but he may be up to some good. We'll have to wait and see.
