He is not afraid to make fun of himself, even in his music videos.
And Drake continued to play good sports when he made a surprise appearance on Sunday in the Super Bowl LV commercial from State Farm Insurance.
The 34-year-old rap superstar joined 51-year-old Paul Rudd as a stand-ins in a meta commercial that also featured Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes , and Aaron Rodgers, Green Bay Packers quarterback.
Playing alone: 34-year-old Drake was a good sport in a State Farm commercial airing in Super Bowl Sunday, in which he played a place in an insurance commercial.
The ad was opened by Rodgers, 37, and Muhammad, 25, sitting in a movie studio before filming his commercial at State Farm.
“Hey Rodgers, it’s you!” cries the actor who replaces the defender who does not look like him and wears a cheese hat.
“Couldn’t you find a stand-in that looked like me?” Rodgers asks Jake at State Farm (played by Kevin Miles).
“Have you seen mine?” Mahomes asks before gesturing to Rudd, who is wearing the same lightning shirt and holding a football.

Not even close: “Hey Rodgers, it’s you!” shouts the actor who replaces the defender who doesn’t look like him and wears a cheese hat
Don’t buy it: “Couldn’t find a stand-in like me?” Rodgers asks State Farm Jake (played by Kevin Miles)
“It’s like looking in the mirror, isn’t it?” he says, before accidentally throwing the ball behind him.
“Now that it makes sense,” Rodgers teased the younger quarterback, who was on the field while broadcasting the ad.
But Jake at State Farm complains that he doesn’t even have a place to spare.
“Of course I do,” he blinks, grabbing some snacks at the boat service table.
A little better: “Have you seen mine?” Ask Muhammad before waving to Paul Rudd, who is wearing the same lightning shirt and holding a football
Oops! “It’s like looking in the mirror, isn’t it?” he jokes, before accidentally throwing the ball behind him
Surprise appearance: But Drake appears as Jake from the State Farm stand-in. “That’s right, Drake at State Farm,” he says straight away
Muhammad confidently asks if Jake from State Farm is Drake.
“That’s right, Drake at State Farm,” he says straight away.
Drake and the spokesman sit side by side in their red shirts and start reciting the brand’s slogan, but Jake from State Farm stops him halfway.
“Hey, the stand-ins have no lines,” he informs rapper Hotline Bling, who is cutting an apple while saying the slogan.
Although Drake is best known for his music career now, he first gained prominence in the Canadian high school series Degrassi, where he played Jimmy Brooks.
His character was originally a basketball star before being paralyzed in a school.
He closes: “Hey, stand-ins have no lines,” Jake informs rapper Hotline Bling as he tries to double his lines
Giving his imprint: Drake turns on an apple to throw Jake as he says the slogan
Sunday’s announcement of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Kansas City Chiefs game came shortly after Rodgers revealed he was engaged.
On Saturday, when he accepted the award for the most valuable NFL player of 2020 in a speech on YouTube, he briefly mentioned that he is getting engaged and thanked his “fiancée”, whom he did not name.
However, E! The news reported a few days earlier that the football star has a relationship with Shailene Woodley, 29 years old, from Big Little Lies.
Although he did not mention the actress in his acceptance speech, he thanked Jodie Foster, who collaborated with Woodley in her upcoming film The Mauritanian.
“They kept things private and discreet,” a source said, adding that the couple’s relationship was “remote.”
Are you already engaged ?! Sunday’s announcement comes after Rodgers revealed he was engaged, just days after E! The news reported that he was meeting Shailene Woodley
