Drake Proves That Even Celebrities Have Unattainable Goals

You're familiar with Drake already, aren't you? Of course you are. You're totally down with the kids. Well, he's spent the weekend proving that even people with watch collections have hopes and dreams.

Not content with selling loads of records to over-protective hip-hop fans, Drake is apparently itching to play US President Barack Obama in a movie. It's the next logical step for a star whose previous acting experience includes, "Guy In Bathroom Mirror" and "Crymaxing On A Webcam".

The noted Thespian – who collaborated with Rihanna on 'What's My Name', in case you're still not sure who he is – has revealed that he studies Obama's mannerisms in case a role comes his way. Which it never will. Ever.

Of course, Drake isn't the first singer to say that they want to play a famous person in a film. In 2005 Michael Bublé told The Sun that he was in talks to play a member of the Rat Pack in "Frank Sinatra: The Primark Years" while more recently, Lady Gaga told assembled journalists that it was her life's ambition to play Madonna in a movie of her life.

Speaking to VH1, Drake said:

"I hope somebody makes a movie about Obama's life soon because I could play him. That's the goal. I watch all the addresses. Any time I seen him on TV, I don't change the channel. I definitely pay attention and listen to the inflections of his voice."

Let's get the inflections right before we look at anything else. The rapper, known for tracks such as Take Care and Over, is so dedicated to becoming an Obama impersonator that he's willing to take the advice of professionals.

"If you ask anyone who knows me, I'm pretty good at impressions."

There's your first mistake, Drake. Any idiot knows that you don't ask people who know you if you're good at something. How do you think we all ended up as writers, living in a hovel and eating our own shoes for sustenance? Exactly.
