Will Smith, ‘Stranger Things’ and ‘Queer Eye’ Cast Appear in Drake’s ‘In My Feelings’ Video

Rapper’s newest video pays homage to the challenge of the summer

Drake dropped his official music video for “In My Feelings” on Friday, but not without paying homage to the challenge of the summer.

At the end of the video, it cuts to a montage of celebrities dancing to the song, including the cast of “Queer Eye,” “Stranger Things” stars Millie Bobby Brown and Noah Schnapp, and Will Smith (whose take on the challenge was particularly epic).

In case you weren’t aware, the “In My Feelings” challenge started when comedian Shiggy posted a video dancing to the track — which is the latest single from Drake’s new album “Scorpion” to hit No. 1 on the Billboard chart. Shiggy’s video soon when viral with others putting their own spin on his dance moves. Shiggy landed the role of annoying set PA in the video for his efforts.

The music video takes Drake to New Orleans, where in a Romeo-and-Juliet-meets-Say-Anything meeting, he tries to convince Keke, who is named in the song, that he loves her. After some pretty funny back-and-forth with her mom, Drake leaves and we’re taken into the city. At the end of the clip, Drake wakes up suddenly, and it was all a dream.

“I just had a dream that I made some song about some girl… and some kid from New York who spits when he talks made a dance to it and then the world did the dance, and Will Smith was there,” Drake says after waking from his nightmare.

“Nobody would stop, it was terrible,” Drake says in the video of the non-stop dancing to the song.

The video features “Power” star La La Anthony as Keke, and Phylicia Rashad as her mom. Drake once again worked with Karena Evans for this video, who also directed the videos for Drake’s other hits this year “God’s Plan,” “Nice for What” and “I’m Upset.”
