Drake’s Career Goal: Playing President Obama

Besides his work on Degrassi, we can’t fairly judge Drake as an actor. Then again, he does a good job acting like a rapper, so who knows.  Anyway, the “Headlines” rapper wants to play the most powerful leader in the world — President Barack Obama.

“I hope somebody makes a movie about Obama’s life soon because I could play him. That’s the goal,” the Canadian rapper told VH1 News, via the New York Post. ”I watch all the addresses. Any time I see him on TV, I don’t change the channel.”

“I definitely pay attention and listen to the inflections of his voice. If you ask anyone who knows me, I’m pretty good at impressions,” he adds.

“I’ve been reading scripts for a while,” he told VH1. “I want to do something great. I want to do something for my culture: the younger people who are still in tune with everything going on. I’m actually writing with my friends right now.”
