Drake’s ‘goth baddie’ Pinkchyu draws attention after alleged ‘pre-plastic surgery’ photos resurface
The renewed interest follows Pinkchyu’s appearance on Drake’s 20-v-1 dating show, which was streamed on Kick
Lin Lamar, known online as Pinkchyu, has drawn renewed attention after alleged older photos resurfaced online following her appearance with Drake on a dating show.
The resurfaced images have been described as possible “pre-plastic surgery” photographs although it is not established when the image was taken and rumours of cosmetic procedures remain uncomfirmed.
Pinkchyu, who has become known for her gothic-inspired appearance, often wears dark make-up, black clothing, chokers and cosplay-inspired outfits.
The alleged older image appears to show her with a different hairstyle, lighter make-up and a fuller figure.
The renewed interest follows Pinkchyu’s appearance on Drake’s 20-v-1 dating show, which was streamed on Kick on August 8.
During their one-on-one conversation, the pair discussed role play before Pinkchyu asked the rapper, “Would you bark for me?”
Drake replied, “You can look me dead in my eyes … if you say do it, I would.”
Pinkchyu then asked him to bark, prompting Drake to respond with a playful bark and growl. She followed by saying, “Good boy.”
The moment quickly circulated online, while Pinkchyu later shared a clip of the exchange on X, formerly known as Twitter. She captioned the post, “I’m the goth baddie.”
Pinkchyu was ultimately selected as the winner of the dating show. Drake reportedly offered her a prize of her choice, and she asked for a house for her retired mother.
Drake previously said he was looking for a “goth baddie” who was “tatted all over” during a 2025 appearance on Bobbi Althoff’s podcast.
