Drake responds to criticism over claims he took a 14-minute flight on private jet
Drake has responded to recent criticism following reports that he took a 14-minute flight on a private jet, revealing that "nobody takes that flight".
Drake is one of many celebrities that have been called out recently for taking short and hugely polluting flights. As Complex reports, a Twitter account tracking celebrity private jet movements shared information about a 14-minute flight Drake reportedly took from Toronto to Hamilton earlier this month, and Drake responded in a now-deleted Instagram comment that highlighted he wasn't actually on the plane.
