There’s a new viral phenomenon called the “Ice Bucket Challenge”, which sees celebrities raising money for charity by pouring - you guessed it - buckets of ice over themselves.
The campaign is an attempt to raise money and awareness for neurodegenerative disease Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), with Drake the latest to participate in the trend.
During their joint tour stop-off in Pittsburgh, Lil Wayne did the honours of pouring the ice bucket over Drizzy, with Drake later nominating Beyonce for the challenge. Watch below:
