Video: Drake stops live performance to warn fan from harassing girls

Drake stopped on Wednesday a performance in Sydney to tell an audience member to stop groping girls in the crowd, after which the crowd went wild in his support and since then the singer has been trending.

The rapper was in the middle of performing one of his hit songs ‘Know Yourself’ at Sydney's Marquee nightclub when he stopped to address a man in the crowd who he saw groping women in the audience. “Yo, stop that s**t,” Drake told the man. “If you don't stop touching girls, I'm gonna come out there and f**k you up”.

The audience burst out into applause and soon the video went viral on different social networking sites.

Drake put his microphone down and continued to speak to the fan afterwards. However, it’s still unclear whether the fan was thrown out of the club or not.

The Toronto-based rapper is set to perform three shows in Melbourne from this weekend to cap off the Australian leg of his ‘Boy Meets World’ tour.
