Drake Calls In A Favor From Justin Bieber in Lavish 'Pop Star' Music Video

DJ Khaled and Drake's collaboration for "Popstar" stars one of the biggest pop stars of our time: Justin Bieber.

On Friday (September 4), the eight-minute clip, which was directed by Director X, sees Drizzy and Khaled open the video with a skit, where the super-producer is hounding the rapper for a music video. "This guy's off his rocker. I just, I don’t know what to say. It’s every waking moment that I’m alive. It’s like you give someone everything you have, and they’re just like, 'Another one,'" Drizzy says, before he calls in the big favor.

The rest of the clip follows Bieber as he lip-synchs the lyrics to the track as we see his ultra-lavish pop star lifestyle unravel. From waking up after a colossal house party to partying with friends and showing off his impressive tattoo collection while shooting a music video, Bieber is the walking epitome of a hardcore partying pop star, as per the lyrics to the hit track, of course. Towards the end of the clip, Bieber wakes up in bed again, only to realize that that extravaganza was just a dream.

"I had a crazy dream. Drake asked me to be in a video, but he wasn’t in the video. It was just a bunch of people," Bieber recalls. However, during a walk with Baldwin, he gets a call from Drizzy, prompting him to offer the camera a bewildered expression.

Bieber and DJ Khaled have a history of working with one another. The two collaborated with Quavo, Chance the Rapper and Lil Wayne on their global No. 1 from 2017, "I'm The One."
