Drake is one of the most bankable artists alive. He was the most streamed musician of the year on Spotify. He is drowning in awards. He has his own record label, clothing line, and deals on deals, from a $19 million partnership with Apple to major money in whiskey and sports. He seizes our hearts…
Gwyneth Paltrow’s days as Hollywood darling seem to be long gone.
