Earlier this week, news that Drake had tipped two counter girls at a Los Angeles McDonald's 10K each after an order of a burger and fries went viral.
The report came from a Twitter user named AJ.
Just saw Drake in McDonald’s... crazy.

And he gave two female employees $10,000 each... in cash.

Sadly for the young ladies' bank accounts, local NBC 4 reporter Kim Baldonado spoke to the management of the franchise and got a different story.
@McDonalds confirms what an employee told me...@drake tipped 2 McDonald’s employees $100 each, NOT $10,000. The amount doesn’t take away from his generosity. https://t.co/jRVYooJKG4

AJ's still sticking to his story that it was 10K, not 100 bucks:
& since y’all want to believe a certain individual (who wasn’t there) who apparently contacted a McDonald’s “PR team” (who also wasn’t there) - this didn’t happen inside. He came through the drive-thru first & only came inside (with his security guards) to use the bathroom.

One of the employees (who I know since I visit that particular location often) turned to me as he and his security guards walked in (after going through the drive-thru) and whispered what just happened as the other female employee started crying hysterically in the back.
