Bobbi Althoff has deleted her Drake interview and they’ve unfollowed each other
Bobbi Althoff has deleted her viral interview with Drake, with the pair also unfollowing each other on social media.
Podcaster Althoff suddenly shot to fame in recent weeks after a series of celebrity interviews, most notably with Canadian rapper Drake.
The rapper is not particularly known for giving much away in interviews aside from promoting his newest albums and singles.
However, Althoff managed to bag an interview with him, something that quickly went viral on the internet.

Podcast interviews with Althoff are pretty far removed from what you might expect from a news or magazine interview. Gone are the formalities about influences, careers, and early life. In fact, Althoff even interviewed Drake while the pair were in bed and enjoying a nice beverage. Pretty standard, right?
The podcast which Drake featured on is plainly titled The Really Good Podcast, and the interview with the rapper propelled it into the digital stratosphere, racking up an astonishing 29 million views on TikTok alone with just one video.
The interview would have been far from what Drake was used to, with Althoff asking some unconventional questions, to say the least.
In her interview, she said she'd never heard of his songs, and asked him to buy her a flight home after the interview.
Despite the success of the podcast, eagle-eyed fans have spotted the pair have unfollowed each other on social media, while Althoff has removed the interview from her channel.
An audio version of it has also been removed from Spotify, leading to fans speculation the pair may have some beef.
Taking to social media, fans pointed out a video of the podcast host looking less than impressed at a Drake concert - perhaps leading into the fact the pair are not on the best of terms.
"This explains why she unfollowed him," one person wrote on Twitter.
Neither party has addressed the situation as of yet.
It comes after many accused Althoff of being an industry plant, which she has denied, having since explained how she got the rapper on her show.
Following the success of an interview with comedian Funny Marco, she saw that Drake had liked the video and then followed her.
She told Cosmopolitan: "I decided to just go for it and shoot my shot. I DM'ed Drake and asked if he wanted to be on my podcast, and he said yes.
"He sent me his touring schedule, and I knew that I needed to make it happen fast, so my friend and I flew to Memphis two days after the original DM was sent to record the episode."
UNILAD has reached out to Althoff's and Drake's reps for comment.
