Rapper Drake has seemingly shaded his ex Serena Williams after going on a social media posting spree following his opp Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl halftime show performance.

The 'Not Like Us' rapper had Serena Williams dance the 'Crip Walk' in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameo, which shocked fans after the tennis player used to date Drake.

Taking to his finsta account, Drake issued a shady reaction to his ex-girlfriend Serenas Williams by sharing a picture of himself with Williams’ longtime agent Jill Smoller.

The photo was taken at Wimbledon in 2015 where the Toronto rapper was presented and cheered on his former fling.

Serena is yet to respond to Drizzy's post, but fans have had mixed responses to his finsta post.
