Add BollywoodShaadis on GoogleOnlyFans model Pinkchyu has shot to overnight fame after winning Canadian rapper Drake's speed dating show, 20-v-1. Pinkchyu, whose real name is Lin Lamar, is a prominent cosplayer and content creator who, as of August 2026, has gone viral as the ultimate 'goth baddie'. Recently, her alleged pre-plastic surgery pics have emerged, leaving the internet divided. Besides her past unrecognizable look, her age gap with Drake has also become a major talking point.
Content creator Pinkchyu is currently all over the news due to her interaction with Drake and her defeating Adam22's wife, Lena the Plug, to win the speed dating show, 20-v-1. Pinkchyu won Drake's heart and even got him to agree to bark for her if they role-played. As the goth beauty stole the rapper's heart and got a million-dollar house from him for her mother, many wondered if Pinkchyu and Drake would date for real. It also made them look up the duo's age gap.
Many think that Drake and Pinkchyu have a massive age difference; well, to break it to you, the gap is indeed over a decade. Drake was born on October 24, 1986, and will turn 40 in 2026, while Pinkchyu was born on September 17, 2002, and will turn 24 in 2026. That makes her 16 years younger than him, which is considered quite a big age gap among the general public. However, in the world of global stars, an age difference of two or more decades between partners has become quite normal these days.
As Drake and Pinkchyu's age gap came to light, some found it to be a common practice among celebrities, while others raised eyebrows. Users on X (formerly Twitter) were divided in this matter. Many slammed Drake for his alleged preference for much younger partners, which brought back Kendrick Lamar's accusation that Drake dated minors through his diss track Not Like Us. "Kendrick did not lie about Drake. He likes them young," an X user wrote.
Another stated that Drake "is a creep." A third one compared the Canadian rapper with the infamous Jeffrey Epstein and commented, "Getting with Drake is like getting with Epstein atp, what is wrong with her." Notably, it remains unclear whether Drake and Pinkchyu will pursue a relationship in reality or whether their pairing ended with the end of the dating show.
Pinkchyu has now acquired the title of 'goth baddie' with her looks, bold makeup, and aesthetic. However, she didn't always have the same style and overall vibe. Some X users dug up her old photos, where she looks very different from her current appearance and appears almost unrecognizable. In the revisited pics, Pinkchyu can be seen with curly hair and a fuller face compared to her current look, which includes straight hair with bangs and sharper facial features.
In her old photos, Pinkchyu can be seen in her streamer avatar with clean-girl makeup, including nude lips and pink blush. However, her current signature gothic style features bold black lipstick, heavy winged liner, and false lashes. As Pinkchyu's before-and-after pics went viral on X (formerly Twitter), many claimed that she went under the knife to change not just her look but her entire personality. Others defended her, saying she just had a glow-up and changed her style.
One of them commented, "Isn't this normally just called a glow up. Pretty common no?" Another X user wrote, "Are people actually going to bully her over how she looked before? Ya know not every emo/goth kid had the financial stability to buy all the cool goth clothes. So now that they can work and make money why wouldn't you buy the outfits you always wanted as a kid?"
