Alex Trebek started from the bottom, now he's here -- forcing you to answer in the form of a question.

A Jeopardy contestant took "Musical Acts" for $400 on Wednesday night, which forced Trebek to go from zero to 100 real quick, singing Drake's hit single "Jumpman" featuring fellow rapper Future.

The internet noticed.

Hopefully this will convince the 76-year-old Jeopardy host to join Drizzy's really big team.

What a time to be alive.
