In the midst of Drake discussing his plans for a film and television takeover in The Hollywood Reporter, an interesting nugget of information was dropped: Drake is apparently a huge Harry Potter fanatic.

He's such a stan, he might (or might have already) treat himself to a $160,000 first edition of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone—a copy he's been trying to hunt down for four years now.

Read the revelations, per Tatiana Siegel's article for THR, below:

"Yeah, I read them all," he says of J.K. Rowling's series, two tiny diamonds glinting from his front teeth as he breaks into a wide smile. I tell him I'm reading the series to my kids, and he immediately peppers me with questions, "What book are you on?" "Goblet of Fire," I respond. "What part?" Then, as if to talk himself into the purchase, he says: "I should get it. My birthday's coming up. Maybe I'll buy it for myself as a treat."

His birthday has passed and whether or not he's bought the book is still unknown but regardless, he's definitely a Slytherin right?
