Drake Explains How The Backstreet Boys Changed His Life

The Backstreet Boys have had a big impact on Drake's life.

He paid some of that back by joining them during their show last night in Toronto.

Drake helped the legendary boy band perform their biggest hit "I Want It That Way."

Before doing so, he explained how his life was changed when a girl he liked and had previously ignored him ask him to dance during his Bar Mitzvah to "I Want It That Way."

"It's the first time a felt acknowledged.  It's the first time I ever thought I could be cool.  And the song she wanted me to dance to is one of the greatest songs of all time," he said the boy band's hit.
