Lin Lamar, Drake's 'Goth Baddie' that recently won the Canadian superstar's 20-woman dating show, has been making headlines recently, but it's not her first time in the spotlight.
Now, internet sleuths have dug up an item from Lamar's past.
It turns out that once, Lamar actually took her ex-boyfriend to court... and walked away winning the whole thing.
But what's the full story? Find out below.
Lamar, who's also known by the pseudonym Pinkchyu online, was previously in a relationship with fellow internet content creator Tectone, real name John Robert Robertson, who came to fame streaming video games on sites like YouTube and Twitch.
It was reported by the Times of India that Lamar filed a civil protective order case against her ex-boyfriend in Travis County, Texas.
A civil protective order, issued in court, aims to protect victims of domestic violence, sexual assault or stalking without requiring a previous criminal charge. If a CPO is granted, rules are put in place, such as no-contact orders, court-mandated stay-away distances and eviction if the restrained party shares a home with the filer.
Tectone publicly acknowledged in February 2026 that he had lost the CPO case and one had been issued on him.
He did stress, however, that this was a civil proceeding and not a criminal conviction.
The judge in the case ruled in Lamar's favor after a length hearing on January 23, which lasted seven hours and included "multiple" forms of evidence, such as text and audio messages provided by Lamar.
As part of the ruling, the judge granted Lamar a 10-year protective order against Tectone.
Now, he is banned from contacting her and must stay at least 200 yards from her home and workplace.
Tectone also had firearm restrictions enforced, an order to delete certain online content and to pay Lamar's legal fees.
Lamar is now moving on from the civil case. As the winner of Drake's 20 woman dating contestant, she's exploded in popularity online.
In one specific highlight of her interaction with the Canadian superstar, Lamar makes the Nice For What chart-topper bark like a dog for her (literally).
Lamar came to fame thanks to her social media content, which is focused on goth aesthetic and cosplay of anime characters. She's also a content creator on subscription site OnlyFans.

The self-styled "Goth Baddie" who won Drake's viral dating challenge has spoken out for the first time about nabbing the Canadian superstar.
Lin Lamar was one of 20 women who took part in a livestream video "20 v 1." where 20 different female contestants took part in a competitive speed dating game with Drake.
Despite other challengers' best efforts, including OnlyFans creator Lily Phillips, Lamar was ultimately victorious and won the whole thing.
Now, she's speaking out for the first time.
After her win in the viral video, Lamar posted a video of her time in the competition, specifically her first one-on-one date with Drizzy.
In the clip, which has lit up social media, Drake says he would do anything that Lamar told him to.
With full conviction, the One Dance hitmaker says: "You can look me dead in my eye, if you say do it, I would do it."
Slightly taken aback, Lamar then asks him to bark for her.
Drake responds to the request, barking and panting like a dog, sending Lamar into a fit of laughter.
And her response to Drake barking? "Good boy!" sounds about right.
Captioning the video of their interaction, Lamar said "I think I broke Drake lol."
Fans are seeming to lap up the chemistry between Drake and the girl he's deemed his "Goth Baddie."
Commenting on the video of their interaction, one viewer said: "I love the way he looks at you."
Another added: "Girl I'm obsessed [with] you. That was so hot."
One viewer, however, seemed put off by the whole enterprise, writing: "Drake is rich and famous, and getting him to bark is diabolical. I'm not rich nor famous, and I still wouldn't do that."
There's been no public comment from Drake or Lamar as to the current status of their relationship together, but that hasn't stopped clips from their interactions on the livestream going viral.
One person that wasn't too happy about this, however, must be Lily Phillips. The British content creator rose to fame with boundary-pushing, controversial posts on the site OnlyFans and was one of the competitors trying to win a date from Drizzy during the livestream.
However, she walked away empty-handed, especially as she didn't seem to really connect with Drake on their filmed date.
In fact, Drake seemed pretty happy ribbing Phillips for her appearance, noticing her dark spray tan and saying she must be on "peptides" to "[try] and get my colour."

Drake has gone viral over the weekend, but it wasn't for his music.
The Canadian artist participated in a dating challenge that garnered hundreds of millions of views in clips and videos across social media platforms.
He was the subject of a '20 v 1' livestream video, where a contestant is faced with 20 different potential partners as part of a speed dating process.
The 'Hotline Bling' rapper had to choose between 20 female contestants as part of the competitive speed dating game.
While some adult stars made appearances such as Lily Phillips and Lena the Plug, it would be online personality Lin Lamar who would come out on top.
Now known as the 'Goth Baddie' online, Lamar has responded to the increased attention online with a post about her appearance with Drake.
Lamar spoke out on X, reposting a viral post about her winning the challenge, which read: "Drake really manifested this, he finally found his goth baddie."
The post included a snap of Drake and Lamar, alongside an old podcast clip of the rapper admitting that goths were his type.
She posted her own image in a repost of the original, writing: "Can you blame him for being into nerdy goth girls like me," accompanied with a black heart.
The photo of her was a revealing one, as she could be seen showing off a black bra and black underwear, lifting her shirt while looking at the camera, as the post garnered over 929,000 views.
In the show, Drake said he'd buy the 'goth baddie' a house, and even barked for her in a bizarre moment.
With over 781,000 followers, it's fair to say that she already had a mass following going into the video, but there's no doubt that she has gained a few since.

Fans seem to love the chemistry between Drake and Lamar, who connected the most with the rapper - one contestant who didn't was OnlyFans star Lily Phillips.
The Brit, who is best known for her crude sex challenges, was one of the competitors trying to win a date from Drizzy during the livestream.
But she walked away empty-handed after failing to connect with Drake on their filmed date.
In fact, Drake seemed pretty happy making fun of Phillips for her appearance, pointing out her dark spray tan and joking that she must be on 'peptides' to '[try] and get my color.'
Ouch.

The winner of Drake's 20 v 1 dating challenge has gone viral just days after the video's release, after old photos of her resurfaced.
Known internet-wide as the 'Goth Baddie' who stole the rapper's heart, she was just one of 20 different potential partners as part of a speed dating process involving Drake as the subject.
The dating challenge unsurprisingly garnered hundreds of millions of views in clips and videos across social media platforms.
As part of the '20 v 1' livestream video, the Canadian artist met some adult stars such as Lily Phillips and Lena the Plug, but it would be OnlyFans creator Lin Lamar who would come out on top.
Known online as Pinkchyu, the social media influencer has spoken out several times about her appearance in the video, even posting a revealing photo for newer followers.
Now, it's older snaps of her which are doing the rounds.
While the creator got Drake to bark for her in a bizarre moment, her viral fame continued to shock fans as older snaps of Lamar circulated.
She is now known for her intense goth look, but there was a time when the creator would stream looking less like she was cosplaying a character.
It isn't known if the creator underwent any cosmetic procedures to achieve her new look, but her new hair, make-up and dress sense make her almost unrecognizable.
One of the years-old snaps shows the influencer on a stream with short, curly, brown hair and a choker, with pink blush on her cheeks.
A different photo showed the streamer in a graphic tee as well as a backwards baseball hat, where she appears a lot younger.
Over the years, Lamar has built up a following of hundreds of thousands across her platforms, so it's fair to say that she already had an online presence before the 20 v 1.
Clips of some of her old streams have also started to surface, including one where she is cosplaying Shego from Kim Possible, back in 2023.
The video is captioned, "Here she is on Twitch back in 2023. Cosplaying as Shego. She hasn't changed all that much!
"I think she is doing great these days! I doubt she even needs Drake's money! Look at her socials."
Lamar spoke out on X, reposting a viral post about her winning the challenge, which read: "Drake really manifested this, he finally found his goth baddie."
The post included a snap of Drake and Lamar, alongside an old podcast clip of the rapper admitting that goths were his type.

There's been a lot of speculation about the 'Goth Baddie' who won Drake's 20-woman dating contest.
The viral video has lit up social media - but just who is the woman many have deemed the 'Goth Baddie?'
Drizzy was the main attraction of the new livestream video, where 20 women competed to win a date with him.
From that initial 20, it was whittled down to three finalists. The entire thing was won by Pinkchyu, a content creator whose real name is Lin Lamar, but just who is she?
And did she really make Drake bark like a dog?
The 'Goth Baddie' lighting up the internet right now is a content creator and OnlyFans model who goes by the moniker Pinkchyu.
Her real name is Lin Lamar, and it was pretty clear that she was going to win when Drake - one of the most famous musicians on the planet - told her plainly he would buy her anything on the planet.
After making him bark like a dog (more on that later), she decided that he would buy a house for her retired mom.
Lamar's entire online aesthetic is based around her goth vibe; it's her signature calling card, and is present throughout her whole social media.
She's also known to incorporate her goth persona into cosplay, where she'll dress up as mainly anime-based characters such as Team Rocket from Pokémon and Frieren.
Laman is also an OnlyFans creator. Her bio for the subscription site reads: "Here to give you the best waifu experience."
Waifu is an English loanword from Japanese and basically just means a fictional female character, but most notably those featured in anime shows and movies.
During her participation in Drake's 20-woman dating contest, one part of her interaction with the superstar rapper caught the attention of fans on the internet.
During their initial interaction, Drake, already clearly enamoured with Lamar, tells her that 'you can look me dead in my eye, if you say do it, I would do it.'
Lamar, clearly game, tells Drake that she wants him to bark for her.
Drake responds to the request, barking and panting like a dog, sending Lamar into a fit of laughter.
So, there you have it - you'd have to imagine that she'll be getting all sorts of offers now.
She's certainly done her own personal brand no harm.

Drake has hilariously hit back at a woman who claimed that he was staring at her in a viral Instagram video.
The Canadian artist has been among the headlines following his part in a 20 v 1 dating challenge which went viral over the weekend.
The rapper was made to choose just one of 20 different potential partners as part of a speed-dating process.
In the end, he chose a 'Goth Baddie', who even made him bark in one of the video's later rounds, with clips of the video racking in hundreds of millions of views in clips across platforms.
Drake met several adult stars such as Lily Phillips and Lena the Plug, but it would be OnlyFans creator and influencer Lin Lamar who emerged victorious.
Known online as Pinkchyu, the social media influencer has spoken out several times about her appearance in the video.
Now, a woman who barely featured in the video has gone viral for a claim about Drake.
Hayden Pierce is an adult content creator and posted about the 20 v 1 by putting a video up of her posing for the camera.
In the background, Drake can be seen looking at her lower half for a few seconds, as Pierce is distracted, looking directly at the camera.
She obviously noticed the 'God's Plan' artist seemingly enjoying the view from behind, posting the clip with the text, "Caught Drake in 4k," with an eyes emoji.
Pierce also captioned the video, "If he won’t look, Drake will," with a shrug emoji.
In hindsight, it may have felt like a power move at the time as one of the biggest artists in the world seemed to find her attractive.
However, he swiftly cleared his name in the comments.
The hip-hop artist didn't hold back with his reply, writing in the comments: "You walked out of the bathroom with toilet paper on your heel I was just thinking of the right time to tell you."
Absolutely brutal, even if it may not be true.
To rub salt in the wounds, the comment got over 131,000 likes, while the original post only managed 118,000.
Maybe Drake didn't like the fact that the video was all she posted with him, while other participants put up more wholesome snaps taken with the artist, or clips from the video itself.
The hysterical response also prompted thousands of other users from replying to his comment with an array of laughing emojis.
Real name Lin Lamar, she spoke out on X, reposting a viral post about her winning the challenge, which read: "Drake really manifested this, he finally found his goth baddie."
