The Canadian-born rapper cut off his beard because he’s hosting Saturday Night Live this week, and apparently NBC is in the business of heart-breaking.

Drake posted a now-deleted photo of him sans-beard on Instagram. He was likely unprepared to commit to the world with this truth but these screenshots were.

The most important question posed on this day.

Why you always gotta play with our hearts, Aubrey?

All we ever did was try to love you.

Even the men are angry.

Farewell Champagne Papi, you’ll always be in our hearts.

BRB… these tears won’t stop flowing.
