Ne-Yo Spends $5,000 on Drake’s Former Flame at Atlanta Strip Club

Ne-Yo hit the strip club this week, spending more than the average person's monthly earnings on some barely covered, curvaceous ladies. One of the strippers working the pole at Atlanta's popular Diamonds gentleman's establishment was Drake's former flame Maliah Michel -- you know, the one he raps about in "Miss Me": "Someone tell Maliah I'm on fire she should work tonight."

TMZ reports that the R&B crooner dropped more than $5,000 on Michel, and even has the photos to prove it. From the image provided, the exotic dancer, who sports an all-white ensemble -- fishnet stockings included -- has her legs propped in the air as Ne-Yo is caught looking at her assets.

However, the R.E.D. album creator was just enjoying himself and headed home after his night out. After all, he's got two kids waiting for him.
