The beef between Drake and Kendrick Lamar made the Oscar telecast last night.

"Well, we are halfway through the show," host Conan O'Brien quipped. "Which means it's time for Kendrick Lamar to come out and call Drake a pedophile."
He then added that he's "lawyered up."
Drake is currently suing Universal for defamation, arguing the label promoted Kendrick's slanderous "Not Like Us" diss through bots and payola.
Does Conan's joke on one of the biggest television nights of the year strengthened Drake's defamation case?
