Flavor Flav is ready to meet Simone Biles! ET’s Nischelle Turner spoke to the 65-year-old rapper ahead of the 2024 Olympic Games, and he revealed that he’s most excited to meet the gymnast while in Paris for the global event.
“She’s my favorite athlete right now. She’s going for her ninth medal, man. Come on! That is phenomenal. That is slamming,” he gushed to ET. “I just want to meet her, and tell her how proud I am of her, and how much of a big fan that I am of hers.”
Whether or not he meets Biles, Flav is in awe that he gets to be there in person to watch the Games unfold.
“Man, I’m feeling like I’m living the greatest moment of my life right now. I’m feeling amazing right now. It’s a very wonderful experience that I’m living right now,” he said. “For the first time ever I get to be at the Olympics in person instead of just seeing it on TV.”
“Words right now can’t even explain how amazing it is. I’m living a dream come true right now,” Flav added. “I always dreamed about being at the Olympics one day, watching it and seeing it in person. Right now God has granted me the gift to where I’m able to be here and see it.”
Flav is on hand for the Games to serve as the official hype man of the American women’s water polo team.
“My duties are to hype up the water polo team, mainly the women’s water polo team,” he shared. “They’ve got three gold medals right now, so we’re pushing for them to get that fourth one. My duties are to be in the crowd and be loud and when I get that medal be proud.”
Back in May, the rapper, who’s a noted Swiftie, made the U.S. team’s wildest dreams come true by helping them secure tickets to Taylor Swift‘s Paris stop on her Eras Tour.
“I’m quite sure that the team really enjoyed that show,” Flav told ET, adding that he planned to get the official run down from the women when he meets up with them this weekend.
Flav himself recently took in the Eras Tour in Hamburg, Germany, and even earned an onstage shout out from the singer.
“Man, I ain’t gonna lie. Every show that I go to of hers is just like seeing it for the first time. She rips it. She does her thing, man,” he praised. “… That’s what they call me King Swiftie. I ain’t mad. I’ll take the title. I’ll wear the hat well.”
