NBA fans were surprised to see Flavor Flav gracing the stage to sing the National Anthem during a recent match, and social media users are chiming in with their thoughts!
Flav’s performance came during the match between the Milwaukee Bucks and Atlanta Hawks on Sunday (Oct. 29).
The nearly three-minute-long performance featured the Flavor of Love star gettin’ into his patriotic bag, and people watching from Milwaukee’s Fiserv Forum showered him in love.
Check out Flavor Flav’s rendition of the National Anthem below.
Once video footage of his performance went viral, people began chiming in on X (formerly known as Twitter).
First off, we have to acknowledge how one fan came thru and gave Flavor Flav his flowers. From giving him “3.75 out of 4 stars” to pointing out how he “stayed calm” and refrained from ad-libbing, she gave the rapper his props.
One user was so moved that they humorously declared, “Play this Flava Flav National Anthem at my funeral.”
On the other hand, some people expressed their confusion over the decision to book Flavor Flav in the first place.
While on the subject of celebrity National Anthem performances, people also said that Flavor Flav outdid other stars like Carl Lewis and Fergie.
Building off this point, another user added, “Flav did waaaaaay better than I expected.” He also pointed out that his ending was on point. IKTR!
As for what Flavor Flav had to say about the experience, he called it “a long time bucket list item.” After adding that the performance was “fun,” he powerfully declared, “I can’t live my life worried about what people might say about me.”
“I won’t let that stop me from trying new things and doing things I wanna do. Some people might not like that. But a sure failure is if you stop trying.”
Roomies, what’d you think of Flavor Flav’s performance?
