The American stealing the show at the Paris Olympics is Flavor Flav. The 65-year-old performer, whose real name is William Jonathan Drayton Jr., has been a fixture at the 2024 games thanks to his partnership with USA Water Polo. The Public Enemy rapper has embraced his new role as "official hype man" of the women's team, appearing poolside at the team's matches wearing a water polo cap and Team USA branded waterproof clock necklace. "By sponsoring a water polo team and helping these girls out, this is bigger than me winning a Grammy." In a comment on the post, Flavor Flav committed his support to the team that has won gold for the past three Olympics.
