It’s time for the tale of the King of Bling, Flavor Flav, and his epic adventure as the ultimate “King Swiftie.” That’s right, the hip-hop icon and walking clock display took a break from his duties as the keeper of time to rock out at another one of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour shows. And where did this all go down? In the glamorous, schnitzel-filled city of Hamburg, Germany, because when you’re Flavor Flav, you don’t just go to a concert—you go international!
Picture this: It’s Tuesday, July 23, and our hero, Flav, is gliding into Hamburg like a golden-wrapped Willy Wonka. Why? Because he’s on a mission to catch some T-Swift magic before the 2024 Paris Olympics. But wait, there’s more! Not only is he attending the show, but he’s also about to experience one of those legendary rain shows. You know, the kind where Taylor and her legion of fans get a free shower from the heavens. Talk about a splash zone!
Flav, always the VIP, was chilling in one of those swanky boxes right on the floor. That’s right, while everyone else was doing the soggy sock shuffle, Flav was enjoying prime seating with a view better than a giraffe in a hot air balloon.
As the concert came to a crescendo, Taylor, with the keen eyes of an eagle, spotted our clock-wearing crusader in his luxurious perch. And what did she do? She gave him a shout-out from the stage, of course! Picture Taylor, drenched but dazzling, pointing and shouting, “FLAVOR FLAV!” with the excitement of a kid finding a golden ticket.
Naturally, Flav did what any self-respecting hype man would do: he tweeted the heck out of that moment. “It’s the guy from Public Enemy, also known as KING SWIFTIE, Coming straight to Germany to see me,!!! Shout out back to @taylorswift13 @taylornation13 and her team and family for having me,!!! 🫶🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾,” he wrote, probably while wearing a crown made of backstage passes.
The saga of Flavor Flav, the King Swiftie, who braved international flights, torrential rain, and perhaps a bratwurst or two, all for the love of T-Swift. Watch the video below and witness the legend in action!
