Flavor Flav Welcomes U.S. Women’s Olympic Hockey Team to Vegas After Trump’s Insulting Afterthought Invite: ‘Celebrate These Women For Real’

Editor’s note: This story has been updated with additional information about Flav’s invitation. Flavor Flav is a ride-or-die U.S. Women’s Olympic supporter. After President Donald Trump made a polarizing joke about the American women’s hockey team — which scored a gold medal earlier in February at the Winter Olympics — the Public Enemy hype man has invited the squad to party with him in Las Vegas.

Flav, who was also a huge supporter of the U.S. women at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, also extended his Sin City invite to the bobsled and skeleton teams , for whom he served as hype man during the just-concluded Milan Cortina Games. The invitation came after Trump disrespected the gold medal-winning team in a phone call with their male counterparts — who also won gold in their match in Milan, where, like the women, they beat Canada 2-1 in overtime — during which the president invited the men to attend his Tuesday (Feb.
