Legendary rapper Flavor Flav is now officially the new hype man for the USA Water Polo Women's and Men's National Teams. He has signed a five-year sponsorship deal that includes multiple poolside appearances at competitions, social media collaboration, and he is making a financial contribution to the 2024 Women's Water Polo Olympic Team.
Back in May, Flavor Flav answered the call by U.S. women's water polo team captain Maggie Steffens to support the team ahead of its attempt at an unprecedented fourth consecutive gold medal at the Paris Olympics this summer.
"These women are out here busting their butts, making the United States look good, chasing gold," Flavor Flav said on "CBS Mornings" on Monday. "They've won three back-to-back gold medals. My manager showed me their story, and my heart went out to these hardworking women."
