Flavor Flav Is Hosting A New Variety Show

Though he’s been keeping a fairly low profile for the past few years, Flavor Flav is looking to get back in the entertainment world, which he’s done successfully by announcing the development of his new Las Vegas-based variety show.

Named Flavor Flav’s Vegas, the program will feature the Public Enemy rapper interviewing celebrities, participating in comedy sketches and listening to the sweet sounds of some dope musical guests. Flav said about the upcoming show, “I always dreamed of being a variety show host, and I think it’s about time. And Las Vegas needs a talk show. I want to be the one to bring Vegas its first real live talk show. It won’t just be me interviewing guests, but also I’m going to have a variety of people coming through my show that are in movies, television, etc.”

The variety show seems to be in pretty good hans, as it will be directed by Leon Knowles–previously known for working on the Arsenio Hall Show, The Talk, Last Comic Standing and America’s Got Talent. Grammy-winning Teddy Riley will serve as the music director for the series.

This definitely isn’t the only trick Flav has up his sleeve, either. The rapper is joining an all-star cast for the augmented reality component to Master of the Sun – The Zombie Chronicles, a Marvel Comics graphic novel. The voice cast, in addition to Mr. Flav,  also features Stan Lee, Queen Latifah, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige and Rosario Dawson.
