That's like roasting a developmentally disabled homeless person.
Sure you'll get some cheap laughs, but what's the point?
Flav has clowned himself better in recent years than any panel of comedians could hope to clown him.
Wasn't this something once reserved for folks in the twilight of their career. Oh wait...
i don't think this is an act.
i mean the vh1 reality show flavor flav act.
don't hatt on my girl. SHE NASTAY.
