Since appearing on Vh1‘s season of The Surreal Life almost four years ago, Public Enemy rapper and hype-man Flavor Flav has become a media darling like it was 1989 all over again. After catch-phrases and antics led to countless proverbial water-cooler discussions, the now 48 year-old was given his own show, Flavor of Love – after the short-lived Strange Love, documentary of his and actress Brigitte Nielsen‘s love affair.
Based off of Flavor‘s pursuit of a partner, the Bachelor-like show featured various would-be celebrities such as Hoopz and New York (who would get her own show to boot). After a botched relationship with Hoopz in season one, an expanded, but equally fruitless relationship with Deelishis in season two, the antics are confirmed for a third season. The show will feature another 20 contestants, as well as a rumored season finale in Paris. The new season begins on February 11 at 9 p.m. est.
