Courtesy of Flavor Flav's SHE Weekend If you’ve been in need of hearing about some good in the world, look no further than Flavor Flav’s SHE Weekend , a four-day celebration of the accomplishments of female athletes during the 2026 Winter Olympics. Hip-hop legend and Public Enemy rapper, Flavor Flav , came forward to give female Olympians and Paralympians the celebration they deserved and JustJared.com was there to experience it all. For those who don’t know, Flav has been championing women’s sports for years. Back in 2024, he became the sponsor of the U.S. Women’s Water Polo Team after learning that they weren’t fully funded for their trip to the summer Olympics. His passion for supporting female athletes continued this year, when he sponsored the Bobsled and Skeleton teams at the winter Olympics. After the U.S. Women’s Hockey Team won a gold medal and turned down a backhanded invite to the White House, Flav tweeted them a better invite. In his original post, he wrote, “If the USA Women’s Hockey team wants a real celebration and invite ,,, I’ll host them in Las Vegas. Do some nice dinners and shows and good times. I’m sure I can get a hotel and airline to help me out here and celebrate these women for real for real.” Well, in true Flavor Flav fashion, he upped the ante and invited all of the medal-winning female Olympians and Paralympians from the Winter Olympics, plus any of their male partners, as well as the Bobsled and Skeleton athletes he sponsored! SHE Weekend was put together in just a few months with help from Flav ‘s manager Rhiannon Rae Ellis , the incredible team of women working with her, sponsors like MGM Resorts, Delta Airlines, Dove, Signal, Invisalign, Gatorade, and Flav ‘s longtime partners Planet Fitness and Lotto, as well brand agency 72andSunny, and production company Joe Lewis Company. The celebration began with Flavor Flav lighting the iconic “Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas” sign in pink lights on the morning of Wednesday, July 15, signifying the start of SHE Weekend. @delta started Flavor Flav’s SHE Weekend off right ?? ? How You Like Me Now – The Heavy The next morning, Flav took a flight from Las Vegas to Salt Lake City, Utah to meet up with the athletes, who all flew to one place so they could arrive in Vegas at the same time. Delta Air Lines stepped in as the official airline of the event, surprising the athletes with a red-carpet gate take over in Salt Lake City and a dirty soda bar to enjoy before the flight. The flight was captained by an all-female cockpit and staffed by an all-female flight attendant crew. @justjared Flavor Flav arrives at the Park MGM hotel in Las Vegas with the Olympians and Paralympians as they prepare for a parade down the Las Vegas strip for the launch of SHE Weekend.
