Flavor Flav and Alexis Ohanian donate over $7K to Olympian struggling with rent payments

Flavor Flav came forward to provide financial assistance to a struggling US Olympian who was unable to pay her rent.

Veronica Fraley, who is set to take part in the women’s discus throw competition Friday, wrote via X Thursday, “I compete in the Olympic Games TOMORROW and can’t even pay my rent 😒

“my school only sent about 75% of my rent while they pay football players (who haven’t won anything 😂) enough to buy new cars and houses 👎🏾👎🏾👎🏾”

Flav, 65, then wrote in the thread of the post, “I gotchu,,, DM me and I’ll send payment TODAY so you don’t have to worry bout it TOMORROW,,, and imma be rooting for ya tomorrow LETZ GO,!!!”

Public Enemy member William Jonathan Drayton, Jr., known as Flavor Flav, posted on X to demonstrate that he is a "man of [his] word."

The “Fight the Power” rapper shared a screenshot of a message he sent Fraley, 24, and wrote alongside it, “Imma try and come by and support you in person tomorrow ,,, LMK what time.”

Flav has emerged as one of the unsung heroes of the 2024 Olympics by sponsoring the US women’s water polo team.

“One thing about me, I know what it feels like to want to see a dream come true,” the former “Flavor of Love” star recently said.

“I know what it feels like to want to achieve a goal, and I’m the type of person that, if I see you trying, then I’m going to do whatever I can to help you.”

In addition to Flav, Alexis Ohanian demonstrated his philanthropic spirit by also donating to Fraley.
