After coming off of
the highly successful and criticized VH1 show “Strange Love,” Public
Enemy’s Flavor Flav is set to star a long side an eclectic group of celebrity
contestants on the UK reality series “The Farm.”
The show features celebrity farmhands who will face the harsh
realities of life on the farm under the expert guidance of vet Jon Huxley, farmer
Ryan Hooper and his brother, Jason.
The farmhands will have to contend with the daily routine of
mucking out and feeding the animals. But they’ll also have to pass group tasks
in order to win treats, be completely self-sufficient and vote for the farmhand
they want to put to the public vote for elimination.
Flavor will be joined along side Emma Noble (former host of
The Price Is Right, “Truth About Love), Cicciolina (former p### star-turned-
politician), Emma B (model), Dave Morgan (fireman), Lionel Blair (actor), Mikey
Green (aspiring pop singer), Charlene Tilton (“Dallas”), Ron Jeremy
(p### star) and Orville (comedian).
In addition to an upcoming reality show, he also is plannning
on releasing a solo album.
"The world has been waiting for it for a long time,"
Flav recently told the Associated Press. "My album is not like everybody
else’s rap album. It’s hitting all age ranges, from kids to grandmothers.
Although critics and fans of Public Enemy alike both shunned
the Strange Love series, Flav insists that he doesn’t regret the experience.
"I’ve got
more people to love,” Flav said. “It was one of my dreams: getting
on TV. It gave me a new wide range of audience so that’s more people to be good
to."
