'King Swiftie' Flavor Flav Gets Shout-Out From Taylor Swift From Stage in Hamburg

Flavor Flav attended Taylor Swift's first of two Eras Tour shows at Volksparkstadion in Hamburg, Germany, where he received another special shoutout from the pop icon.

On Tuesday, the "Fortnight" singer, who learned about Flavor Flav’s "King Swiftie" title after they spoke at the 2024 GRAMMYS, was seen mouthing "Flavor Flav" to her fellow musician as confetti fell around her during her performance. 

Sharing a clip of the moment on X (formerly Twitter), the 65-year-old rapper seemingly referenced Swift's "Karma" lyrics, writing, "It's the guy from Public Enemy... also known as KING SWIFTIE... Coming straight to Germany to see me,!!!"

"Shout out back to @taylorswift13 @taylornation13 and her team and family for having me,!!! #TSErasTour #HamburgTSTheErasTour," Flavor Flav added.

The longtime Swift fan previously attended the singer's Eras Tour stop in Detroit at Ford Field on June 9, 2023, donning multiple Swift friendship bracelets and an all-red outfit over a white T-shirt with the phrase "I Knew She Was Trouble" on it, referencing Swift's 2012 smash hit.

Swift previously gave Flavor Flav her guitar pick, and in December, the rapper told ET's Denny Directo that he is her no. 1 fan. He had the proof to back it up, showing off one of his friendship bracelets connected to the fandom. 

"So you heard about me being King Swiftie, huh?" Flav said, adding that his love of the "Bad Blood" singer and her music is "no joke." 

ET also asked him what it means to have been embraced by Swift's fans since he revealed his love for the pop icon. 

"The only thing I can say to the Swifties is: I just embrace y'all back and I just thank y'all for all the love that y'all give me," he said. "Y'all getting it back 10 fold."

Flav said in terms of his "King Swiftie" nickname, he is more than happy to have the new title and said it's a badge of honor he wears proudly. 

"Call me 'King Swiftie,' it's cool," he declared.
