Flavor Flav has straightforward message as he admits he didn't receive invite to Taylor Swift's wedding

Flavor Flav has got a nickname tied to his massive support for Swift

Flavor Flav is a massive Taylor Swift fan and has a message after admitting to not getting an invite to her upcoming wedding.

Taylor Swift’s announcement that she is set to marry her boyfriend Kansas City Chiefs player Travis Kelce came as a welcomed surprise by many of her fans.

One individual who was overjoyed for the couple was Public Enemy rapper Flavor Flav, who has long been a supporter of Swift.

Amongst her fans, he has even earned the title, King Swiftie, a nickname he has embraced with open arms.

Earlier this year, the 66-year-old Flav, real name William Jonathan Drayton Jr., even performed Swift’s song Bad Blood while on The Masked Singer.

Speaking to People following the performance in March, he spoke about their friendship and called her ‘one of the most important artists of our time'.

Speaking to the outlet, he said: “I always go hard for Taylor Swift. The Swifties, they know how hard I go in for Taylor Swift.

“The Swifties gave me a brand new name called King Swiftie. So I'm King Swiftie. I'm king of all the Swifties, and Taylor, she knows that too. I love her. I love her work. She's one of the most important artists of our time. I don't know no other musical artists that can throw a concert, and it hits the Richter scale. She causes earthquakes.”

Despite his appreciation for Swift, he has explained that he wasn’t invited to her wedding and it didn’t come as a surprise.

Speaking with People, Flav said: “No, I didn't get an invite to the wedding. I ain't expect one. You know what I'm saying? The whole nine.

“But they know they got my blessings and if she invites me, you dig? All right. I'm going. King Swiftie going to be at the wedding.”

He is at least optimistic about that possibility and who knows when it comes to Swift.

Hilariously, the rapper could still find himself at the wedding without getting an official invite.

Less than a month after the news broke the couple were getting married, Flav told People he was working on getting ordained on the off chance the pair wanted him to officiate their wedding.

At the time, he said: “I'm very happy for her too. You know what I'm saying? Not only that, but she's about to hopefully one day get married.

“And if she does, hopefully if I have my license in time, I want to be the one officiating the wedding.”
