Flavor Flav has clarified his recent comments about Chappell Roan, saying in a tweet that “we all have her back and stand up with her”.Earlier this week, the Public Enemy member and hip-hop figure appeared on TMZ‘s year-end television special, Merry Elfin’ Christmas, to discuss the 2024 headlines that most stood out.When asked about the former NME Cover artist’s recent stance against the “predatory behaviour” of so-called “superfans”, Flav opined that her statements were “one of the biggest mistakes she can make because it’s all of the people that make her who she is to society”.Yesterday (December 4), in a brief X/Twitter thread, Flav clarified his comments, saying that his initial statement was made “with the limited info I was given”.“I was asked about Chappell Roan and was told that she was rude to fans,” Flav tweeted. “I don’t really know her or the situation and said that it’s a mistake because it’s the fans that make us who we are.

BUT,,, if individuals are threatening her privacy or boundaries,,, good for her to speak up,!!”The media still creating clickbait headlines,,, With the limited info I was given,,, I stand by what I said,,, the fans make us.

But these ain’t fans. Predatory and stalking behavior and disrespect ain’t cool and she stood up for herself and we all have her back and stand up… https://t.co/EFMDrAk8en pic.twitter.com/ImHZqNz7sr— FLAVOR FLAV (@FlavorFlav) December 4, 2024In a follow-up tweet he made in response to “the media still creating clickbait headlines”, Flav wrote that “predatory and stalking behavior and disrespect ain’t cool”.“She stood up for herself and we all have her back and stand up with her,” he continued.
