Flavor Flav invites US women's hockey team to Las Vegas for Olympic celebration after Trump snub

Team USA beat Team Canada to claim Gold in Men’s Hockey for the first time since 1980. Colin Cowherd asks how this win compares to that 1980 win over the Soviet Union and how America should feel about their team.

Hip-hop artist Flavor Flav wants to throw a party in Las Vegas for the United States women’s hockey team after winning Olympic gold over Canada in the 2026 Milan Cortina Games. 

And it appears he’s doing so after seeing President Donald Trump’s invitation to the team for his State of the Union address on Tuesday night, which the team declined as they cited "previously scheduled academic and professional commitments."

Flavor Flav, whose real name is Williams Jonathan Drayton Jr., shared the formal invitation that was sent to USA Hockey.

"I am reaching out on behalf of Flavor Flav. First, massive congratulations on the gold!!" the email he shared on X read. "We saw the story about the men’s invite to the White House, and the not quite invite for the women’s team. Flav recently posted on social media an idea and invite for the women’s hockey team to Las Vegas for a real celebration. He always stands behind everything he says and does. If there is an interest for the team to come to Las Vegas and celebrate with Flav – we will figure it out on our end and make it a lovely experience."

The "not quite invite" the email is likely referencing refers to Trump’s phone
