Dear Matthew Kahn :
When it comes to rapper and reality-TV star Flavor Flav, always expect the unexpected! This is exactly what passengers discovered recently when Flavor Flav took over the PA system on three inbound flights to Las Vegas to remind everyone to visit his House of Flavor restaurant while in Vegas for some of the best specialty recipe soul food (and fixins’) ever!
Please read the following press release and let me know if I may schedule an interview with this always-entertaining celebrity who knows how to fire up an audience. Thank you.

Flavor Flav ‘Hijacks’ Two More Airplane Intercoms This Week To Plug His Las Vegas Restaurant
Las Vegas, NV, July 20, 2012 - Passengers on a total of three recent inbound flights to Las Vegas from Burbank, Phoenix and New York, received a pleasant surprise when the voice of Flavor Flav came over the PA system to tell them he knew just where they could grab some great tasting food while in Vegas.
