Flavor Flav gets his own mobile game

Cor, Flavor Flav's going mobile!

What's that? Who's Flavor Flav? For shame. You know - he was a core member of Public Enemy, one of the most groundbreaking hip-hop acts of all-time.

No? Oh, c'mon. He was involved in seminal tracks like Fight the Power, Don't Believe the Hype, 911 (is a Joke), and Black Steel in the Hour of Chaos.

Still baffled? Alright, he's the mad bloke with the gold teeth and neck-clock in those TV reality shows, pictured above in situ. There you go.

Okay, so Flav's credibility has perhaps diminished as his celebrity has increased, but that celebrity has led IG Fun to snap up the mobile game rights to his The Flavor of Love VH1 show.

The game sees you taking on a series of challenges - including pie fights, sky writing (?) and watergun battles - in order to win Flav's heart.

(We think it's aimed at women, and gay men with a thing for big clocks).

The Flavor of Love is due out later this month.
