Flipboard Culture Desk<p>Flavor Flav garnered headlines last week for his sponsorship of the U.S. women's water polo team, and now he's helping out track and field athlete Veronica Fraley. Fraley, a discus thrower and student at Vanderbilt University, wrote on X that in spite of representing her country in her sport, she's unable to pay rent, while her school will "pay football players (who haven’t won anything 😂) enough to buy new cars and houses." The Public Enemy rapper immediately sent her money, as did Reddit co-founder/Mr. Serena Williams Alexis Ohanian. Flav later confirmed that Fraley's rent has been covered for the year. Here's more from People.</p><p><a href="https://flip.it/wcShQo" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">flip.it/wcShQo</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Olympics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Olympics</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/FlavorFlav" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FlavorFlav</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Sports" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sports</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Discus" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Discus</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/AlexisOhanian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AlexisOhanian</span></a> <a href="https://flipboard.social/tags/Celebrity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Celebrity</span></a></p>
