    Flavor Flav is planning to launch a "bigger and better" reality TV show

    The 66-year-old rap star previously launched Flavor of Love, the reality TV dating game show, and the Fight the Power hitmaker has now revealed that he's busily working on another project.


    He told People: "I am getting ready to do another reality TV show, but it's going to be bigger than Flavor of Love.

    "It's not going to be a dating concept. The reason why is because I have already been there. I've done that. I set the tone for all other reality dating shows."

    Flav wants his new TV show to be bigger and better than anything he's done previously.

    He said: "I want to come back with something bigger and better and something that's going to have me lasting on TV longer. I got something in the works. I got something for you guys, and this is a show that I'll be able to do until my death."

    Meanwhile, in September, Flav revealed that he was "back on track" after briefly relapsing earlier in the year.

    The rap star confessed in April that he "briefly relapsed", having previously struggled with drug addiction.

    Speaking to People, Flav said in September: "Right now it's going very well. I'm back on point. I'm back on track. You know what I'm saying? And this is the way that I plan on staying for the rest of my life."

    The Public Enemy star also shared some advice with other people going through similar struggles.

    The rapper - who previously spent time at the Betty Ford Center in California - said: "If you take a fall, don't lay there and stay stuck. You got to get up off of that fall and you have to K-I-M - keep it moving.

    "Operation no choice is now in progress. Either you keep it moving, or you stay stuck. And the name of the game is to keep it moving."
