Flavor Flav claims he was kicked out of Backstreet Boys' dressing room at Rockefeller tree lighting. The hip-hop icon has alleged that NBC had him removed from the boy band's dressing room at the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting in New York City on Wednesday night. In a now-deleted post on X, Flavor wrote: ”I feel weird ... I was invited to the Rockefeller Tree Lighting tonite and I was escorted to see my boys ... THE BACKSTREET BOYS ... and we were backstage in their dressing room ... security came up tp me and says @nbc does not want me in this area and I need to leave (sic).” "At the same time ... their social media woman came up and asked me to capture social content. What did I ever do to NBC or anyone??” "All I ever do is try to spread joy and love ... and I think I did that for NBC at the Olympics.” Flavor later deleted the tweet, but shared in a new post, "I deleted the tweet ... but my spirit is broken.” The Public Enemy star also returned to the platform to share a clip of him at the tree lighting event, with the caption: ”Christmas in the city ... ain't nothing like the Rockefeller tree lighting.” The Backstreet Boys joined host Kelly Clarkson at the tree lighting, performing a rendition of Nat King Cole's classic hit The Christmas Song (Merry Christmas to You). Other musical guests included Jennifer Hudson, Raye and Little Big Town.
