Famous rapper and reality television star Flavor Flav has made a touching offer to Team USA gymnast Jordan Chiles after she was forced to give back her Olympic bronze medal.
Flavor Flav has offered to make Chiles a bronze-necklace clock to replace the medal she won during the individual floor competition in Paris, but has subsequently been told she needs to return.
The controversy surrounding Chiles erupted on Saturday when the Court of Arbitration for Sport ruled she had been unjustly moved up from fifth place as the result of a United States injury.
The court claimed the American inquiry was lodged four seconds too late, therefore, Chiles scored should not have been raised and she should have not touched the podium.
USA gymnastics has filed an appeal of the decision, with an official timestamped statement showing the inquiry was made within the one-minute parameter.

Chiles was stripped of the medal five days after winning it, while the result of USA gymnastics' appeal is not yet known.
Many gymnastics fans have blasted the decision to strip Chiles of the medal over a minor detail, with the gymnast herself taking a break from social media due to the negative attention she has received over the last week.
'Ayyy YOOOO @ChilesJordan ,,, imma make you a BRONZE CLOCK NECKLACE,,, and that’s something NO ONE else has,!!! Hit me up my girl,,, I gotchu,!!!' Flavor Flav said on X.
Chiles won a gold medal with the United States during the team competition in Paris and is also a silver medalist from the Tokyo Olympics in the same event.
Throughout his rap career, Flavor Flav was known for wearing oversized clocks as necklaces.
Giving a personalized one to Chiles is a classy gesture amid what has to be a tough time for the 23-year-old.
Flavor Flav spent time with the United States women's water polo team as part of the Paris Olympics.
