According to VH1, Flavor of Love 3  will definitely be the final season of the hit show.

"America's favorite bachelor is back for the last time looking for a girl who has the sophistication to match his A-list lifestyle," the network said in a press release.  (Sophistication?  A-list lifestyle? Are they talking about the same show I've been watching for two seasons?)

Anyhoo, the network says the new contestants, who were given nicknames including Bunz and Prancer,  will fight hard to win the 48-year-old rapper's heart this season. 

"Every challenge Flav poses, from nursing his broken heart on a hospital gurney, to composing a hip-hopera about Flavor Flav's life, will be engineered to make those women, who truly have love for Flav, shine," VH1 said. "Whether it's jumping out of a plane at 30,000 feet, or swimming with sharks, these women will constantly be put to the test."
