Ice-T is in Australia filming his new movie. 

On Tuesday evening, the iconic American rapper made an appearance on the local program The Project, only to encounter a question that he considered rather outdated.

In my own words, as a lifestyle expert, I might rephrase it like this: “I recently found myself in a chat with TV host Waleed Aly, and he asked me about the ‘Ice’ part of my nickname. Let me share the story behind it!

The elderly person stated, “Everyone desires to appear trendy, if you catch my drift. Being as calm and collected as an ice cube is the ultimate symbol of being cool.

Well, let me clarify, I’m Ice-T, not the kind of ice tea you’d drink. My name actually begins with ‘T’, and that’s Tracy spelled out in full.

Well, let me tell you, I’m often referred to as ‘Cool T,’ and that’s because I share my name with Iceberg Slim, a well-known figure in hip hop culture. My friends usually call me by the shortened version of my nickname, ‘Iceberg,’ or simply ‘Berg.’

As the actor responded politely to the initial question, one of the other hosts inquired if it was out of bounds to question the “ice” in his name, raising a point about coolness.

In response, Ice-T left Waleed blushing as he mocked him.  

He replied, “Indeed, that’s a question you might expect from someone who’s very much grounded in reality.

Waleed’s fellow actors burst out laughing wildly, leaving Waleed struggling to regain his composure amidst the uproarious laughter. He found it difficult to come up with a response.

As your go-to lifestyle guide, I’m thrilled to share that I’m currently down under in sunny Australia, bringing an action-packed comedy titled “Zombie Plane” to life! This project is being filmed on the stunning Gold Coast in the beautiful state of Queensland. Stay tuned for more updates as we bring this unique blend of humor and horror to the big screen!

The narrative unfolds around famous personalities engaged in a struggle against zombies during a flight from Sydney to Los Angeles.

Additionally, you’ll find Chuck Norris, Vanilla Ice, Sir Bob Geldof, Brian Austin Green, and Sophie Monk portraying their own imaginative counterparts in this production.

Additionally, Australian celebrities such as Natalie Bassingwaithe, Cody Simpson, Kyle Sandilands, Matt Okine, Dan Ewing, and Amy Shark will also make an appearance in the movie.

Star Sophie Monk described the movie as a madcap ride that she was delighted to be a part of. 

As I stood there, my heart pounding, I found myself imploring, “Could you possibly open the door for me?” – This is how I expressed my enthusiasm to the Gold Coast Bulletin not long ago as an ardent fan.

‘I got ADD and I read the whole script in one go – it’s fun, silly and it’s right down my alley.’

She put it simply as: “It’s quite enjoyable, the kind of film you can sit back and relax with.

Ice-T embarked on his rapping journey during the 1980s, later expanding his accomplishments with a significant presence in both TV and film industries.

He shares nine-year-old daughter, Chanel, with his wife Coco Austin, who he married in 2002. 

Chanel, Ice-T also has two adult children from previous relationships. 

In his high school days, while dating Adrienne, he embraced his eldest child, 48-year-old LeTesha Marrow, who has mostly avoided public attention throughout the years.

He and his ex-girlfriend Darlene Ortiz later welcomed a son, Tracy Marrow Jr., 33. 

Ice-t and his ex met on the set of Breakin’ in 1984 and went on to date for 17 years, until 2000.
