ICE-T’S “MASKED DANCER” FEARS

After Ice-T was unmasked on the debut episode of “The Masked Dancer,” he was finally allowed to share a little bit about the behind-the-scenes of his participation in the celebrity dance competition.

Talking to TMZ, Ice-T recalled that it was not a big deal for him to agree to take part in the show, since it involved little effort to him and he wasn’t actually worried about being a dancer.

But the “Law & Order: SVU” star only understood the difficulty of what he was to do on the show when he put on the costume, especially after trying on the 20-pound head for the first time.

After getting a feeling of how it was to perform on the heavy costume, Ice-T started to worry mainly about his physical well-being, since he feared he was going to fall and not only harm himself but also become a laughing matter.

Since he managed to do the episode without getting harmed, Ice-T is happy with his participation in the show, although he was eliminated right away. After all, he only did it to make his daughter happy.

As Ice-T told TMZ, he hadn’t even heard of “The Masked Dancer” when he received a call from the producers to invite him to it, and he only said yes after he learned about Chanel’s interest in the “The Masked Singer” spinoff series.
