Mr T gives up his chains


Mr T is going to do a reality show called I Pity The Fool where he helps people deal with fools. He says he'll more likely be wearing a suit and bow-tie than his gold chains.

"Because of the situation we're in now (after Katrina), I told myself, 'No, T, you can never wear your gold again. ' It's an insult to God."

Though im not sure why his chains have anything to do with Katrina and/or God..

Maybe it's to do with decadance, and showing gratitude for what we have, not showing off.

Christop said...

Probably.

Wow, I thought Mr. T was dead!
I remember reading that the gold chains used to symbolise the opression of his ancestors - the first ones in america - and that the gold was to show that a black man could now attain wealth in the US.

Well, he had cancer, but I think he's pretty much over it now.
