‘Eccentric’ West melts Ice-T

Ice-T sees why Kanye West‘s outbursts continue to hog the headlines. “He’s a very interesting eccentric human being,” Ice-T told us. “I think Mike Tyson said people don’t pay attention to normal people . . . I just think that Kanye is an artist.” The rappers haven’t always seen eye to eye. When Ice-T accused Soulja Boy of “single-handedly killing hip-hop” with his dance tracks, West leapt to the rapper’s defense. Ice-T admits that people might also think he’s strange for flaunting his wife, Coco‘s, buxom body.

“We’re all kind of strange in our own way,” he said. Coco is known for her barely-there attire, and Ice approves. “He says, it’s like a Ferrari, you don’t want to keep the top on all the time,” she told us. “Not a lot of men would like that. He’s kind of an outrageous person like I am.” Ice-T and Coco will celebrate their ninth wedding anniversary at Noel Ashman‘s New Year’s Eve party tonight at Nuela.
