‘Rule one on the internet: Do not pay attention to anything anyone says on the internet,’ Ice-T told the co-hosts of The View. ‘Worry about the people that walk up to you and say things in your real life.’
‘Those are the people you should be concerned with. The internet is the world. It’s the world talking, so I don’t pay attention,’ he added.
The actor went on to explain that his daughter is ‘loved’ by her parents and noted that ‘everybody parents differently’ and ‘every house has its own constitution.’

Controversy: Coco Austin caught heavy criticism last Thursday, after gushing on social media over Chanel’s ‘mini tips’ French manicure
Last week was the latest when the model caught flack for letting the Kindergartener get fake nails for school.
‘School Picture day!! For the special occasion I let Chanel do mini tips to her nails.. I love doing her hair.. my little doll baby is what I call her…,’ wrote the proud mother.
However, the French tips left the comments section divided, with some saying Chanel looked adorable and others questioning whether she was old enough to get her nails done.
Some remarked: ‘To young for nails!!!!!’ and: ‘Breastfed w tips,’ and: ‘I’m sorry but no to tips and makeup at her age. Let her be an adorable little 5 year old.’

The latest picture comes after a controversy that erupted when Coco revealed that she still occasionally breastfeeds her five-year-old.
Coco told Us Weekly this July that in addition to solid food like ‘steak and hamburgers’ her daughter ‘likes a little snack every now and then’ of breast milk.
‘Why take that away from her?’ the mother of one argued. ‘If she doesn’t want it, all right, that’s where you stop it. But I’m not just going to say no.’
She declared to the magazine that ‘Chanel still likes my boobs. It’s a big bonding moment for a mother and your child.’

The remarks sparked a backlash prompting Ice-T to defend his wife on Twitter by noting his own enthusiasm for her breasts.
‘News Flash! We feed Chanel FOOD… She just likes to suck moms boob every now and then… Me Too!!!’ he quipped.
He also snapped at one online commentator: ‘Why the F are you worried about MY Child??? That’s what’s weird.. Now go back in the basement.’
Early in the coronavirus lockdowns last year Coco posted a snap of herself nursing Chanel, who was then four, and wrote in the caption: ‘At a time when the world feels like its coming to an end.. suck up as much love as you can!’
