Celebrity manicurist Tracylee Percival<\/a> gave me leopard-spotted claws. We name all our manicures and this design is “Pussy Galore<\/a>.” I took this picture a week after the manicure.<\/p>\n

One of Tracylee’s celebrity clients is none other than my idol Coco<\/a>. Maybe we’ll glimpse Tracylee on Coco’s new reality show about life with her rapper\/actor hubby, Ice-T. Ice and Coco are my favorite pimptastic lovahs<\/a> of all time — OF ALL TIME!<\/a> — so you better believe I’ll be glued to the TV when Ice Loves Coco<\/a> starts airing on E! on June 12<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I like what Ice said about the show to PopEater<\/a>: “It’s a show about our life and how Coco runs my life. It’s done in good taste and nobody’s fighting.” He also said, “I really admire my wife. I think she’s the best and I love everything she does and we admire each other.” Awww! Clearly, Ice really is “an eminently reasonable, positively likable guy, the gangsta rapper even a parent could love,” as the New York Times<\/a> said in an upbeat review of Ice’s new book, ICE: A Memoir of Gangster Life and Redemption — From South Central to Hollywood<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ice is doing all this stuff while hanging onto his day job playing Fin Tutuola<\/a> on Law & Order Special Victims Unit<\/a>. I’m happy for Ice but I’m a little jealous of all this career action on behalf of the horn-inducing<\/a> Richard Belzer<\/a>, who plays Tutuola’s SVU partner John Munch<\/a>. Why isn’t he getting a reality show too? If E! aired something like “Belzer Loves Brandes,” you’d all tune in, right? Don’t worry; I’m sure my MrB would be totally fine with that concept. After all, he’s the one who arranged my awesome 2010 telephonic encounter with Richard Belzer. Let’s take a moment to enjoy that again.<\/p>\n
