No More Bling

Posted by on July 16 at 17:37 PM

In recognition of the lives devastated by Hurricane Katrina, the founding father of bling, Mr. T, is shedding his neck-thick chains of gold. “As a spiritual man,” Mr. T told reporters, “I felt it would be a sin against my God for me to wear all that gold again because I spent a lot of time with the less fortunate.” Tell it like it is, brother, tell it like it is.

A few years ago he was on TV talking about how he swore off such worldly posessions (his famous jewelry) due to his newfound faith. I guess nobody noticed because the Mr. T. character was rehashed shortly thereafter for a slough of television ads and cameos. Just the same, the man's gotta work, and more power to him this time around.
