The Pickup Line Ice-T Used To Get Coco Is Incredible

Let's face it — dating isn't easy. Sure, some of us don't have any trouble meeting new men and women to go out on dates with, but there's a difference between meeting someone to go out with and meeting someone that you actually could fall in love with. So how do you know if this person hitting on you could possibly become "the one"? How do you woo the person you've got your eye on and get them to agree to a date?

Well, just ask rapper Ice-T. 

The rapping icon has been married to his wife Coco Austin since 2002.

But the story of how they met is definitely not like anything you've heard before. 

Apparently Ice-T had to win over Coco with one very, very unique pickup line.

And it clearly worked, because the two have been an item for over 15 years!

So what did the Law & Order: SVU star say to the actress/model to get her attention?

Well, it all went down when Ice-T decided to visit one of his friend's video shoots...

Coco was working as a model in the video, and Ice-T's friend decided to introduce her to the rapper. 

Within seconds of meeting, Ice-T decided to ask her a pretty bold question.

"Would you ever consider dating a gangster rapper?"

A bit confused and shy, she responded by saying that yes, she would date a gangster rapper... IF he was nice.

Ice-T didn't miss a beat and responded with one of the coolest lines ever.

"Well, baby, if you take the 'n' off nice, you get ice."

Just two months later, Ice-T and Coco tied the knot. 

If we can learn absolutely anything from this epic "how we met" story, it's that confidence almost never fails.

Just ask Ice-T.

The two have now been married for over 15 years and have a beautiful baby girl!

And none of this would have happened if Ice-T didn't have the confidence and swagger to pull off a pickup line like that!
