YouTube sensation Logan Paul has become a superstar in his own right taking over the online world. While he is widely recognized for his online presence and boxing endeavors, he was also once an aspiring actor as well. Moreover, many know him for his role in the series “Bizaardvark” back in 2016. Both Paul brothers starred in this Disney channel show before the show was canceled in 2o19. Jake was cut off in the second season while Logan remained until the show was canceled.

However, this would only be the start of Paul’s acting journey as he appeared in a few shows following this. He also recently shared a memorable and somewhat comical experience from an episode of the famous television series Law and Order SVU.

In a recent episode of his podcast Impaulsive, along with hip hop legend Ice Cube, ‘The Maverick’ detailed the time he found himself acting alongside renowned rapper Ice-T in an episode of Law and Order. The encounter left Paul both amused and starstruck as Ice-T who played the role of Detective Odafin Tutuola playfully teased him before shooting his character on-screen. In Paul’s own words, he recounted the incident during a conversation, saying

“Ice-T shot me…. I was on Law and Order SVU. It was my first role, and, uh, this guy comes up to me. He’s… and he says something like, ‘Hey, like, how you doing, man? Like, good luck on your scene today.’ And I was like, I was like, ‘Oh, thanks, dude. Like, what’s your role here?’ And it was Ice-T. Oh, damn. He laughs at me. He goes, ‘All right, man,’ and then walks away. Then, in this scene, he gets to shoot me, and he kills my character. That was my first taste of Hollywood, getting shot by a legend.” said Paul.

For Paul, who was just starting his acting journey, having an interaction with a seasoned actor like Ice-T was undoubtedly a memorable experience.

Ice-T did not know who Paul was years after meeting him

While Paul got to know the veteran rapper and his role in the crime drama, the same cannot be said for Ice-T. Back in 2018, the rapper took to social media and called out the Ohio-based boxer for detailing a story when he met him. According to Paul, he did not know who Ice-T was at the time and mistook him for a security guard.

Ice-T took to social media to express his surprise at Paul’s lack of recognition, highlighting that he too was unaware of who the YouTuber-turned-boxer was at the time. “The funny thing is I STILL don’t know who dude is…..” he wrote.
