He was raised in Robert Taylor Homes, and his fame came from his time as a bodyguard and bouncer.
After helping to clean up the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina’s destruction, he decided to give up his famed gold jewelry. He was a star on the reality TV show I Pity the Fool. The title is based on his A-Team character’s catchphrase.
Mr. T (born Lawrence Tureaud; May 21, 1952) is an American actor, bodyguard, television personality, and retired professional wrestler, known for his roles as B. A. Baracus in the 1980s television series The A-Team and as boxer Clubber Lang in the 1982 film Rocky III.
In The A-Team, he played Sergeant Bosco “B. A.” Baracus, an ex-Army commando on the run with three other members from the United States government “for a crime they didn’t commit.” As well as the team’s tough guy, B. A. was a genius mechanic but afraid of flying. When asked at a press conference whether he was as stupid as B. A. Baracus, Mr. T observed quietly, “It takes a smart guy to play dumb.” His role in The A-Team led to him making an appearance in the long-running sit-com Diff’rent Strokes in the sixth season opener “Mr. T and Mr. t” (1983), in which an episode of The A-Team is supposedly filmed in the family’s penthouse apartment. A Ruby-Spears-produced cartoon called Mister T premiered in 1983 on NBC. The Mister T cartoon starred Mr. T as himself, the owner of a gym where a group of gymnasts trained. He helped them with their training but they also helped him solve mysteries and fight crime in Scooby-Doo-style scenarios; thirty episodes were produced.
In 1984, Mr. T released an album titled Mr. T’s Commandments (Columbia/CBS Records), in much the same tone as his 1984 educational video, which instructed children to stay in school and to stay away from drugs. He followed it up the same year with a second album, titled Mr. T’s Be Somebody… or Be Somebody’s Fool! (MCA Records), featuring music from the eponymous film. In 2002, Mr. T appeared as a bartender in the video for “Pass the Courvoisier, Part II” by Busta Rhymes featuring Sean Combs and Pharrell Williams.
