No guest spot for her on Law & Order anytime soon...
Ice T is in a back-and-forth Twitter match with Katie Hopkins, most recently telling her to "eat a dick."
It all started when rumours that Idris Elba could play the next 007 were fuelled by the actor with this tweet:

Hopkins, renowned for vocalising her right-wing conservative opinions, tweeted a video in response explaining why she thinks Elba could never play Bond.

In the video, she says Bond is "written as an upper-class, arrogant white toff" who has had a privileged upbringing and is "well-connected by his Swiss family fortune."
"No, Idris Elba. You cannot be #JamesBond, no matter how many tweets you put out fishing for attention. It’s not because you are a gentleman of colour. It’s because James Bond isn’t..."#IdrisElba007 pic.twitter.com/cwqkRnTisU

Ice T, who admitted he has dealt with racism his "whole life", wasn't impressed.
He quoted the video writing "this bitch sounds stupid." Hopkins then replied taking shots at the Law & Order: SVU favourite's real name, Tracy Lauren Marrow.
Thank you for listening, Tracy Lauren Marrow. Ice T my ass. @FINALLEVEL https://t.co/xAqikcLB0U

Thus came Ice's "eat a dick" tweet. He was also shocked to find out Hopkins' age.
Lol The Ho replied! Eat a Dick. https://t.co/5fO15ICv0H
