Ice-T to Host A&E’s New Special Fame and Fentanyl

A&E has slated the debut of Fame and Fentanyl, a two-hour special with Ice-T as host, for August 25.

“Fentanyl, for me, came out of nowhere. By the time I learned about the drug, I had already lost people to it. It’s a poison in the drug world, and I wanted to do everything that I could to make people aware of its danger,” said Ice-T.

Fame and Fentanyl exposes the devastating impact of fentanyl on society and culture. Hosted by Ice-T, the special offers a raw and unfiltered look at the deadly drug that has claimed the lives of many.

Fame and Fentanyl is produced for A&E by Candle True Stories. Executive producers for Candle True Stories are James Goldston and Steven Baker. Erica Hanson serves as both executive producer and director, and Graham McKay serves as co-executive producer. Ice-T and Jorge Hinojosa serve as executive producers. Elaine Frontain Bryant and Brad Abramson serve as executive producers for A&E.
