Wyclef Jean – S18, episode 395: “Broken Rhymes” (2016) (Grammy nominated rapper, actor) Jean guest starred as a record label CEO who orchestrates an attack on a transgender woman, in order to protect his artist’s gangster image. “I felt this issue was an important subject matter. In our society, people are not supposed be judged by the decisions they make with their bodies but should be judged only by their heart. 50 years from now, people will remember a show that dealt with issues head on, and was never scared to show truth. The cast and the crew were so warm. They made me feel like I was part of a high school musical - so much love and laughter on set. I also found out Mariska [Hargitay, Benson] is a gangsta rapper, and Ice T is her coach! I’ve always been a fan of the show. Why go to law school when you have SVU? I think I’m a great lawyer, watching and yelling at the TV, screaming out my lungs who’s guilty and who’s not!”
