Coolio won me over when he changed his name to El Cool Magnifico half-way through Celebrity Fear Factor, which he of course won. He even changed his hairstyle to reflect the altered persona lol

I'm shocked to see that someone else remembers that lol.

IIRC Ol' Dirty Bastard died around that time. I remember Coolio talking about that during his appearance.

We only had 5 channels when I was a kid and there was a good stretch of years where Fear Factor was always on when I got off school, I saw that episode a few times.
