COCO Austin has taken heat from critics for sharing an odd video of her and Ice-T’s daughter Chanel on social media.
The TV personality posted footage of her and her only child doing a TikTok dance together that didn’t sit right with some followers.

Coco, 44, shared the video on TikTok and Instagram, revealing in her caption: “Chanel always makes me do these weird dances I just go with it.
“I stole this from her phone to show you. Lol.”
In the video, the mother-daughter duo danced to Boom Boom Pow by the Black Eyed Peas.
It kicked off with Chanel standing in front of the camera making a peace sign with her fingers while her mom stood not far behind.
At one point, Coco stood with one leg up and the other planted on the floor.
Her butt was facing the camera and she twerked slightly to the beat as her daughter slapped her bottom.
Despite the fact that the video was meant to be sweet, several fans seemed to find it inappropriate.
“It is not appropriate for a little girl or her mother,” one hater wrote.
Another commented: “Ridiculous. She has a phone at her age? Inappropriate.”
“I feel sorry for this kid,” a third critic commented.
It wasn’t all drama and backlash, however.
One Coco supporter wrote: “What’s weird about this? This is freaking adorable.”
Another commented: “I wish my mom could have been so cool. Such a neat relationship.”
A third fan wrote: “This is a great video. People need to calm down.”
Coco is no stranger to controversy, especially when it comes to how she dresses and her parenting style.
BIKINI BACKLASH
Back in May 2022, the star was slammed as a “bad mom” for posing alongside Chanel in a barely-there bikini.
At the time, she was spotted spending time in a splash pad with her daughter over Memorial Day weekend.
While the model was spotted doting on her daughter, many founds found themselves focused solely on her outfit choice.
In pics from the park outing, Coco was seen squatting next to Chanel in a string thong bikini that left little to the imagination.
She shared the photos on her Instagram with the caption: “When your husband turns into paparazzi, lol.”
She included the hashtag: “Give them something to talk about.”

Fans and critics alike were certainly talking, with one writing: “A bit much around all the kids now Coco.”
That comment alone racked up over 800 likes.
Another hater wrote: “I agree, I think this is horrid. Please be appropriate around small children.”
A third chimed in: “You think it’s okay for kids to be exposed to such indecent swimsuits? Only weird people think this is ok.”
Some disagreed, however.
One supporter wrote: “She’s in a bikini in the Bahamas. Why should she have to adjust her clothing because there are kids?”
A second commented: “She’s in a two-piece, not naked.”
Someone else added: “If you don’t like seeing her a**, then don’t look at it. She’s not hurting anyone.”
ROLLING WITH IT
Prior to the swimsuit drama, Coco and Ice-T were ripped for the fact that they continued using a stroller for their daughter well past an age some critics felt was appropriate.
The couple shared a pic from a trip to the Bahamas that showed them pushing the girl in a large stroller.
Her Law & Order: SVU star father had on a red and white striped shirt and matching LA hat while Coco wore a floral dress and rocked bright pink hair.
She showed off major cleavage in the photo and held onto the stroller as she posed.
Another photo in the set showed the mother-daughter duo posing in front of a crystal sculpture while smiling at the camera.
Coco captioned the post: “A stroll through the @atlantisbahamas shops.
“Chanel is so over it unless there’s something cool to see. Her face transitions instantly.”
In the comments, critics laid into her and Ice-T.
One wrote: “I know she may be your last baby but you have to let her grow up. If anything a wagon is more her age!”
They went on: “I have a six-year-old smaller than her and she hasn’t been in a stroller in years. I would hate for your sweet baby to get bullied or something.”
Someone else wrote alongside a facepalm emoji: “In a stroller.”
A third ranted: “Isn’t she like 6 yrs old! Should she be out of a stroller by now?!”
Yet a fourth asked: “Why she in a stroller?”
A final joked: “Guys she’s only 78 months old. Let’s not get crazy.”
