Nick Name
Kennedy is known as "Compton Ass Terry" on Bam Margera's MTV television show, Viva La Bam, although Terry is from Long Beach, not Compton. The nickname comes from a fictitious backstory that Kennedy and Margera met after Margera took a wrong turn and ended up in Compton. He had also made cameo appearance in Snoop Dogg's chart topping song Drop It Like It's Hot, as well as in the video for Mistah Fab's song Ghost Ride It.
Shooting
In June 2005, Terry was shot two times, once in the jaw, and once in the forearm, while leaving a party in Long Beach, California.[1] He made a full recovery. Terry has also been featured on ABC Family's show, Switched. He is in the video game Skate which was released on September 14, 2007.
