Thank gawd Vanilla Ice’s career went down the shitter as quickly as it did.

As you can imagine, he was an absolute nightmare to work with while on top of the charts, and I’m sure he still is, he just doesn’t have any clout anymore.

While opening for Vanilla back in 1991, Alanis Morissette, then a virtual nobody, says that she wasn’t even allowed to look him in the eye when in his presence.

She told Virgin Radio,

“I was instructed not to look him in the eye and that was my first experience of honoring someone’s privacy to the point where you look away when they come near you. I thought, ‘Wow, I didn’t think that actually existed!’”

Nowadays, the laughingstock of the rap industry begs for people to notice him. Funny how things change. Can you imagine what a fricking monster this guy would be if people actually paid attention to him?

Anyone remember Jim Carrey as Vanilla Ice on “In Living Color”?  I had to post it, because not only is that one of my favorite shows of all time, Jim did a great job of mocking Vanilla.  A classic!

I didn’t know Vanilla was rockin’ the wonk eye!

Rob Van Winkle, a.k.a. Vanilla Ice, was arrested last night after being involved in a heated altercation with his wife.

Laura Van Winkle called the police and told them that he was kicking and hitting her. However, after police arrived she changed her story saying he had merely pushed her.

Rob was booked into the Palm Beach County Jail on a charge of simple domestic battery.

Laura told police, “He started yelling at me for going out to buy a bedroom set. In front of my daughter. I’m sorry I can’t say any more until I talk to an attorney.”

She also stated that she wants a divorce from her husband.

Rob told authorities that his wife is bipolar and although medicated is prone to ‘argumentative episodes’. He added that the couple had been fighting since the day before and claims his wife threw a picture that shattered by himself and their children. He denies pushing her.
