Seriously? OMG! WTF?

Yesterday, Freedom 250 announced nine concerts to celebrate America’s 250th. The acts are a bunch of ’90s has-beens. However, not has-been enough to drop out of the event.

Morris Day and the Time, Young MC, and C+C Music Factory dropped out. Today, three more musicians followed suit.

Melissa McBride wrote: “I would like to talk to you and clear the air. I will not be performing at the Great American State Fair on June 25th. I was presented with an opportunity to perform at a nonpartisan event but that turned out to be misleading. I asked lots of questions and was assured this was a nonpartisan event that was meant to celebrate ALL 50 states. In my mind I thought this was a great way to celebrate the states and also bring people together in the way that only music can. I saw it as just a bigger version of so many state fairs I have performed at over the years, celebrating community and what makes each state special. Sounds fun, right? Wholesome even. Yesterday things started changing and what we were told is, in fact, not what is happening.

“I’ve spent my entire career singing songs about real people with real issues. I’ve been blessed with the opportunity to be a voice for those who have felt like they didn’t have one. It greatly upsets me that any fan who has been moved by my music may now feel like I’m abandoning the meaning behind those songs. I assure you, that is not the case. I appreciate every single fan who has reached out. I hope to get back to the DC area very soon.”

The Commodores wrote: “The Commodores will not be performing at the Great American State Fair.

“Our music has always been our voice and we choose not to publicly affiliate with any single political party. We support the betterment of all Americans.”

Finally, Milli Vanilli wrote: “The Commodores will not be performing at the Great American State Fair.

“Our music has always been our voice and we choose not to publicly affiliate with any single political party. We support the betterment of all Americans.”

Neither Bret Michaels nor Flo Rida has confirmed or denied whether they will still perform. However, Flo Rida is touring overseas.

Lastly, Vanilla Ice is going full steam ahead. Personally, I think he is a big part of booking this event. But, sadly, it backfired for Meidas Trump.

UPDATE: Add Bret Michaels to the list of cancellations.

Hello to all my awesome friends & fans,

I wanted to jump on here real quick and talk about the upcoming Freedom 250 event in Washington, D.C.

When this opportunity was originally presented to my team, it was described as a celebration of our country through music and a chance to honor our veterans, active military, first responders, teachers and hardworking Americans from all walks of life. As the son of a veteran, and coming from a family that has proudly served, that is something I have always been honored to support.

As many of you know, I’ve spent my entire career bringing people together through music, positivity and good vibes. My shows have never been about politics. They’re about giving people a place to come together, have a great time and forget about life’s stresses for a few hours.

Unfortunately, what was presented to us as a celebration of our country has evolved into something much more divisive than what I agreed to be a part of. Concerns have also been raised regarding the safety of my fans, band, crew, family and myself, including threats that are completely unfounded and unforgivable.

Because of that, I have made the difficult decision to step away from this performance.

Ice-T/Twitter

Have you ever wondered what it would look like if Ice Cube, Ice Spice, Ice-T, and Vanilla Ice got together on ice? Well, wonder no more, because the Law & Order: SVU star made it happen, not in real life, but with artificial intelligence. And now, I want this to become a reality with the four of them releasing a song as IcesQuad!

I usually am not a fan of AI, but I approve of it in this case because it is as cool as ice!

It is not even 48 hours after the election, and Vanilla Ice has thrown his hat into the presidential race.

The singer said that he would make America the ’90s again and he would also add a bunch of holidays to the calendar, like Go Ninja, Go Monday.

Then he had a message I can get behind, “I just want to say, ‘Don’t take everything in life too serious. Shake a hand, make a friend. Democrat, Republican, whatever it is, we are all American. So get out there and enjoy the pursuit of happiness. Don’t ever forget that word, pursuit. Pursue yourself some happiness.'”

And the best part for him is that his slogan is, If there is a problem, you know I’ll solve it.

He totally has my vote. That is unless The Rock also runs. Then, I am in trouble because I knew both of those guys in Miami and would not know who to vote for. Maybe the ticket could be The Rock and  Vanilla Ice or Dwayne Johnson and Rob Van Winkle. Then my decision is easy!

Vanilla Ice was seen helping customers at Bob’s Discount Furniture. So is the Rapper turned HGTV star having money problems? Nope, because he got paid to do this commercial which shows off his funny side. Therefore, he is laughing all the way to the bank with the ice ice baby!

How did they do? I would pay for Vanilla Ice to do a duet with this video and critique their dance moves on TikTok. Just like what Ramsay does to all of those aspiring chefs.

Please, Rob, do it. It is something we all need. And on January 5th, we are all going to need more of Italian chef Gino D’Acampo once America discovers him in Gordon Ramsay’s American Road Trip on Fox. I promise you; you are going to love as much as I do. I think I might love him even more than Ramsay, but don’t tell.
