In the early ’90s Vanilla Ice was the first chart topping white rapper with Ice Ice Baby then he finished the century as a hard core rocker. Now in the year 2012 he is changing his tune once again to be an Indie Rocker. The Soup got an exclusive performance with the DIY host at a coffee shop and I can’t wait to go buy his album like all those other hipsters. Seriously don’t you like the way he changed up his biggest hit. Seriously doesn’t it grab hold of you tightly?
You can learn even more about his drastic musical change tomorrow when the full segment airs at 10p on E!’s The Soup.
Adam Richman travels down in The Keys tonight at 9p for Travel Channel’s Man v Food and Florida staple Vanilla Ice is there to help him learn a few things about the vacation spot. Not only did the host of DIY Network’s The Vanilla Ice Project teach the man who is not a afraid of any eating challenge how to dress for the weather, but he also taught him what is a true Key Lime Pie is. The one thing I learned about the yummy dessert when I lived in Miami, is that a true Key Lime Pie is yellow like the fruit itself. Did you know that?
I can’t wait to see what else the Ice Ice Baby teaches him and what food eating challenge Adam gobbles down on Man v Food. Team Man!!!
Vanilla Ice is in England competing on Dancing on Ice and he told ITV’s Daybreak that he had a little mishap this week. The rapper went down on the Ice Ice Baby during a rehearsal and was knocked unconscious. Thankfully he is OK minus some bruising to his face, so he will be able to compete on the show again this weekend and sing Play That Funky Music again really soon.
Go White Boy, Go White Boy, Go!
Before Vanilla Ice recorded his version of Play That Funky Music, he was singing it in the streets. I just love the 21 year old’s moves in that 1989 rare footage!

Vanilla Ice attended the Tag Heuers 150th Anniversary Celebration and the rapper turned rocker really cleaned up well. Robert Van Winkle really looks Cool as Ice with their Ice Ice Ice Baby on his arm and a suit. Seriously I never realized what a handsome man he really is until these pictures. I think I might have to blow the dust off of my To The Extreme CD and listen to it again. Don’t judge me, even Glee admitted he is good!
