Pre-dated Eminem by a decade as the first “white” rapper to hit the charts with 2 top-10 albums and a (failed) feature film. He was also an accomplished motorcycle racer and named by People magazine as one of the “50 most beautiful people” of 1990.
His music career fizzled after 9 months. Virtually bankrupt by the early 90s Vanilla Ice was forced to supplement his income by cycle racing and touring overseas. A much publicized descent into drugs and obscurity forced Ice to clean-up his “act” and, after the birth of his daughter, return to touring and recording. Currently in smaller and little-known venues.
October 2004: Currently appearing on a reality TV show in the UK, called The Farm, where celebrities have to run a farm.

Hi. My name is Steve. 2005 I was working at a subway restaurant in a small city named Prince Albert, Saskatchewan, Canada. This is such a pathetic town. The casino always goes for the lowest bidder for theie venues. So. Of course, Vanilla Ice dropped by the city and did a performance for about 3 or 4 hundered people. The show was over at 2 am. I was working till 3 am. And lo and behold, Vanilla Ice walked in with a few buddies or groupies and ordered a Chicken teriaki Sub. I was so busy that I never noticed who it was until a bunch of kids came through the door and said, “That’s him!”
I wish I had the opportunity to talk to him! Damn!
Appeared on reality show “Hit Me Baby One More Time”.
