Finally watched this week's episode of Glee last night, and LOVED the song choices: Physical (how good does Olivia Newton-John look?), Can't Touch This, and of course Ice Ice Baby. I was stunned that Vanilla Ice (nee Robbie Van Winkle) would let the show use this song, since he rarely plays it in concert (um, so I've heard) and seems like a very bitter, angry guy in general. Must have been a while since he's seen a paycheck, so he gave in.
Little known fact: Robbie is from Dallas, and he lived on the same street as a girl in my high school. We would run over to his house, bang on the door, and yell "Vanilla! Vanilla!" No wonder he's pissed off.
But how much did I want his jacket (pictured above). Actually still do. I feel like he also had one with "Word To Your Mother" on the back in sequins. Which would really be even cooler. Cold as ice, actually.
i think you meant WORD TO YOUR MUTHA. but it's ok. i got it.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right. Way to know your Vanilla Ice trivia.
