More quotes by Vanilla Ice
Concerts every night, autograph signings, endorsements, and so on. That's not what real life is about.
Vanilla Ice
A lot of people think I was an overnight success, but I was an opening act for three or four years, and then I signed my contract with EMI. Then it kind of blew up overnight.
Vanilla Ice
I don't harp on what I could change about the past, because I can't go back and change it. But definitely a lot of things I would change.
Vanilla Ice
Be yourself and enjoy yourself. Show me a smile and I'll show you one back. Karma: Believe in it. It's real. It comes back to you.
Vanilla Ice
I like Cleveland. I like the Cavaliers. Nothing wrong with Cleveland. I have lots of friends there.
Vanilla Ice
Listen, if you don't talk big game, you never get anywhere. If you don't think big, you don't get big. Some people call it egotistical, some people call it high hopes, some people call it confidence. It's all in how you want to dissect it.
Vanilla Ice
I have been known to hang out and party back in the day. I had a weekend that lasted a few years.
Vanilla Ice
I'm a Christian, but I don't believe in religion or anything like that.
Vanilla Ice
All my friends were black and Mexican. I was the only white kid in our group and had to work hard to be accepted. Year after year, we'd breakdance and we all became close and they labeled me Vanilla - like Hey, Vanilla and they knew I hated it, so of course they kept calling me it.
Vanilla Ice
No way! Let me tell you, I'm no Elvis. Elvis had his time. I'm Vanilla Ice, and it's my turn now.
Vanilla Ice
I didn't end up going bankrupt... I made some great investments and I held on to my money, which also enables me to have the freedom to do what I want now. But it's not about finances. No matter what, it's about keeping it real.
Vanilla Ice
Negativity spreads faster than any Justin Bieber song.
Vanilla Ice
For three years between 16 and 19 I was the opening-act-for-the-opening-act-for-the-opening-act, you know? And then I was on tour with Ice-T, Stetsasonic, EPMD, Sir Mix-a-Lot--legends--and went on to sell 160 million records. It still baffles me.
Vanilla Ice
I turned a lot of people in white America - and not just white America, but middle-class America - into hip-hoppers, you know?
Vanilla Ice
I got caught up on drugs for a few years, I'm off it, I'm very happy, got two kids and a family and everything. And like I said I'm making the underground music, and keeping it real.
Vanilla Ice
I've never left music behind, but I've had success in television.
Vanilla Ice
Stop, collaborate and listen.
Vanilla Ice
If you grew up in my generation, you're going to be influenced by Run DMC, the Beastie Boys and also listen to Metallica - it wasn't segregated anymore.
Vanilla Ice
Learn from my mistakes and you don't have to make them yourself.
Vanilla Ice
More than half of all the hip hop record sales are white people, and I think that might be a result of my record helping people to accept hip hop.
