What makes critics dictate what is cool and what is not. What gives them the pass to say that their opinion on music or movies or anything is what should be cool and what shouldn't. I don't think it should be up to one person.

More quotes by Vanilla Ice
My breakdancing crew used to go to the mall and squat a piece of cardboard there we had our jam box, and I'd spin on my head and make about forty bucks a day, which was pretty good back then. I was only 14 years old, so I would chase the girls around the mall and eat some pizza and have some change left over.

I like Cleveland. I like the Cavaliers. Nothing wrong with Cleveland. I have lots of friends there.
Vanilla Ice
Learn from my mistakes and you don't have to make them yourself.
Vanilla Ice
I didn't want the public in my personal life at all - I thought that people might perceive me as too normal, and I'd lose that larger-than-life rock star persona. You've got to protect that!
Vanilla Ice
Show me who your friends are and I'll show you who you are. It works for me. Stay positive and good things happen.
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.

With the mega-fame came the mega-downfall - you know, with the press and everything - and at a young age, it was very stressful to me.

I own a mortgage company and a real estate company funded by the music. Florida is a kinda gold mine.

I do freestyle jumping. Been doing since I was eight years old and can't quit. I'm addicted. I've broken many bones, but I ride with confidence. It's my thing - there's no high on earth like it. It's my hobby and I really enjoy it.
Vanilla Ice
I just kept it real and had the freedom to do what I want. It's not designed for any age group. It's not made for radio. There are no edits. The whole album contains explicit lyrics but that's because you need it.
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 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
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 don't know all the certain words to word it.
Vanilla Ice
And all the zig-zags and lines in my hair? I used to do that myself. I just thought it was cool that you could actually do that with your hair.
Vanilla Ice
It took me a while and a lot of hard times to figure out my purpose, I am so happy with my life. I just want to help make other people happy too.
Vanilla Ice
Anything less than the best is a felony.

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
Another car is not going to help me out, a nicer car, I've already got it. A bigger house ain't gonna do anything for me, and you know, a yacht, it's not going to do anything for me anymore. So how can I find happiness?
Vanilla Ice
I do a lot of TV stuff, but I also turn a lot down - it's got to be an adventure.
