Yes, Ice is back with (not a brand new invention, but) a new TV show. Rob Van Winkle or the artist formerly known as Vanilla Ice is now a rapper turned home improvement specialist.
His new show 'The Vanilla Ice Project' premieres tonight on the DIY network. According to the shows website Rob brings 15 years of home improvement expertise to a 700,000 mansion. Each week Rob and his coworkers tackle a new home improvement project. Well, I guess we know how Mr. Ice supported himself after his 'one hit wonder' success.
Rob's look is a little different than most of us remember from the 90's. He's covered in tattoos, has a gotee and comes off a little rough around the edges. Those us of reality junkies remember his stint on the Surreal Life on VH1; but other than that he's been absent from mainstream pop culture.
The Do-It-Yourself network is a step below HGTV and why not give Vanilla Ice a sweet home improvement project in a in mansion to boost ratings. I'll be tuning in.
