Watch just a few minutes of the show and it’s clear that Vanilla Ice, 44, is a man in command of his kingdom. But even more notable than its popularity is its accessibility and authority.

Next Saturday marks the start of the second season of “The Vanilla Ice Project,” the unlikely DIY Network hit. He’s still making music, but he’s also now flipping homes. Yes, Vanilla Ice, once the most famous and reviled rapper in America, a towering figure of hip-hop crossover and identity crisis. That’s when Vanilla Ice, seeing that the goal is near, leans in and commands again, “Bulldog it!” The aggressive bursts of heat begin to numb my fingers as wood bursts into sawdust, and the grain gets more beautiful and the surface more smooth. Obstacle avoided, I go back and forth with the sandpaper for a few seconds at a time - any more and the heat generated sends my fingertips into paroxysms of agony, as if I’m gripping matches by the lighted end. Minutes before, trying to maneuver in the tight space, I stepped on a Bostitch nail gun, resulting in a bitter hiss. Surely there is a power tool designed to address this situation, but on this balmy day I am the power tool. In my hand is a piece of thick burgundy 3M sandpaper, and in front of me is a stubborn knot of wood, jutting out maybe half an inch from an otherwise elegant circular staircase. It’s advice, sure, but really it’s an order. The New York Times ran a story this weekend about the start of the second season of the Vanilla Ice Project. His other two shows on the DIY network have been smashing successes so expect more of the same from this new one.įiled Under: Blog Vanilla Ice appears in Nascar Illustrated Vanilla Ice Goes Amish will air later this year and is currently in production.

“Hi Vanilla Ice, Love Love Love all your DIY Network shows!!! You and your crew do absolutely amazing work!!! Ice Ice Baby…Word to your Mother!!” - Kevin BennĬheck out the show that has become the hottest house flipping show on cable television, the Vanilla Ice Project Season 4. “I really enjoy your house flip show” - Robin Dickson

“Best f$*%&# show on cable!” - Prime Minister Rosa “You’re the only guy on TV with the balls to buy, fix up and flip a multi-million dollar mansion!” Here is what some of his fans have to say about the show:

What used to be a hobby has turned into a very profitable side business for the international music superstar. In addition to being incredibly entertaining, you also discover just how talented and passionate Vanilla Ice is with fixing up houses. Rob Van Winkle, aka Vanilla Ice, renovates dilapidated mansions in his hometown of Palm Beach, FL and turns them into pimped out palatial estates fit for a rockstar. In it’s 4th season, the Vanilla Ice Project is one of the hottest shows on the DIY Network (owned by Scripps Networks who also owns HGTV). The rest of the Heat who were standing on stage did not seem all that impressed, though, which probably had something to with the fact that Wade, Amar’e Stoudemire, and Udonis Haslem are probably the only three Miami players old enough to remember Vanilla Ice actually being a thing.Vanilla Ice Project Season 4 premiered Maat 10PM on the DIY Network. Ice was performing “Ice Ice Baby” (because what other songs does he even have?) at the Miami Heat fan festival, and he was joined on stage by the 12-time All-Star, who danced along for a few seconds to a big ovation from the crowd. Still, no matter how loose and relaxed Wade is this season, no one would have expected to see him show up on stage with ’90s hip-hop sensation (and noted house flipper) Vanilla Ice, but here we are. His team is playing well, too, as the Heat are sitting at 40-29 and just a half game out of the three-seed in the East. Between shouting out his favorite TV commercials in post-game interviews, roasting his fellow NBA superstars, and sharing adorable moments with his son, D-Wade is having a good time. Dwyane Wade seems like he’s enjoying himself this season.
