Vanilla Ice was never cool
Im sorry but Im old enough to know that Vanilla Ice was not cool the first time around in fact he was just as bad if not worse than Melissa Tkautz. Maybe they should get together. Two tragic one hit wonders attempting to cash in on their former glories, they might be on to something. Dont know why samesame keeps promoting these pathetic has beens. Why dont they promote someone with some real cred for a change.
The whole glorification of anything retro over the past few years is nauseating. Everywhere you go theres 16-20 year olds celebrating the things that were bad enough the first time around let alone a second. One example Ive noticed is kids making a fashion statement by wearing t-shirts with 'punk' across them yet punk was so not about fashion and Im sure they dont even know what irony is.
Fair enough if something was good then yes lets look back and enjoy it again but the lack of selectivity about it is appalling. Wheres the new ideas, are the younger generation so stunted by too much tv and internet that they cant come up with anything new anymore? I mean Melissa Tkautz and Vanilla Ice, please give it break!
