OT -- Early 90s, Represent!!!

Does it get any more early-90s than Arsenio Hall interviewing Vanilla Ice?

 

Arsenio Hall interviews Vanilla Ice about MC Hammer (via zoombots)


Some of you young 'uns probably don't appreciate how awesome this clip is.

I think my favorite part is when Arsenio Hall does this "I'm not afraid to be controversial and have people not like me" bit, given what a suck-up he always was...

That outfit that Van Winkle is wearing...

so awesomely awesome.

Oh the days when a Hammer/Vanilla Ice feud was worth talking about. Better times those days, better times…

There were never days

when that was worth talking about.

Arsenio...

...what a douche. Unfortunately he didn’t become insignificant nearly as fast as V-Ice… but he should have.

Right around the time all the young talent is ready to contend is when the organization will realize that Ron Washington is the wrong man for the job.

Coming to America

I thought Arsenio was funny in that.

But, Arsenio is no Magic Johnson when it comes to the talk show circuit.

He was good in Coming to America, but...

...that’s really just about it as far as I’m concerned.

My eyebrow looks just like his

Of course, mine was the result of a knife fight. With Vanilla Ice. For stealing my trapeze costume.

I'm too young to remember the show

But I have defiantly seen that clip. God bless the Internet.

Vanilla Ice

Loved him when I was in Junior High, but the best was when he tried to reinvent himself as a Hard Rock artist by singing….............. that’s right; “Ice, Ice, Baby”, same lyrics, different sound (kinda Pantera-ish)

down to PKs

i don’t like this, let them play all night. A championship decided by PKs?? Weak sauce.

I hate it when a championship goes to pks…like last years world cup.

i watched

out of curiosity mostly.
ronaldo is a bad bad man, but he screwed the pooch on the PK

ending a championship game on penalty kicks is just effing dumb

saw the second half

Then had to go back to work. Sounds like an intense game that turned ugly toward the end. These two teams really hate each other.

One of my favorite shows ever...

was “In Living Color”.

I used to love it when Keenan Ivory Wayans (the only funny Wayans brother besides Damon) would do his “Arsenio Hall” show. Damn I miss the early 90’s.

man...spring 2000....

Some of my frat buddies and I picked him up after he flew in to Houston to play a concert in Huntsville for us. He was really laid back and could talk forever, mostly about himself. It was just him and his dj because his guitar player & drummer got put in rehab a few days before… You’d be suprised how many girls wanted a piece of him, for reasons I still don’t know or want to know…

I was just thinking

about teasing my 4 year old nephew about his singing ice, ice baby all the time back when it was out.

We just took that same nephew to Vegas because he is legally allowed to gamble now.

That was so damn long ago.
