My friend is going on a date with a guy who claims to be the body double of Vanilla Ice in the 1991 blockbuster, Cool as Ice. At first I thought she was teasing me, because nothing could be quite so delicious and amazing, but she has a picture to prove it. However, I promised I wouldn’t share it. I can only leave you with the clip. My friend from Mostly Semantics and I have questions.
Question 1: Why haven’t I seen this film? It was loosely based on Rebel Without A Cause, stars Namoi Campbell, also features Deezer D, and the dad from Family Ties.
Question 2: I never noticed that Cool as Ice has a lyric, “all the gays are amazed.” Does he know what he’s saying? Are we supposed to think that he’s so cool as ice, even the gays are amazed? Is he cracking an easy joke on them?
Question 3: What could possibly be better than being Vanilla Ice’s body double?
