80′s rap star Vanilla Ice’s new reality show “The Vanilla Ice Project,” will follow him and his crew as he renovates a 7,000 square foot house in Palm Beach, Florida. Here’s what he had to say in an interview with the New York Times:
Are people surprised by your new career?
It’s funny, because it’s not a new career direction. I’ve been doing this for over 13 years.
I was building homes in Florida, from $300,000 to $1.5 million. The bottom dropped out of the real estate market, but I learned how to go to these seminars and read these books — Robert Shemin is one of my favorite authors. He’s a guy that I learned a lot from, by reading his books, about how to adjust to the market as it evolves. One of the adjustments was, O.K., now you can buy a foreclosed, or tax-lien or short-sale home for a lot less than you can build a home.
“I’ve been doing this for over 13 years…” is a code phrase for nobody really cared what I’ve been up to until these guys gave me this reality show. Will you be watching???
