Here’s what I learned about Rob Van Winkle today on Wikipedia. Of course, you posers may know him better as Vanilla Ice. Yeah, dat’s right.

• To The Extreme became the first #1 album in the US without a vinyl counterpart release.
• Van Winkle toured during 1990 with Alanis Morissette as his opening act. ALANIS MORISSETTE!!
• On July 4, 1994, Van Winkle attempted to commit suicide and made another attempt later that same year, citing drug abuse and anxiety surrounding his flagging career. Poor Ice Man.
