Justin Bieber Gets Unsolicited Advice From Vanilla Ice On Top Of Everything Else
Justin Bieber can now add one more voice to the growing cast of parents that he seems to have acquired. Who? I hear you ask. Why, its Vanilla Ice.
Yes, Vanilla Ice.
In addition to Will Smiths slam on the medias waron Bieber, his wifes blasting of press bullying, will.i.am, Liam Tomlinson, Jessie J and Chris Browns recent declarations of support for the embattled singer now Ice himself wades into the debate.
Speaking to GQabout all the hugely interesting things hes doing now, Ice or, Robert Van Winkle, which is almost inconceivably worse had this to say about young Biebers ongoing bad press.
Ive known [Bieber] for a while, Ice reveals, surprisingly. Hes a good kid and hes got great people around him. The bad thing is, theyre not always going to be around. Theres a transition from being a kid to being an adult, and hes never had that. Concerts every night, autograph signings, endorsements, and so on. Thats not what real life is about.
I dont think Justins listening to too many people these days, the underrated ex-rapper continued. Hes gotta learn his purpose. When the snow globe thats been rattled up his whole life settles, its Where am I as an adult? and Where do I fit in?
For those that have been more concerned with min! or items like the threat of nuclear war and shifting tectonics of world economics, a brief recap of Biebers recent missteps, includes:
Battery allegations by his Calabasas, California neighbor, an expletive-filled row with a British paparazzo, the forcible quarantining of his new pet monkey, persistent shirtlessness, a reported ban from a Vienna nightclub I could go on. Essentially it all adds up to not quite an Oasis tour but not High School Musical either.
Of Biebers well documented antipathy towards the paparazzi, Ice who rode the fame train at the tender age of 23 with his seminal opus Ice Ice Baby offers this insight:
If [Bieber] hits the paparazzi, thats gonna be on the news tonight. If he releases a new record, I dont know. And you have to pay for that advertisement! Hell be alright. Hes got some stuff to go through. Hopefully he wont go too far.
Anyone else think the Bieber Bad Boy debate is losing a sense ofperspective?
