Apr 11 2008Vanilla Ice arrested for domestic battery

0411_vanilla_ice_mugshot_00.JPG

Vanilla Ice (Real name: Robert Van Winkle) was arrested last night at his home after he got into an argument with his wife and allegedly shoved her, according to TMZ:

Vanilla Ice is still in custody at Palm Beach County Jail. Palm Beach County Sheriff's tell TMZ that in most cases, people arrested for domestic violence are usually held over to see a judge. Looks like Mr. Van Winkle will spend a night in the pokey.

I dunno, does that look like the face of a spousal abuser to you? I mean, if you ignore the eyes, ear, mouth, hair, beard and the fact that it's Vanilla Ice.

Judging by how he acted in The Surreal Life, I am really not surprised. In that pic he looks either really happy to have been arrested, or drunk as a skunk!

haha

He needs to be arrested for that dumbass haircut....


.

Your honor, I'd like to introduce into evidence.... his participation in The Surreal Life. Seriously, is his 15 minutes up yet, or what??

Is it just me, or does he have the Paris Hilton wonk eye?


.

He kinda has wife-beater cheeks going on there.

He is smiling because someone is taking his picture instead of just pointing and laughing.

CLEARLY SHE NEEDED TO HAVE SOME SENSE KNOCKED INTO HER. I MEAN, LOOK AT WHO SHE MARRIED?

I still love Ice Ice Baby, period.

Yeah, she probably deserved it

A glimmer of goodlooks swapped in an awful hair cut and weird expression.

Aaaaahhhh... that wonky eyed, one half open look... the true mark of any serious pothead.

Nice bangs, dude. I can't believe I used to totally crush over this guy; even went to see him in concert when he was in his prime.....oooohhhyyeeeeaaaah. My how he's fallen. I gotta say though, he hasn't had an easy life, after his initial success. He can never seem to live down the vanilla ice thing; poor guy can't get a break. But I suppose he is kind of a douche. Maybe he can hit it big again and come back as rap star Lil' nutsack (sorry, just saw the movie "Walk Hard, the Dewey Cox story" and am still chuckling at that part).

Does anyone else find this as stupid. The dude gets arrested for SHOVING!!
I mean WTF. You are married for godsake. He SHOVES his penis in her at least one a year (keep in mind they are married). Maybe if he took a sledgehammer to your head and cracked it open like a coconut, but arrest for SHOVING that is just fucking stupid. I would divorce her after that.

@14 Renee I just saw that movie for the first time two nights ago too, and that remix was possibly the best part of the whole movie. Satiric genius, I say!

Wow...that's some haircut.

Hail Caesar!

Mrs Vanilla: My back hurts! What should I put on it?
Vanilla: Ice, ice, baby.

Thank you, I'll be here all week.

#18-ouch.


Did you guys ever hear that 911 tape recording of the old man who shot his wife and then calmly called 911? It was hilarious!

Cora- he IS a humor guy! He is to be making many humors and being great in tallness! He often is saying so funny jokes. He is famous with many hot models and has intimacies with many.

You caught that too? I hope Wonky eye isn't contagious, but in his defense his bitch really doesn't listen too well. It all started when they were rolling in his 5.0 and he wanted his top down so his hair could flow, but she wanted it up. That's it in a nutshell.

Why is this douche bag still relevant?

I THOUGHT HE WAS A "ONE HIT" WONDER

Ice Ice baby - to go - to go.
Looks like the dude serving french fries at the drive thru.....

Kevin Federline: welcome to your future.

LOL @ 22 - right on mrs. t!

Want to know what 75,000 battered women have in common?

........THEY JUST WOULDN'T FUCKING LISTEN!!!!!!!!!

Hey NIPOLIAN - what does a battered wife do as soon as she gets home from the emergency room?

.....THE DISHES, IF SHE KNOWS WHAT'S GOOD FOR HER!


HA Ha Ha HA!


It looks like someone has punched him in the eye.

What do you tell a woman with two black eyes?

Nothing, you already told the bitch twice.....

@16; amen! Such a silly movie; but a bunch of goodies in there too. I also love the part where Tim Meadows (?) keeps mentioning drugs, and the lack of payment... Won't elaborate here because I don't want to ruin it for anyone else that wants to see the movie.


What have you done wrong when you wife comes out of the kitchen and starts nagging you?


made the chain too long.

If you're interested in learning more about domestic abuse, I suggest:

The more you know *cue shooting star across screen*

#22 NIce, mrs. t. Do they have these many initmacies of height positively? (How many of these fucking lame-name sites is this guy have his boat people relatives promoting?)

What do you do when your dishwasher breaks?

You hit her.

It looks like Lloyd Christmas finally got that chipped tooth fixed.

@ 32 or when he says "you don't want none of this shit, Dewey! It's non-habit forming!" I'm so glad I started watching that with such low expectations, unlike with SuperBad...

He's killing his wife's brain like a poisonous mushroom while cooking MC's like a pound of bacon.

Oh Please, that is so fucking stupid. How the hell can you have someone arrested for shoving you. That's got to be a load of crap. This has got to the most pussified wimpified nertified stupified generation ever.

Hell if he shoves you bitch shove him back, or wait tll he goes to sleep and shave off that goatee.

Don't you just love these guys who go on and on and on about how much they respect women because they have daughters (like this doof did on The Surreal Life) and then turn around and assault their daughters' mothers? Beautiful. Now his little girls might get the idea that it's acceptable for their husbands to assault them one day.

What the fuck is wrong with you fucking men that you can't just walk out of a room during an argument?

Upon shoving her to the floor, he was heard to exclaim: "DROP THAT ZERO AND GET WITH THE HERO!!!"

Wow. The overwhelming sensitivity of the loser men on this site who are pissed that they haven't been laid for twelve years and therefore don't have a wife to beat senseless - is just staggering. If any of you were my fucking husband (and thank goodness I have the sense to a) not get married and b) not marry a loser who thinks beating women is funny) - trust me, dears, you would NOT want to close your eyes at nighttime.

@42
HA! The he started tap dancing on her face humming "da da da da dadada"

End the War! Vote Democrat!

50,000 Americans died in the Vietnam war, a war that could not be won like Iraq.

4,000+ Americans have already died in the Iraq war. Let's not wait until 50,000 Americans die before deciding to end the war.

Here is a perfect example of why the US should end the war in Iraq.

In the 1980s, Libya increasingly distanced itself from the West, and was accused of committing mass acts of state sponsored terrorism. When evidence of Libyan complicity was discovered in the Berlin discotheque terrorist bombing that killed two American servicemen, the United States responded by launching an aerial bombing attack against targets near Tripoli and Benghazi in April 1986.

In 1991, two Libyan intelligence agents were indicted by federal prosecutors in the U.S. and Scotland for their involvement in the December 1988 bombing of Pan Am flight 103. Six other Libyans were put on trial in absentia for the 1989 bombing of UTA Flight 772. The UN Security Council demanded that Libya surrender the suspects, cooperate with the Pan Am 103 and UTA 772 investigations, pay compensation to the victims' families, and cease all support for terrorism. Libya's refusal to comply led to the approval of UNSC Resolution 748 on March 31, 1992, imposing sanctions on the state designed to bring about Libyan compliance. Continued Libyan defiance led to further sanctions by the UN against Libya in November 1993.

In 2003, more than a decade after the sanctions were put in place, Libya began to make dramatic policy changes in regard to the Western world with the open intention of pursuing a Western-Libyan détente. The Libyan government announced its decision to abandon its weapons of mass destruction programs and pay almost 3 billion US dollars in compensation to the families of Pan Am flight 103 as well as UTA Flight 772.

The decision was welcomed by many western nations and was seen as an important step for Libya toward rejoining the international community. Since 2003 the country has made efforts to normalize its ties with the European Union and the United States and has even coined the catchphrase, 'The Libya Model', an example intended to show the world what can be achieved through negotiation rather than force when there is goodwill on both sides.


#43 - What dosn't belong in this sequence?

Dog, blowjob, meat, wife

Answer: blowjob

Because you can beat your dog, you can beat your wife, and you can beat your meat, but nothing beats a blowjob.

#17 - that is a perfect description - "Hail Ceasar" - hahaha, you crack me up - thanks for the laugh to start my day

@38; no kidding. Superbad, well, let's just say the name wasn't too far off, and yeah, maybe my expectations were waaay too high (as w/ Knocked Up). But I had super low expectations with "Dewey", and thought I was right for the first 20 minutes or so...but then it really took off. Ok, I can't take it anymore, I gotta say it......"and you never once paid for drugs...not once!"...So many good one liners in this movie, it isn't even funny!

What do you say to a woman with two black eyes?


Nothing, she's been told twice already.

#49 - According to #31, you're as late as your mother's period the week after she had that drunken gangbang, which resulted in you.

#15 what's up v-ice? how'd you get interent access in the tank? got any other lame arguments to back yourself up with...like i dunno, how being a wife-shover is super cool. you should probably use a frying pan next time...get in close for that headshot.

dumb fucker.

#49-Wanna know what else got told twice already?

That joke.

#50-In the future I will defer to you when someone needs to be taken to school.

And now I'm bid you all Good Day, as I will spend the remainder volunteering in my kids' actual school.

Nice mugshot grin you got going there douchefucker. I bet his publicist recommended a little domestic violence to keep him in the news.

Good job dude, no publicity is bad publicity.

Van Winkle ? Are you fukkin kidding me ? Say hi to your Uncle Rip, douchebag ...

Moe called ... he wants his haircut back.

Have to put in my own two cents about his hair. Is he that broke that he has to cut it himself? Maybe his wife cut it & that's why he shoved her. She deserved worse by the looks of it.

Is he starring: "DUMB and DUMBER"?
REMEMBER?

AM I the only person here who doesn't think shoving is grounds for domestic abuse? I mean COME ON!

#25

that was the best line ever

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...............................................................(inhale)
HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.....................................(inhale)

Ahhhhhhhh................... "Ice-Ice-THIS Baby" you half wit-one hit-wonder boy

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA..............................................

50,000 battered women in this country, and I'm still eatin mine plain

I am a tiny woman and I can fight for myself. In a way I think many battered women are enablers. They stay in an abusive relationship when they could call the cops or learn to fight or defend themselves with a women. I AM TIRED OF WOMEN AS VICTIMS it embarrasses me for my gender. and it demeans abuse if merely pushing someone can send them to jail.

As for Darfur .. drop a bunch of AK47s and show them women how to shoot! The special forces have been doing that for years

Will he ever stop ? (beating his wife)

yo I don't know...

Hey Lloyd, try your burger..

A white trailor trash wiggger arrested for wife beating, whaaaaaa? Wait, wait, wait... a guy whose life uniform is a wife beater and oversized beer stained pants/ or beer stained pj bottoms or beer stained sweats or stanky old boxers (basically anything that goes with a wife beater) a guy like that is being charged with domestic battery (ie carrying out the mission statement of his undershirt)????

That's fucking unbelievable. Completely fucking ironic. I mean way to absolutely obliterate a stereotype. This guy, i mean WOW he's just fucking full of suprises. What a character, what a unique and unusual character.


Oh and #25. You are a genius (seriously).

#45 - WE MUST STAY THE COURSE, DON'T YOU KNOW THAT? BESIDES, IT'S THE DEMOCRATS TURN TO SEE HOW MUCH $$$$$ THEY CAN MAKE OFF THIS THING WHEN THEY WIN THE WH IN NOVEMBER. SHARE THE WEALTH, YOU KNOW?

#22 - Mrs.tee hee

I hear he also playing is with many friends on bluemin gle.c om. Many smurfs say he is playing there. He is humour so sexy there for many fans! Is he looking for Papa Smurf, or just playing?

Well you know, he was under pressure. Sorry, someone had to say it.

Looks more like pinkeye than wonk-eye...

why does his eyelid look like that?

creeeeeepy.

I'm surprised no one on any site has pointed out his dopehead pupils. This guy is totally buggin, prolly on OxyContin.

The lights are pretty bright in booking, which could explain his constricted pupils. Also, only retarded trailer trash still haven't figured out that heroin wtfpwns other opiates. Oh, wait, right.

that wasn't NICE NICE BABY!!!

#65. Wow Lola you know nothing about abusive situations. I was raised in one and I have since worked to help women get out of them, it certainly is not simple as you make it out to be. The abuse often starts out very very slowly until the woman is a shell of her former self, it's a form of brainwashing. The man is often very charming and can even have very nice sides. The abuser will usually alienate the woman from her friends and family so it's very hard for her to reach out. Of course it's wrong to stay, but it's so common because the situation literally warps the person. Stockholm syndrome often occurs and the woman starts to feel worthless, like she deserves the abuse and the abuser often threatens to kill family members or friends if she leaves (and some follow through on the threats). Also abusers seek women who have low self esteem or who are very vulnerable (perhaps a family member has died or they have gone through something traumatic and are easy prey), it's a form of torture and manipulation that leaves the victim feeling powerless. The police are often useless and until the abuser has beaten the woman into a coma they really can't do all that much to keep him away form her or protect her. Besides all he needs is to violate a restraining order once to kill the woman or her family and it happens fairly often. You don't go to jail for years for battery so the woman never feels safe. My mother had to hatch an escape plan, but in order to keep friends and family safe she had to be very careful. I don't judge her, she was a victim of horrible atrocities and I am proud of what she accomplished. She built a new life and a new career and is an incredible success, but to suggest she was at fault is simply ignorant. Abused women are simply terrified and so warped from the abuse, most of them love the man in a twisted way because people aren't black and white they are complicated and relationship have history and times of happiness which the abuser uses fully to their advantage.
Even children who have been kidnapped and abused sometimes stay, out of fear and out of having their self esteem and confidence beaten out of them.

Now I've stayed far away from abuse in my life, but I would never judge a woman in those shoes I simply feel compassion for them.
It's really not something you can judge especially if you have no experience in the matter. If you have not seen a person beaten until the floor is covered n blood or seen an abuser pull out a gun and threaten to kill the woman and her whole family, or seen a person be imprisoned in their own home and regularly called every name in the book then you really can't judge or presume to understand the affects of abuse.

It takes years to recover from abuse to regain your sense of self and the abuser rules through fear, threats, intimidation and good old fashion destruction, destruction of a person's life and sense of self. You can come out from under it but to act like its easy is ridiculous.

I don't know any experienced intelligent person who isn't highly aware of the short comings of the police and the justice system itself.

The only thing that I consider an embarrassment to my gender is women who show no compassion and are horribly judgmental and completely uninformed and ignorant, that and Paris Hilton (which if you think about it are fairly similar anyway).

He had a nice chiseled face...
Yeah he was hot, but his music was not.
He's ugly now, and his music still sucks, and his face is ugly now.

Informer, you know I was to blame, I lick your boom boom down.

Or however he used to sing it.

not a bad mug shot. probably the best one in a while. he looks a little stoned or something, but not so bad. everyone bags ont he guy, but back in the day we all danced to his music. it still gets played.

#77, i didn't read your op-ed column, but i think you just attempted to engage in serious discourse on a celebrity blogsite. clearly you're insane and should be ignored. i'm so glad i didn't read your post...phew!

29,30 and 31:i hope your mom/sister/girlfriend gets punched to death.then you can laugh about domestic battery

83: What an awful thing to wish upon someone. If you're trying to hint at something or be cryptic or what ever, just fucking say it instead of hoping bad things will happen to other people, because they made a joke.

Mmmmm, it seems he is very interested in dating wealthy young guys. I saw him on "SeekingRich.com" yesterday.

This guy is nothing more than a has-been with a bad temper.I saw him on Surreal Life and I am not a bit surprised.He's freaking nuts!!!I hope his wife has a brain in her head and dumps his sorry ass!!!

Deal Anal (#82),

A discourse is communication that goes back and forth (from the Latin, discursus, "running to and from"), such as debate or argument and would suggest I gave a FUCK about their response. I didn’t want a response and I would not have read one. I cannot debate with the mentally deficient degenerates on this site, but I can set them straight and shove some facts, logic and reason up their tight little assholes.
If you read the comment I was responding to you’d see the person was not joking around, but was actually serious in their misguided idiocy. I consider it a charitable action to help educate the ignorant and useless members of society since their lethal stupidity is such a danger to themselves and others.

Thank you and happy fistings.

(remember all the classy girls are doing it)

He always seemed like white trash to me

Everyone who is arrested on a domestic battery charge is automatically given a 0 bond so they can't bond out of jail The reason being that it gives them a cool down period while they are in the pokey. They see the judge the next day and a bond is set. If its his first domestic battery charge he'll most likely be ROR'ed (released on own Recognisance) or given a minimal bond.

Omg he pushed her. What a freakin wimp she is.

#83 - You just gave me wood. Do you like Chinese food? Have you ever seen "Slap Happy"? Does the term irrumatio mean anything to you?

I read the page from the bottom up, so my first reaction to his picture was "Who the hell is this?" Then, I saw his name in the headline & my second reaction was "Vanilla Ice? Still alive?!!"

Well, not only is the guy who sampled & therefore destroyed Under Pressure alive, he's also an abusive son of a bitch. Robert van Winkle? Robert van Wanker, more like. Ugh.
