I m not gonna get dragged into that, Vanilla Ice told TMZ on Friday evening, after several fellow performers — who were announced for the event by Freedom 250 — either denied being involved or announced they would not be participating.
I m here to party with America, man, he continued. Music is made to bring people together, and that s what we re here to do, man. We re just gonna represent the 90s. I don t take anything too serious. I don t think anybody else should. I think we should just dance, you know? It s life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, and, you gotta get out and pursue it. With dance.
