Vanilla Ice has come to the defense of actor/comedian Adam Sandler after the film he helped write, The Ridiculous Six, came under fire after parts of the script were deemed offensive by a group of Native Americans on the set of the film.
According to XXLMag.com, Vanilla Ice spoke with TMZ to share his thoughts on the film, which he also stars in. The former rapper, who stated that he’s “part Choctaw Indian,” explained that the jokes were all for fun.
“It’s a comedy,” Vanilla Ice said. “I don’t think anybody really had any ill feeling or any intent or anything. This movie isn’t [Dances] With Wolves — it’s a comedy. They’re not there to showcase anything about anybody — they’re just making a funny movie…I am part Choctaw Indian, so I see both sides.”
The film reportedly includes characters with names like Beaver Breath and Sits-on-Face. Additionally, at one point in the film a male character is said to have stated the following to a female character: ”How about after this, we go someplace, and I put my peepee in your teepee?”
Vanilla Ice reportedly plays the role of Mark Twain in The Ridiculous Six, which will premiere on Netflix next year. Other entertainers slated to appear in the film include Steve Buscemi, Terry Crews, Luke Wilson, and David Spade.
Like it or not, Vanilla Ice is a Hip Hop legend. His performance in TMNT 2: Secret of the Ooze was legendary and no I’m not being sarcastic. Respect this man for all that he has accomplished.
People are too sensitive these days. If “Shallow Hal” were to come out today it would be terrorized to madness by the Anti Obesity defamation league and yanked from theaters. Same reason why society today makes Bullying out to be some end of the world crisis when previous generations were able to deal with and get the fuck over it. Modern Day America is 100% bitch made.
Bet if he said sum sideways shyt about blacks theyd be up in arms, nd if ur white jus sit in slience. You and ur race dont and can never understand.
Make that bet and you’d lose, I never cried about being “Offended” in my life.
Wheres the CIB card?
Yu white, ur claim to fame is being white?
So hop off the wanting to distance urself or make ur self unique tip, and quiet down whitey.
Haha….Beaver Breath or Sits-on Face….leave it to Adam!
why is everyone so fucking sensitive now adays..its a joke get the fuck over yourselves..its like white people are the only race who can take jokes being said about them in stride
FOH. Now Vanilla Lies is trying to imitate Yelawolf. He ain’t part Chocktaw. He is part stupid and part sucker though.
I saw another article and some of the script was overboard, but “peepee in teepee” is jus hilarious
vanilla ice is not a legend, natives don’t want to be parodied they want to be respected, and mitch is a covert bigot that’s why he doesn’t care
Adam Sandler always pokes fun at Natives, so I guess I don’t see the big deal?
Grew up on the klassic Sandler movies but this boyy been past his prime*stop giving this wash finance $*
