Vanilla Ice On Justin Bieber: 'He'll Be Forgotten'

Vanilla Ice obviously doesn't have Bieber Fever.
The one-time-chart-topper is convinced Justin Bieber's Baby will be forgotten, just like Ice's 1989 hit Ice Ice Baby.
"I mean, I did Ice Ice Baby when I was 16. So I can kind of relate a bit," Vanilla - real name Rob Van Winkle - told the Huffington Post.

"Sold over a hundred million records. And I had a weekend that lasted about three years, and I didn't know who I was, what's my purpose in life.
"So my prediction about Bieber is that he's going to go through one of those weekends that lasts a few years because he's had such success as a child act. You know, then something else new will come along and he'll be forgotten and he can try to put all the pieces back together, so it's going to be entertaining to watch."

Vanilla Ice, 43, speaks from experience.
Since his quick rise to fame, the Texas native has struggled for a spot in the limelight again, getting heavily involved in drug use, trying to take his own life and most recently, a failed marriage.

But so far Bieber's doing just fine, as the 17-year-old already has numerous number one hits and albums, his own 3D biopic, a perfume, his own nail polish line and a few acting credits under his belt.

Bieber is just another boy band type kid who will have another few good years and then start doing Indian Casino shows. Once this kid hits 20 or 21 his star will start to fade. Maybe Aaron Carter and Biebs should start a support group.

Ice couldn't be more right. The only exception for this type of thing has been Timberlake and he's a hell of a lot more talented than Bieber.

Reading the PAID Bieber ADVERTS of Radar is always amusing. Such GUSHING going on, is Radar's staff made up of 13 year old girls and gay guys?

What about Justin Timberlake, that's a whole different direction the beibs could take it. I think he could go either way, but w/ social media, over exposure & a celeb centric society makes it harder to fade away.

The Beibs will not become a one hit wonder, someone like Kesha has the potential to, she is more vanilla ice if anything

No way was Ice 16. Ice has always had this huger than normal ego and fake persona. Beiber plays every instrument sicne he was 6 and is a child prodigy. one little 1 hit wonder does not compare. I am sure this kids genius will cross into other areas
