No, the Spice Girls were worse!

No, neither "Vanilla Ice" or "Spice Girls" were the worst.  You guys may have hated them at the time they were around, but you have to admit that some of their songs are enjoyable to listen to (Guilty Pleasures)

I was more into Tiny Toons when Vanilla Ice was popular and was more into alternative (Beck, Foo Fighters) when Spice Girls polluted the airwaves.

Within my taste at the time, I would say Chumbawamba

No, he wasn't actually all that bad. Of all the artists in the 90's, no one can dethrone Marilyn Manson as the worst artist of the 90's

Vanilla Ice may be bad, but there are so many more that were worse:

Gerardo (Spanish rap anybody?)
Snow  (Incomprehensible Jamaican rap, sung by a white Canadian?)
Spice Girls (Some how "Talented Spice" failed the audition)
Backstreet Boys (Backdoor Boys)
Los Del Rio (I will never forgive them for giving us The Macarena)
Ricky Martin (Don't play that song, that achey-breaky song!)
Hanson (now be honest, how many here thought they were girls?)

Gerardo probably takes the cake as the Worst act of the 90's.  Snow had a good song in "Informer", it had a nice catchy tune.  Some of Spice Girls songs are kind of a Guilty Pleasures for me.  Backstreet Boys, I have no opinion on at all.  Los Del Rio, the Macarena was and is still repetitive.  Ricky Martin wasn't anything special.  Hanson had decent tunes, and yes, I used to think they were Cute Chicks

I may be a Guy, but atleast I have the Cahoneys to admit that I didn't mind the Spice Girls or Hanson  ::)

Garth Brooks since I can't stand country


Though the episode of "Celebrity Deathmatch" with Marilyn Manson was funny...though Hanson vs. Spice Girls was funnier

I also can't stand Marilyn Manson...


Britney Spears...who led the current trend of Lolita pop acts  :P


I recently saw a Vanilla Ice parody on "In Living Color" featurring Jim Carrey...  ;D  :D

Snow was pretty bad, but he got better as the 2000's came

The worst thign about Billy Ray Cyrus was that he still kept going even after Achy Breaky Heart.  In the early 2000s, he had a hit duet with Canadian country singer Adam Gregory called "When I Leave This House".  What a horrible song that was  ;D

When Vanilla Ice first came out with "Ice Ice Baby", it was a great song. He just went downhill after that. Not the worst.

Someone mentioned Snow "I skhake your boom boom down"... now he's a contender for worst  ;D He was such a nerd too!

No, not considering what was coming in the late 90s...um, britney spears, anyone?

Whilst I do detest Britney, her face, her nasal voice and most of her songs... she did do a couple of tracks which I did like... "Crazy", "Slave for You" and here's the embarrassing one "Sometimes"... only cos it reminds me of someone.

I had to give this some thought, but I had to vote "NO." That dubious honor would have to go to Limp Bizkit, which IMO is not only the sh!ttiest act of the 1990's, but perhaps in the entire history of popular music.

aqua, britney spears, there are plenty of other 90s artists who are far worse than Vanilla Ice, although I have to admit he was awful

No Mercy had three hits over here in the UK, thus tripling them in the dire stakes.
