Although less frequently requested, the following might be considered, also.
- A non-performance personal appearance.
An example would be to hire a celebrity to attend a private or corporate party as simply a (non-performing) guest to mingle with other guests, or to hire the celebrity to do a meet-and-greet at your party.
- A virtual performance.
A virtual performance is a live or recorded show—such as a concert, play, dance, comedy act, or other artistic presentation—that is broadcast or streamed online instead of being performed in front of a physical audience. Artists perform live from a studio, venue, or even their homes and stream the show on platforms like YouTube, Twitch, or Instagram Live. Essentially, a virtual performance brings entertainment to audiences through the internet rather than in-person venues.

Vanilla Ice Biography
aka: Robert Matthew Van Winkle
Based in: Florida
Based in: Miami
Robert Matthew Van Winkle, known professionally as Vanilla Ice, is an American rapper, actor, and television host.
Born in South Dallas, and raised in Texas and South Florida, Ice released his debut album, Hooked, in 1989 on Ichiban Records, before signing a contract with SBK Records, a record label of the EMI Group, which released a reformatted version of the album in 1990 under the title To the Extreme, which became the fastest-selling hip-hop album of all time and contained Ice’s best-known hits: “Ice Ice Baby” and a cover of “Play That Funky Music”. “Ice Ice Baby” was the first hip-hop single to top the Billboard charts and has been credited with helping to diversify hip-hop by introducing it to a mainstream audience.

As of the late 2000s, Ice’s live performances feature a mix of newer, rock and techno-influenced material and old-school hip-hop. Ice performs with a live drummer and DJ, and sometimes he sprays his audience with bottled water. Ice’s performances often feature an inflatable grim reaper balloon, a dancer in a clown mask, and confetti thrown into the audience. Describing his performances, Ice stated, “It’s high energy, stage diving, pyrotechnics, and girls showing their breasts. It’s a crazy party atmosphere.”
Vanilla Ice stated that his musical style was influenced by underground music, rather than mainstream music, and that his influences included hip-hop and funk artists such as Funkadelic, Rick James, Roger Troutman, Egyptian Lover, and Parliament. Ice is a big fan of 50’s and 60’s reggae and Bob Marley’s work, and he has also stated that he enjoys Rage Against the Machine, Slipknot, and System of a Down.

Ice sometimes plays bass, drums, and keyboards on studio recordings. Vanilla Ice referred to his mainstream music as “above-ground” rather than underground, as he tried to make danceable beats and remove expletives so that the songs could reach a wider audience. A lot of his early hits had Ice boasting sexual conquests; in 1991, Ice was quoted “I rap about what I know. Girls and stuff. That’s what is going through my head.”
Hits include:
- Play That Funky Music
- Ice Ice Baby
- I Love You
- Cool As Ice (Everybody Get Loose)
- Rollin’ In My 5.0
- Satisfaction
His discography includes six studio albums, two compilation albums, one live album, one remix album, and 25 singles.

How is the fee of Vanilla Ice determined?
✅ Vanilla Ice fee determination
Vanilla Ice’s manager determines the artist’s concert fee (also known as a guarantee) by evaluating a combination of business, market, and logistical factors.
Here’s a breakdown of key elements considered:
1. Vanilla Ice’s Popularity and Demand
-
Ticket Sales History: How many tickets they’ve sold recently in the same market or similar ones.
-
Streaming & Radio Metrics: Spotify/Apple Music numbers, YouTube views, Shazam stats, radio spins.
-
Social Media Following & Engagement: Followers, reach, and how active and loyal the fan base is.
2. Market Strength
-
City or Region: Artists can command higher fees in cities where they are more popular.
-
Venue Size: Bigger venues mean more ticket sales and higher potential revenue.

Local Competition: Is the artist competing with other events nearby on the same date?
3. Vanilla Ice Touring Expenses

Band & Crew Payroll: Salaries, per diems, union rates.
-
Production Costs: Lights, sound, transportation, backline, hotel, security, etc.
-
Travel: Flights, buses, fuel, lodging. Fees are often higher for more distant or logistically complex locations.
4. Type of Event
-
Hard Ticket Show: The artist is the main draw; ticket sales drive revenue. The fee is based on expected gross revenue minus expenses.
-
Festival or Fair: Often pay higher flat fees as the event assumes ticket risk.
-
Corporate or Private Event: Typically, higher pricing due to exclusivity and often minimal promotional benefit.
5. Promoter Offer and Negotiation

-

-
Guarantee (flat fee): Minimum the artist gets paid.

-
Expenses: Travel, accommodations, hospitality, etc.
6. Comparing Fees
-
Managers often compare fees of similar-level artists to stay competitive in pricing.
7. Vanilla Ice Routing Considerations
-
If the date fits smoothly into a larger tour routing, they might accept a lower fee.
-
If it’s a one-off or out-of-the-way show, the fee might be higher to justify the extra time and effort.
