Vanilla Ice is leaving the Dancing With the Stars competition, but hey, at least he got to dance to "Ice Ice Baby."

"We did 'Ice Ice Baby' so I'm good, I'm happy," he told E! News with his partner Witney Carson nearby.

"She's taught me a lot, she's been a trooper," he said. "It's been an amazing experience."

Vanilla Ice said he'll continue dancing because "dancing is happiness." And despite never seeing Dancing With the Stars, he said he's leaving the show as a huge fan now.
