"This hurricane is serious and coming right at me. I'm going to ride out the storm," he wrote on Thursday morning, promising to keep fans updated amid Florida Governor Rick Scott's warning that "This storm will kill you."

"Right now things are pretty calm, but you know what that means, the calm before the storm," Vanilla Ice, still inside his home, tweeted an hour later.

"Riders on the storm," he followed up as the storm neared. "I am right on the ocean in Palm Beach looking at evil darkness sky coming with the hurricane."

Judging by his tweets, Vanilla Ice cearly doesn't seem scared by the impending storm. Meanwhile, other stars took to the social media site to express their condolences to those affected in Haiti -- where Hurricane Matthew has left over 108 dead -- and others still in its path.
