Milli Vanilli was a pop duo assembled in the late 1980s by German music producer Frank Farian—the mastermind behind Boney M.—and fronted by dancers Rob Pilatus and Fab Morvan, who lip-synced to vocals recorded by session singers. The duo skyrocketed to fame with hits like “Girl You Know It’s True”, even winning a Grammy for Best New Artist in 1990. But their bubble burst when Farian revealed that they never sang on the tracks, leading to the unprecedented revocation of their Grammy and condemnation from fans and critics alike.If you think about it, they were kind of ahead of their time#truecrime #truestory #90s
