Milli Vanilli were the subjects of an incredibly outdated controversy back in 1990, and the original corporate-created musicians.
The group was displayed as two guys, Fab Morvan and Rob Pilatus, but since those two were good-looking but completely untalented they were told to just sing along to pre-recorded shit and pretend it was theirs. To be fair the pair were being total dumbasses ; they were given an advance when they were hired, they wasted it all on shiny shit and dreadlocks, and according to their contract unless they could repay it they were stuck doing whatever the fuck their manager wanted. The two were reported to have had shitty English at the time of their first single, so it was just a wonder that no-one noticed right away.
Frank Farian thought up the concept, and picked Charles Shaw, John Davis, Brad Howell, and twin sisters Jodie and Linda Rocco for the vocals. That worked well until people noticed that Morvan and Pilatus were lip-syncing and Farian admitted to just putting it all together.
They had their Grammy taken back in the 90s when it was revealed that they were just a pair of untalented niggers dancing around to pre-recorded shit, and pretty much fell off the map after that, making the fact that someone took the time to make this article in 2014 absolutely pathetic.
They got sued like 27 times for fraud, so Farian tried to change their new album back to the original singers, but as predicted, the real singers didn't have a good public image and it flopped hard.
