Milli Vanilli (/ˈmɪli vəˈnɪli/) was an R&B duo group from Munich, Germany, created in 1988 by the producer Frank Farian.[2] The duo consisted of Fab Morvan and Rob Pilatus.[3] Their debut album was All or Nothing in Europe and Girl You Know It's True in the United States. It achieved international success and brought them a Grammy Award for Best New Artist on 21 February 1990.[4] They became one of the most popular acts in the late-1980s and early-1990s, with seven million records sold in the United States alone, and approximately 30 million singles internationally.[5] Milli Vanilli attracted controversy when Farian announced that Morvan and Pilatus did not sing any of the vocals and lip-synced performances. Their vocals were instead provided by Brad Howell, John Davis[6] Charles Shaw, Jodie Rocco,[7] and Linda Rocco.[7][8] Their Grammy Award was revoked.[9][10][11] In 1998, they recorded the comeback album Back and in Attack, but its release was canceled when Pilatus died that year.[12]
