Milli Vanilli Press Conference on November 20, 1990

Robert Pilatus and Fabrice Morvan explain the Milli Vanilli story during a press conference in 1990.

[@VanquishMediaDE]

I am not saying what the did was right but given that they were young and poor and struggling I understand why they did what they did, they just wanted to succeed and become famous. They did not sell drugs or hurt anyone they just lip synced some songs.

[@Valiumtino71]

And today it's the standard to lipsynch

[@angelsigemori8692]

totally agree !

[@chinwenduchinwe586]

@Van... True, to have people believe you are singing when someone else is singing is wrong. But, it was not what they EVER wanted but it was what that crooked producer frank farian wanted. Because of Frank's music reputation, they trusted him and signed a contract they didn't read; that were a few pages presented to them but deceitfully added to more they knew nothing about. They were straight manipulated, and tricked into a monetary obligation situation they could not pay back. That frank took advantage of all Rob and Fab's lacks as youth and used them...to use them both. Being so young and put into this type of horrible trap...that producer frank was the mastermind but he bought people off to make sure Rob and Fab were blamed alone. That is wrong beyond so many wrongs.

If they would initially said that you were just performing, would you still have been so successful? In any case ! Both of them could dance and entertain perfectly and they were also so good-looking, especially Rob, a mix of German and American with blue eyes Girl crush of the 80s It's a real shame that the two were marketed like that Both could have become world stars with sufficient vocal coaching It's a shame for Rob that this ruined him so much Rip Rob 💔 🕊️

These two young talented young men had a dream. Frank is a snake. He took complete advantage. Neither could barely speak English. Fab signed a contract that was written in German. Fab didn't speak German or understand it. Neither had legal representation. Worse the contract was signed for three years. They didn't know until after they had signed the contract that they wouldn't be allowed to sing. Both of them could sing, dance, had killer moves and great stage presence. This cost of precious life (Rob). A life. And Frank never suffered one consequence he is a millionaire or a billionaire. I will always love Mili Vanilli.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

That must be the biggest nightmare you can imagine. From one day to the next, you lose everything you had ... in the eyes of the world. At that moment, all you really want to do is die because there's nowhere left to hide. Yes, Rob & Fab made mistakes, but there were a lot of people behind the scenes who also cashed in, but were able to walk away. It's ludicrous to think that these two guys orchestrated the whole thing. Everyone involved with Milli Vanilli knew what they were getting into.

[@millivanilliRF]

Exactly, I agree. Losing everything in public leaves marks. They didn’t deserve this.

[@CelesteKTheNewWaveRevue]

It hurt them a lot. Fans were suing them left and right. And they gave back the Grammy because they didn't sing on the album.

Most of the general public doesn’t understand how the music industry works and this happened right while they were still very popular. It was convenient for Clive Davis and Frank Farian that Rob & Fab would be the scapegoats.

Fab & Rob have been exploited and used. There is also a Biopic/Movie which is out here in Germany right nowe in Cinemas, its very sucessfull and its bund to come out internationally also. The Movie is called Milli Vanilli - Girl u Know its True" Its very well done and Fab and Robs Sister gave their Blessing and support the Movie. Its shines light on how it all was. Fab is still performing and does very well and he is amzing.

[@dramzv]

We all make mistakes at a young age, and their mistake was signing a contract with Frank Farian, who orchestrated the whole thing and simply move on with his career, without reading it completely. Unfortunately the consequences of their mistake could never be repaired even after admitting wrong-doing, apologizing and begging for a second chance performing with their real voices: none of that gave them back the money or Grammy award, it didn't return the respect from the media, it didn't cure Rob Pilatus from a severe depression that led him to addiction and subsequent problems with the law, and especially it will never bring Rob back to life.

[@millivanilliRF]

Exactly. That is the sad reality.

[@juliagulia3414]

Fab & Rob did an amazing job given the circumstances. Rob tried so hard to explain and to shed light but the press were savages!! The guys were being eaten alive when Artista, Frank, Clive etc. should have been the ones GRILLED!!!

[@RocStarr913]

That was never going to happen. Farian and Davis were behind the scenes and had a lot of power and unfortunately for Rob & Fab, they were in the front lines.

[@OtomoTenzi]

I am so proud of Rob and Fab! These 2 brave guys came out to the world and spoke the HONEST TRUTH about how and why they were scammed/jacked by some corrupt music producers... Even despite all of the threats and lawsuits they have received. You really gotta give 'em a great amount of respect and credit just for being so brave and honest like that! These men can not only sing and dance EXTREMELY WELL, but they truly represent just how COOL and SEXY late 80s/early 90s musicians should be like. You can no longer see anybody like them on the streets anymore. The way they dressed, the way they talked, and their gentlemen-like, polite European mannerisms (even the way they moved) are just on a whole other entire different level compared to today's modern-day FAILURES and DISASTERS. I know it is important to first learn how to love yourself, before learning how to love others; but FUCK today's people and FUCK their style of music in general!

If i were to make half a billion dollars on record sales as Farian did, a little scandal here and a little scandal there where two models without brains would be the fall guys of it... Damn right i would do it.

[@leon4000]

​​@@clopper3753 The biggest issue with all of this is the fact that the news media world-wide had enough peoples' attention, so a lot of people believed Rob and Fab were frauds without question. Even after the press conference, the damage had been done to a major amount. Rob and Fab hung in there as long as they could, but they weren't seeing any success after the scandal. Rob's own adoptive family had cut ties to him after said scandel as well, which kicked Rob's psyche into drugs and alcohol to dull his internal pain. This is on Frank Farian for suckering those boys into a false promises and trapping them into contract that didn't allow them to sing at all. People believes and assume that Rob and Fab were willingly a part of it, but missed the fact that they either had to do the contract or pay up big time when they didn't have much money and/or an attorney when they first signed on. Some people judge to quickly to understand events behind the scenes.

[@Samson-cr3ly]

​@@clopper3753to say they were without brains is a slap in the face. They were young, naive, and ignorant to the "music business", and how cut throat it is. All they wanted was an opportunity to showcase their talent. All Farian wanted was an opportunity to manipulate another artist(s) for his own gain. If you listen to Fabs side of the story, they were manipulated into working off the debt they had accumulated after signing the contract for a three album deal. They were seduced and trapped. Not saying they didn't play a role, but they were not the main ones orchestrating this entire fraud.

True tragedy. They were insanely talented and everyone took advantage of them. They were fantastic dancers and performers and had true star appeal and charisma. Things you cannot learn. What you can learn though, is singing. (Fab actually was a decent singer and rapper already) They just needed vocal coaching and time. But Farian and everyone around them wanted fast success and money. It’s a shame how Rob and Fab were the only ones who suffered from this scandal big time. And Rob never recovered.

Heck the narrative in most of their song titles suggested a fraud. "It's true", yeah. Vanilla flavor most of the time contains no real vanilla and is entirely faked. They were dressing up as pirates. One guy was a frenchmen speaking no english, and he was supposed to be capable of rapping. Even the fact that the photographies of them were just too good, more like art shots than music act promotion was just too fishy. This is a fairytale gone bad. They were supposed to entertain the German music market which is a bit of Lala-Land anyways as the german public tv is mostly for geezers. When they made it to the US and the US music industry clearly went along with the scheme (which is just too stupid to be not found out). Then the relationship between Farian and these guys broke apart of which both are at fault. Farian didn't let them sing. They didn't want to stay calm for a while, which is what Farian wanted. No one was able to say no to the money.

[@millivanilliRF]

It’s not as simple as that. Rob and Fab signed a contract and it was only after they realized that the producer wanted them to lipsync. They refused and had to pay back the money the producer gave them every month. They were poor and could not pay back because they had used the money. So they were forced to continue. High fives, the dance, the show, all the entertainment…. were part of the contract. And they did a good job entertaining the whole world, even though they didn’t sing. « don't judge a man until you have walked a mile in his shoes »

[@jqscooby2684]

I don't believe one damn bit that if you were in the same situation that they were in before they sign the contract that you wouldn't have done the same thing. I.e. Let's say you are "BROKE", have very little but have good looks and a guy or lady walks up to you and says.... I want to make you popular, I will pay you X amount of money, you will have woman all over you, people dressing like you, etc., but you don't get to actually sing, you just have to learn the songs and lip-sync to them that you would not take that deal.

Interesting. So...these guys really COULD sing. Maybe a little more vocal training for fine tuning...but they really could've done their own music. My first time seeing this. Wow

Who is the blonde man with Milli Vanilli?

[@pogamassing9586]

I’m nostalgic for when this was the biggest problem we had in the US.

[@sideezy1550]

What happened to them sadly is standard practice these days! Milli Vanillie got popular in the wrong era it’s simple as that!

[@AlexJ.Goldsmith]

Like they prove they could sing right there.

[@jadwiga6635]

This guys are awesome! They Look better than J.Morrison. They move better than Jagger. They singing better than Milli Vanilli. Awesome indeed! Prize for them? Grammy is not enough!!!

Did the musicians stand behind them?

[@millivanilliRF]

Yes, there are some musicians ( but not all) and the woman with light brown hair ( Jodie Rocco) is one of the real singers.

[@toosweet6046]

@@millivanilliRF that was awesome of them... It’s a tragic story and Rob paid with his life...

[@millivanilliRF]

@@toosweet6046 Rob and Fab entertained a lot of people and Milli Vanilli didn’t deserve to end up like this. Rob will be forever in our hearts.

[@RosDC]

Yes they did entertain, and captivate a live audience, and dance...that wasn't fake.

[@ChroniclesofAlicha_Balaam]

@@millivanilliRF Proud of you...you two were very brave to speak the truth. I am sorry about Rob but glad you got up and continued on in music. Please consider doing some songs in French and English. Bless up!!!

[@GastonLaterza]

To think that today a lot of bands do it, and yet they continue to sing much worse than they "sang", today no scandal would happen with this, it's a shame that what happened happened, because it was a very good product, today with the auto-tune everything was resolved... Too bad

[@user-pk6ft3eb6d]

If they had to stand accountable for their actions, it definitely shouldn't have been to room full of hyenas who call themselves reporters.

[@MooJoo5555]
