The German/French-American R&B group Milli Vanilli was stripped of their Grammy Award after it was revealed that they didn't actually sing their three biggest hit singles from their debut album, "All Or Nothing (Girl You Know It's True)."
The album went four times platinum and sparked a massive fan base. The singers Fabrice (Fab) Morvan and Rob Pilatus were heartthrobs and global icons of the late 1980s and early 1990s.
The singers had background vocalist John Davis sing on behalf of them and dubbed his vocals with the group.
Davis who remained a part of the group even in controversy had died.

Davis was the "original voice" of Milli Vanilli. He passed away from complications related to COVID-19. Davis was born in South Carolina but joined the group in 1987 and stayed with the group even through scandal. He lived in Germany until his passing.
Surviving member Fab Morvan shared his condolences of his friend and longtime producer.
"Can't believe it, thanks for all the love you've spread throughout the years, from the edge of the stage."
"You and I had a great run, it was fun to celebrate life with the help of music. Peace one love your voice will live on. Play it loud everybody."
Davis' daughter Jasmin broke the news on social media saying that her dad passed away from the coronavirus at the age of 66.
The group had the whole world come crumbling down when it was revealed by MTV journalist Beth McCarthy-Miller. She interviewed the Fab and Rob and she said they didn't sound like their singing voices. Fab had a deep German voice and Rob had a Franco-German voice.

They made a performance at an event in Bristol, Connecticut where the group had lip synced their songs and the track actually skipped during mid-performance. British-American media personality Downtown Julie Brown tried to calm Rob down after he ran from the stage with tears in his eyes.
She urged Milli Vanilli to finish the single and not worry about it. Rob came back to the set and the crowd cheered them on as their finished their set.
Rob and Fab knew how to dance. That's one of their trademark's to Milli Vanilli. |
Charles Shaw blew the whistle on the group by saying that he was not paid royalties and soon their were stripped of their Grammy titles.
Rob was so traumatized by the ordeal he went into deep depression and started falling into despair. He would die of a drug overdose in 1998 after he finished recording their official album. He died in Frankfurt, Germany and was buried in his hometown.
Fab lives in the United States with his wife and children.
Fab has been producing and recording albums on the side. He also host a podcast to discuss music, politics and pop culture.
The coronavirus does not care about your race, gender, sexuality, nationality, religion, economic, political and social standings. It doesn't care about your weddings, funerals, births, birthday parties, vacations, employment and protests. It is a living organization that causes flu-like symptoms, body aches, respiratory failure and many other unknown symptoms. It has killed over 600,000 Americans and over 2.5 million worldwide.
It's not a fucking joke!
Even though Americans are getting vaccinated, there are some who continue to refuse to follow mandates and practice safe procedures. The pandemic may be easing up but it's far from being over. Once we can report that the numbers of infections are reduced to less than 20 per 1,000 Americans, then President Joe Biden can confirm the pandemic is officially over.
