Amazing that Fab was able to face the public again and sing for himself. I loved Milli Vanilli as a teenager! I am glad this story came full circle..i have the milli vanilli LP. No one should have to feel sad the way Rob did. Fab redeemed them both.
Rob and Fab are golden. I will always see them as the package deal. When the story broke I was like so what it’s still great music, good vibe, and great dance.
❤ I will never forget Rob saying, I couldn't sing it 15 times. 😊 RIP sweet guy. Gone but never forgotten. You go for it Fab. You deserve this after all you have been through. X ❤
Fab, you are a beautiful example for all of us. You definatly didn't deserve what you were both put through. The people at the top of the pyramid, in the music buisness, are in the buisness of using people for the purpose of making money. They took advantage of your youth, your innocence. So glad you made it through. God bless you. God bless Rob in heaven.
Biggest injustice ever. These two talented young men who barely spoke English were taken advantage off. They were thrown to the wolves. Their producer took advantage of them. The contract was in German. Fab doesn't even speak German also they had no lawyers to help them. I'm glad the truth is finally being told and I am happy to see Fab move on with his life. Rob should be here. I love them both.❤
This is so heartbreaking 😢I remember hearing about this scandal when I was a while ago and I didn't know the truth of what actually happened behind the scenes but wow. This is terrible! Truly shows how messed up the music industry was and still is to this very day!
Rob, i understand you brother. I was bullied almost my entire life, especially in HS, it destroyed me as an adult. I thought about ending my life several times as a teenager because of the bullying, RIP
He was about to go to Sri Lanka in an holistic type of rehab but he died the night before his flight of alcohol and drug overdose although he once had intended to end his life.
Where is Frank Farrian in all this. Leaving Fab and Rob to face everyone. Sad to see what happened to Rob but I have to say that Fab is a legend for carrying on. I love his version of the songs better than the original music that was put out. Fab is a man of strength. He continued on doing what he loved doing .... singing and entertaining people with his beautiful talent. God gave him a gift and he is sharing it still with the world.
They could sing. F. Farian didnt let them and has trown them to the wolfes at the end. They got all the Blame and hate back then. And farian and all the other Powerfull people in the back never have been held accountable. There is a Documentary on Paramount + which tells the story of them, fair and from their point of view. Worth to watch. (most other documentarys have been biased and pro farian) Fabrice still sings and performs regularly. I have Videos of some of his performances on my Channel. They have been used and exploited. They never deserved the hate & backlash back then. R.I.P Rob :)
The real people who sang on all the hits should give themselves a name and go on tour singing those hits. They deserve recognition. The songs were great.
Davis died a few years ago but he became friends with Fab and they actually did a tour together called Face meets voice for 6 years. You can find the lives on UA-cam they both sound amazing. Howell is too old and never was interested in extensive touring.
Rob and Fab, as well as the actual singers, were in a way all victims of an industry that is absolutly ruthless and will ]take advantage of you for its benefit and then throw you to the wolves when you've outlived your usefulness. None of them: Rob, Fab, and the actual singers, deserved to be taken advantage of and exploited the way they were.
yes, that's true. They were brought together for a purpose; I think this exposed the music industry for what it really was, and artists became more cautious about the contracts they were signing. Even in the middle of a teaching moment that this was, there will be those who survive and those who perish from the pain. RIP Rob.
@@rnbsteenstar - In the aftermath of this scandal, Fab should hold his head high for surviving it. It would have broken just about anyone...nevermind the fact that they were in their 20s with limited experience and a language barrier.
unacceptable and shameful of everyone involved from the producers to the rob and fab and also the record company. so they never gave a live concert? that wouldn't work today.
Rob and Fab should not have been thrown to the wolves. They allowed themselves to be seduced by the money and fame, but they also were gullible and trusting. They had no legal representation when they signed a contract in a foreign country. Rob was from Germany, but he likely still did not fully read or understand the full extent of the contract, as most young artists are not versed on the "business" side of the music industry.
People blasted Rob Pilatus and Fabrice Morvan, two professional singers who could dance, for lip-syncing to the first Milli Vanilli album. Yet what is happening now is much worse than anything they did. While Morvan and even Pilatus proved, after that scandal, they were actually elite and talented singers, the singers using autotune and AI never are required to prove such. How is that fair? In all likelihood the only real reason why Morvan and Pilatus were forced to lip-sync was due to their European accents. However with artists using AI and auto tune, who really knows how talented they really are? With those technologies, even someone like me could record a song.
Frank Farian was evil for what he did to them! I heard Frank died. I’m sure he’s looking up at us. It’s hot down there🔥 This took way too long. Justice for Rob and Fab !! 🙏
They were very young. They were lied on the beginning and after didn’t have choice. The evil here is this producer who lied and seduced those beautiful singers who had dreams to sing and be famous
They were simply very very good at lip sync….simple….more like….what does he actually think …investigate journalism really is…😂😂 it’s well and good now Rob has passed away to shift the blame when he can not speak for himself anymore…
I always felt it was messed up that everyone seemed to forget the producer, label and management who made hundreds of millions from the act.
Agreed! Clive Davis and Frank Farian deserve the blame!
Exactly they had them do it
Exactly they had them do it
Fab seems serene, sound and in peace with himself and his past. What a gift. ❤
Amazing that Fab was able to face the public again and sing for himself. I loved Milli Vanilli as a teenager! I am glad this story came full circle..i have the milli vanilli LP. No one should have to feel sad the way Rob did. Fab redeemed them both.
Agree, Fab has a lovely voice. He is singing for both of them.

These poor guys were set up the record label and producers should of explained what they did rest in peace Rob
Rob, i understand you brother. I was bullied almost my entire life, especially in HS, it destroyed me as an adult. I thought about ending my life several times as a teenager because of the bullying, RIP
We love you rob and fab❤😢😢😢
It's really sad that Rob ended his life over this mess.
Rob will never be forgotten we miss him and we love him he just wanted to be loved 😭😭sorry
Yes...so HEARTBREAKING @ShaniTrahan-hj6lc
He was about to go to Sri Lanka in an holistic type of rehab but he died the night before his flight of alcohol and drug overdose although he once had intended to end his life.
@@Candyprincess971so sad 😢
I really wish he wasn't dead🤦 he must've felt really awful at the time ... such a beautiful soul..💔
At the time I didn’t care as Black Box was clearly lip syncing…I just thought it was normal 😂😂. I loved Milli Vanilli!!
Exactly
I still love Rob and Fab. Fab is a very good singer nowadays. RIP ROB❤❤❤
But many bands were doing that at that time. Lip syncing to other singer's voices.
Routinely! Still are sometimes.
Milli Vanilli 4EVER❤
Of course we have forgiven...to be honest I never held it against them. I have only LOVE for both Fab and Rob (God rest his soul).💌
GOD GIVE THEM JUSTICE

there is a bigger picture here as well. The exploitation and disrespect of Black ARTISTS: She didn't talk about that
RIP Rob Pilatus 💚💚💚
I see how protective Rob was over Fab at that time. It's not just lovers who are soulmates.

@@Ava2969ny even so, maybe Rob and Fab were actually twin flames if not higher level soul mates at least.
I still think this is a great album regardless! They have some really great songs!
Fab a Rob are Milli Vanilli. When someone talk about Milli Vanilli it is them they remember 🤘
Rob and Fab were "used and abused" as Rob said in the interview. All the best to Fab 💙💙💙and R.I.P. Rob Pilatus.🙏🙏🙏
wish i had a friend like fab , what a guy.😊
Most everyone lip syncs so annoying poor guys
😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢 I love his outlook so much
And now there all auto tuned or pitched love u guys Rob RIP 💫 fab u go god bless u fight the good fight 🤟💟☮️🍀😜🤘🦋cheers
At 4:56 min Fab sounds pretty good.... To bad they went through all that drama
unacceptable and shameful of everyone involved from the producers to the rob and fab and also the record company. so they never gave a live concert? that wouldn't work today.

This is funny because they were victims & on top of that fab can actually sing & rap very well they should’ve let him actually sing
Yes, journalism sold morals for money.
good thing there is no social media that time

I knew back then it be the labels they are still devils
Rob was a damn hottie and working it.
I was and i am not offended.too bad rob couldn't handle it.
The producers need to bring his butt to the forefront and admit he created the false image
Frank Farian was probably backstage and kicked the record player.
Frank Farian was evil for what he did to them! I heard Frank died. I’m sure he’s looking up at us. It’s hot down there🔥 This took way too long. Justice for Rob and Fab !! 🙏
I still gots there álbum from one penny back then
Oath of the press?🤔
They were very young. They were lied on the beginning and after didn’t have choice. The evil here is this producer who lied and seduced those beautiful singers who had dreams to sing and be famous
I love blame it on the rain 😊
Rob and Fab too famous to return the procurers calls so he outed them in a gelous rage.
the first industry plants
They where exploited for someone else greed
They were simply very very good at lip sync….simple….more like….what does he actually think …investigate journalism really is…😂😂 it’s well and good now Rob has passed away to shift the blame when he can not speak for himself anymore…
pfffft
nope they can actually sing but the producers wanted them to sing the songs the company put forward to sell ...
These wannabe ladies made complete fools of themselves
As if you wouldn't have done exactly the same thing.
