The History of Milli Vanilli16 sept.38 min

When Svengali producer Frank Farian revealed that Milli Vanilli was a fake it nearly broke apart the world of pop music. The reaction from the media and the public was outrage tinged with racism and homophobia and the easy target for all the hate was the two young men hired to be the faces of the Euro-pop dance duo. It has taken 40 years for the world to realize that Rob Pilatus and Fab Morvan weren't the only ones to blame. In this episode a look back at the History of Milli Vanilli with help from Sarah Sahagian and Sadaf Ahsan from The Reheat podcast.
