Wait, Milli Vanilli were frauds?

Bloody, hell.

Guinness:

In 1990, pop duo Milli Vanilli ­ aka Fabrice Morvan (France) and Rob Pilatus (USA) ­ won Best New Artist for their album Girl You Know It's True . However, when it was revealed that the only roles the two men had played in the creation of the album were appearing on its cover and lip-synching along to professional singers in the video they were exposed during a 'live' performance on MTV when a song they were miming to began skipping ­ they were stripped of their Grammy.

This was one of the events that you could care less about, but still remember it if their name comes up.

Open thread.
