MILLI VANILLI (2023) dir. Luke Korem | This moment in the doc really stuck with me. Imagine being a poor, abused, orphaned black child in Germany in the 80s who finally got one opportunity to follow your dreams. Your dreams ended up being exploited for a white couple's gain. Then when you lose the little success you had, you're berated by a British white man.

Rob and Fab

..After watching monsters everybody’s got it on their case to follow Robin clan and their journey with the whole lip syncing thing and realizing they were the first jailers basically. The first Jennifer Lopez music apart from the fact that this frank farry and character made a couple of people famous who were backup dancers. These two poor boys from Germany with France and also they totally got played by the music industry and executives they met people like Clive Davis how much told they would be big stars they didn’t get time to look at their contracts and realize that they were being shafted eventually this dream would be over Michigan football right they had to give their Grammy back even though people in the industry will renew this we’re lifting the veil so much more than in the than we did in the 1980s and 2000s so we saw this. as we look back we see the narrative in a different light rest in peace to rob ,PILatas,he even went out of my favorite, thr poor man trued to kill himself after the scanadal.

magazine model girl of the incredible Bobbie Brown. Not the on the original play yeah. This is the model ,the original Pamela Anderson.she wasn’t paying obsessed though I can see them being a really good couple actually. I don’t know why they just seem to fit like together. Some of these outfits they were giving back up dances like the crop tops which are very camp.,. but let’s give credit to these men. And the other people who were part of this voice and band respect kind wishes

Saturday Reads: Unpacking the Milli Vanilli Documentary – A Story of Deception, Racism, and Redemption

Reporter: Despite the fact that that you felt you were threatened ---

Rob: "FELT"?!

Milli Vanilli press conference, November 20, 1990, Full (Youtube)

After Rob tells the press that they were threatened from high places for trying to stop the lies, a reporter downplays the threats and tries to shame them for accepting Grammys they were made to accept.

"We don't understand that it's us, the two little guys from Germany, the victims, [who are] suddenly the crooks"
