Milli Vanilli the movie???


Milli Vanilli movie

February 16, 2007 12:00

DISGRACED pop duo Milli Vanilli will soon get a movie made about their less-than-spectacular career, following in the cinematic steps of such icons as Ray Charles and Johnny Cash.

Hollywood trade paper Daily Variety reported today that Universal Pictures is developing a film about the lip-synching combo, who lost their coveted Grammy for best new artist in 1990 when it emerged that they had never sung on their records.

The project will be written and directed for the General Electric Co.-controlled studio by Jeff Nathanson, who previously wrote the Leonardo DiCaprio crime caper Catch Me If You Can.

He has secured the cooperation of Milli Vanilli alumnus Fabrice Morvan, who has been pursuing a comeback for years, as well as the estate of his colleague, Rob Pilatus, who died of a drug overdose in 1998.

"I've always been fascinated by the notion of fakes and frauds, and in this case, you had guys who pulled off the ultimate con, selling 30 million singles and 11 million albums and then becoming the biggest laughing-stocks of pop entertainment," the paper quoted Nathanson as saying

I guess because it happened so long ago, most kids will not get it and I bet this movie goes straight to DVD!

actually, with the likes of Britney and Jennifer Lopez out now being rumored to be non-singers, the Milli Vanilli story is more relevant than one may think.

Part of me does feel bad for Fab Morvan. America seems to love "to hell and back" stories, but yet Fab went to a deeper dimension of hell than Mariah or any of these other "comeback stories" and even though he has returned to singing WITH HIS OWN VOICE (and he actually has talent), he still has yet to see a comeback. You'd think with the way that the media loves to tear people to shreds, and then rooting for them to come back (looks like we'll be seeing this with Britney Spears in a year), you'd think people would want to give Fab a second chance. I mean, him and Rob were the victims of the matter, Frank Farian promised them if they lipsynched, he would let them sing on the second album with their own voices.
