In some respect, Milli Vanilli brought it on themselves. “Handlers” or not — they sought to get rich by perpetrating a fraud on the public. They got caught. They knew what they were doing was wrong, but allowed themselves to be talked into it because of promises of fame and fortune. Pride comes before the fall.

It is a shame that one of them committed suicide.

I watched a special on this whole Mili Vanilli fiasco. they won a Grammy and all of the singing was done by some poor no-name studio singer. I hope they gave him the Grammy.

This is a great comparison for the current President though. He is lost without the prepared statments fed to him through the teleprompter. I wonder how long before they can hide the teleprompter in the podium so we won’t know if he is using it or not.

Geez, I think you just described about 535 people who work in the Capital building in Washington, DC.

But they were KIDS! They had greedy handlers who were telling them what they were doing was cool - they grew up too late to keep from killing themselves when they realized otherwise. Obama is NOT only 18 or 19 years old and he knows exactly what he is doing.

All of these entertainers are phoneys.

They all lip sync during concerts because they sound worse than a truck full of scrap iron going down a dirt road.
