Florian Gallenberger to Write and Direct Milli Vanilli

Fiona August 5, 2011 Add a Comment

Milli Vanilli

Yes, you know it’s true… ooh, ooh, ooh… that Florian Gallenberger has signed on to write and direct a feature film based on the 80s pop duo – Rob Pilatus and Fabrice Morvan or, if you prefer Milli Vanilli! Gallenberger is German director who won an Oscar for his live-action short Quero Ser and directed John Rabe, so we guess that this could be an interesting project. The story will revolve around Pilatus and Morvan, who were hired by German record producer Frank Farian as the faces of his music group. Farian had the signers and the songs, but wanted a certain look, which he found when he spotted model/dancer friends Pilatus and Morvan in a Munich club. Milli Vanilli debut album achieved international success and earned them a Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 1990. They soon became one of the most popular pop acts in the late 1980s and early 1990s. However, the first sign that the group was lip-synching happened in late 1989 during a live performance on MTV at the Lake Compounce theme park in Bristol, Connecticut. As they performed onstage live in front of an audience, the recording of the song “Girl You Know It’s True” jammed and began to skip, repeating the partial line “Girl, you know it’s…” over and over on the speakers. They continued to pretend to sing and dance onstage for a few more moments, then they both ran offstage. Pilatus and Morvan were demoralized and shamed. Rob Pilatus died years later of what was believed to be a drug overdose and the two dancers went down in infamy as the poster boys for lip-synching. Interested in this? Let us know what you think!
