Not sure if you youngin's remember this ,but it was pretty huge at the time. I was never a fan of their music, but like all pop music, it was everywhere. This is something that I still don't understand...
The music is the SAME regardless of who is actually singing it. Why were people so outraged?
Did they only buy it because of the good looking dancing men?

When the shocking news broke that Milli Vanilli had not actually sung on their album, the sort of backlash not seen since 1979's "Disco Sucks!" movement erupted. Consumers demanded refunds for their album purchases, threatened to sue Milli Vanilli's label, Arista Records, for fraud, and protested with LP-burning bonfires. The duo's Grammy was rescinded. Arista swiftly dropped Milli Vanilli and even deleted their album from its catalog (making Girl one of the biggest-selling albums to ever go out of print).
