I may be too young (ironic as im close to 40) or i became aware of culture too late, but i'm going to ask @ChatGPT-5 why milli vanilli is so popular and why I hear them referenced when someone's being disrespected or joking
They were two male models from Europe who were hired by European record producers to be the face of two ugly azz dudes that could really sing so they made a career out of lip synching the vocals and dancing on stage and the music got real popular in America and they blew up before people discovered they were frauds

It's weird cuz if Milli Vanilli came out now and did it no one would give a shyt and if Milli Vanilli came out the 70s no would give a shyt cuz the producers who hired Milli Vanilli did this practice through out the 70s. Throughout the 90s tons of models were used to lip sync Martha Wash vocals. To be honest the only reason anybody cared is because they were HUGE.

I remember the Milli vanilli craze as a kid this would be like finding out Taylor Swift's vocals were sung by someone else.

Crazy that it was the white dude/producer singing this.
