He was talking about a biopic a few years ago. So I guess it's still on according to this. I wonder how Vlad gets people to talk to him. He often seems he's about getting gossip or dirt on performers. Like trying to trick them into saying something that's secret.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

This is a really great interview.

I, too picked up on the fact that they couldn't speak English very well, but it didn't seem to bother me. shrug

Here's a recent performance of the group Face Meets Voice (Fab with John Davis, one of the singers on the Milli Vanilli records)

Well, I watched 67 minutes of this. eyepop It was really in depth!

hmmm I don't know why people talk to Vlad either but I am guessing it is because he lets them tell their side (and decide the edits, too). His questions don't seem to surprise his guests. Michel'le had a good one.

So you didn't get to where he talks the Rob & Fab album?

Only 17minutes into it so far but it's a really interesting interview. I think the Behind the Music doc is a good companion piece to this too. It's sad Milli Vanilli got a lot of negativity at the time about the lip syncing and that fall from grace IMO was the catalyst for Robs problems. Sadly he was just 32 when he passed.

He was very good looking too, no wonder they were models

Great interview. Dude is a good speaker and comes across as sincere.

Too bad about being associated with a firm selling sick chickens and GMOs to millions daily. There's more to life than advertising toxins to the masses.

I listened to one of his tracks. Not half bad.

Got to where he said they recorded it but the label couldn't press enough copies to distribute it. lol But I definitely remember seeing Rob & Fab's cassette AS WELL AS The Real Milli Vanilli with the studio singers.

Gabrielle Union & Dwyane Wade dressed up as the group this Halloween.

Yep. They were both goodlooking guys.
