History of the '90s

When Svengali producer Frank Farian revealed that Milli Vanilli was a fake it nearly broke apart the world of pop music. The reaction from the media and the public was outrage tinged with racism and homophobia and the easy target for all the hate was the two young men hired to be the faces of the Euro-pop dance duo.
