What Happened Today In Music, April 2nd 1998 Robert Pilatus, one half of pop duo Milli Vanilli was found dead in a Frankfurt Hotel room after taking a lethal combination of drugs and alcohol. He was 33 (born 8 June 1965). Milli Vanilli won the 1989 best new artist Grammy after hits like 'Blame it on the Rain' and 'Girl, You Know It's True,' selling 30 million singles and 14 million albums. But in late 1990, the performers were stripped of the award after it was revealed that neither actually sang on the Milli Vanilli album. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdSmokR0Enk #TodayInMusic
