Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Robert "Rob" Pilatus (June 8, 1965 April 2, 1998) was a German-American model, dancer and singer. Pilatus was best known as half of the pop music duo Milli Vanilli. Pilatus was born in Germany, the son of an African American soldier and a German mother who was an adult entertainer. Pilatus was later adopted by a German family and raised in Munich. He worked as a model and break dancer, before joining Fabrice Morvan in 1988 to form the pop group Milli Vanilli. Pilatus and Morvan were noticed by music producer Frank Farian, who signed them to be part of a musical act. Shortly after a trip to Turkey, where the duo was reputed to have gotten the band name from a local advertising slogan, Milli Vanilli was born, with Pilatus and Morvan serving as the public faces for the vocal talents of Charles Shaw and Brad Howell, who Farian thought were talented musiciansbut lacked a marketable image. The first Milli Vanilli platinum album was Girl You Know It''s True which became a worldwide hit. The album produced five hit singles including three number 1 hits, "Girl I''m Gonna Miss You", "Baby Don''t Forget My Number" and "Blame It On The Rain".
