Real voice-singer 'John Davis' behind 'Milli Vanilli' dies from COVID-19

JOHN DAVIS behind MILLI VANILLI. It was a secret in the music industry when the album "Girl you know it's true" was released in the United States (1989). It had propelled the duo "Milli Vanilli" to super-stardom. The album climbed to number #1 on the Billboard Album Chart. It stayed there for 7 weeks. It had also spawned five Top-5 hits and three number #1 songs.

The secret ended at a 1990 press conference when "Milli Vanilli" revealed that they never sung-a-note on the album. 

The music producer hired a singer named John Davis to sing for the duo. He was told not to reveal who he was and what he had done. That is until the secret was exposed. 

John Davis died recently from COVID-19. He was 66 years old.

Below is Rob Morvan & John Davis singing the number #1 hit "Girl I'm Gonna Miss You."


Below is the music video "Girl I'm Gonna Miss You." Milli Vanilli didn't sing this song - but John Davis did.
