My Take
Rob Pilatus is a name that still stings to write about. He had the looks, the moves, and the charisma, yet Milli Vanilli's lip-sync scandal turned all of it to ash, and he died far too young in 1998. What I keep coming back to isn't his failing but the industry that manufactured, exploited, and then discarded him as the convenient villain. He was as much a victim of a star-making machine as anything else, and the cruelty of that era deserves more scrutiny than he ever got. I remember him with real sympathy; the brighter the spotlight, the longer the shadow.
