Too Good to be true?


By now you've probably heard the story and no doubt youtubed the video of Susan Boyles performance on Britains Got Talent. The voice that silenced Simon Cowell.

Just wanted to pose the question to you that perhaps this voice is a bit too good to be true. Obviously the footage has been heavily edited by the show but still it seems a tad too perfect. Perhaps this is all an elaborate hoax?

"Everyone on stage knew exactly what the Boyle performance would be like and their reactions--before and after--were scripted. The TV performance was about the 12th time Ms. Boyle had performed for Idol staff." LINK

Dose anyone remember Milli Vanilli?

Milli Vanilli was a pop/dance music project formed by Frank Farian in Germany in 1988, fronted by Fab Morvan and Rob Pilatus. The group's debut album achieved high sales internationally which earned them a Grammy Award for Best New Artist in 1990. The act became one of the most popular pop acts in the late 1980s and early 1990s. However, their success turned to infamy when their Grammy was revoked after it was revealed that the actual vocals on the record were not the voices of Morvan and Pilatus. WIKI
