Which duo had its Best New Artist Grammy revoked in 1990?

Milli Vanilli had its Best New Artist Grammy revoked in 1990.

The duo, Fab Morvan and Rob Pilatus, won the award at the 32nd Grammy Awards in February 1990 for their international success with Girl You Know It's True. The victory helped make them major pop stars, alongside several American Music Awards and hit singles.

The scandal broke later that year when producer Frank Farian revealed that Morvan and Pilatus had not sung on the recordings. The revelation followed public suspicion, including a notorious lip-sync failure during a live performance. On November 19, 1990, the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences rescinded the Grammy and declared the category vacant.

A common mix-up is to say the duo merely forfeited or returned the award. It was formally revoked by the Recording Academy, and the incident remains the only known instance of a Grammy being rescinded. The controversy also led Arista Records to drop the act and remove its album from the catalog.
