John Davis, one of the real singers behind the lip-synching pop duo Milli Vanilli, died of the coronavirus this week, according to his family. He was 66.

Davis died on Monday in Nuremberg, Germany, where he had lived and performed for a long time, his daughter Jasmin Davis said in a Facebook post.Davis was credited with backup vocals but was really a lead singer on albums by Milli Vanilli, whose expeditious ascension into the music world was followed by an equally rapid fall.

Born in Anderson, South Carolina, Davis had lived much of his life in Germany after first being stationed there with the U.S. Army in the 1970s, he told The Hustle podcast on an episode published in April. The record on which Davis sang sold more than 6 million copies in the U.S. alone. All five singles from the album were Top 5 hits.

Morvan and Davis remained on good terms, performing together on a German television show in 2015. A documentary film about Milli Vanilli's rise and fall is reportedly in the works.
