Deadly Duo: cocktail of alcohol and drugs. Whitney Houston, Heath Ledger, Michael Jackson and Anna Nicole Smith are all thought to have died from prescription drug overdoses.
Like many other addicts, they eventually began mixing drugs along with alcohol. Once people get hooked on drugs, it is fairly easy to stay addicted.
People who are addicted or dependent rarely seek help right away, and their loved ones are also often slow to intervene.
The average person waits 10 years from the start of an addiction to the time when he or she actually seeks help.
If you wait, you are playing Russian roulette.
Milli Vanilli became one of the most popular pop acts in the late 1980’s and early 1990’s, with millions of records sold.
However, their success quickly turned to infamy when Morvan, Pilatus, and their agent Sergio Vendero confessed that Morvan and Pilatus did not sing any of the vocals heard on their music releases.
In the years following the collapse of Milli Vanilli, Pilatus struggled with substance abuse and even suicide attempts.
After their unsuccessful comeback, Morvan and Pilatus stopped speaking to each other.
In 1996, Pilatus served three months in prison for assault, vandalism, and attempted robbery.
Morvan paid for Pilatus to spend six months in drug rehabilitation.
On 2 April 1998, on the eve of a promotional tour for a new Milli Vanilli album, Rob Pilatus was found dead at the age of 32 from a suspected alcohol and prescription pill overdose in Kent’s Cube in Frankfurt.
Pilatus’ death was ruled accidental, many suspect it was a suicide.
I’m in love with you, girl, ’cause you’re on my mind
You’re the one I think about most every time
And when you pack a smile in everything you do
Don’t you understand, girl, this love is true?
You’re soft, succulent, so sweet and thin
That’s kind of like a vision upon your skin
It lightens up my day, and that’s, oh, so true
Together we’re one, separated we’re two
To make you all mine, all mine is my desire
‘Cause you contain a quality, you that I admire
You’re pretty plain and simple, you rule my world
So try to understand
I’m in love, girl, I’m so in love, girl
I’m just in love, girl, and this is true
Girl, you know it’s true
I love you
Yes, you know it’s true
I love you
Girl, you know it’s true
My love is for you
Girl, you know it’s true
My love is for you
This is some sort of thing, girl, I can’t explain
My emotions starts up when I hear your name
Maybe your sweet, sweet voice would ring in my ears
It stimulate my senses, girl, when you are near
And with your positive emotion, love-making enjoyin’
That’s for me to bust, it’s like a girl and a boy
These feelings I get I often wonder why
So I thought I might discuss this, girl, just you and I
Now what you’re wearing I don’t care, or as I’ve said before
No reason that I like you, girl, just for what you are
If I said I’d think about it, you rule my world
So try to understand
I’m in love, girl, I’m so in love, girl
I’m just in love girl, and this is true
Girl, you know it’s true
I love you
Yes, you know it’s true
I love you
Girl, you know it’s true
My love is for you
Girl, you know it’s true
My love is for you
