Mario Courtney Lopez. Let's put on our thinking caps. It's
time for Courtney's random question. What you got to name?

Speaker 3 (00:31):
You've been kidnapped? Oh no, but one hour later, your
kidnapper returns you. I know they would do this for
Santino because you won't stop talking about what.

Speaker 2 (00:42):
Funny that you mentioned Santino, Because I was about to say,
your kids. Nobody likes to hear about your kids unless
they're family, and I'm talking immediate family like nan An Tata,
Grandpa and grandma.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
That's it.

Speaker 2 (00:57):
Just like no one wants to hear about your No
one ever went, oh, I had a dream last night,
unless that dream involves me. I don't want to hear it. Seriously,
think about it whenever time I tell you to tell
your dream, unless they say I had a dream about you.

Speaker 4 (01:10):
There's nothing more than someone forcing the story of their
dream on you. You thinking that you're somehow going to
be involved, and then it ends and you're never gonna ruther.
Why are you telling me?

Speaker 2 (01:18):
A big waste of time, big waste of time.

Speaker 3 (01:20):
I don't think I've ever told some of my dream
unless they were in it.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
That's just a little heads up in words of wisdom
out there, do not sure your dreams with someone unless
they're in it. Then they'll find it fascinating. Other than that,
you're wasting people's time.

singer fab more Van. Welcome to the show, brother, hoy.

Speaker 5 (04:28):
Bean, I'm good man.

Speaker 6 (04:29):
You know it's a celebrat elebration. Bro.

Speaker 5 (04:33):
Yeah, we get the movie right now, we're telling the story.

Speaker 6 (04:37):
You get a chance to walk to walk down this
memory lane wearing the Robin fab emotional shoes, and then
you get to understand the inner workings of the music industry,
the exploitation taking place. How LUs we were not aware
of what was going to happen to our lives.

Speaker 5 (04:58):
We didn't know.

Speaker 6 (05:00):
We just followed their lead because you know they had
golden records on the wall, so you.

Speaker 5 (05:07):
Know, you didn't want to bite the hand that feed.

Speaker 6 (05:09):
That that fed us, that was about to feed us
and make the superstars.

Speaker 5 (05:13):
But we fell into the trap. And I think that
this movie is.

Speaker 6 (05:17):
It's beautiful because it's it's poetic, it's emotional, it's it's
ducational and you get to really feel what happened in
those two guys, Elan and t John. They killed it
man two unknown, but I believe that two stars were born.
What process of making that movie?

Speaker 2 (05:35):
You know, I'm a big fan and I love the
documentary and you were great in it, and I think
it really broke broke it down. So I'm looking forward
to the movie and it's nice to hear that you
felt it got the story right and you like the actors.
Almar dot com to check out a trailer for the
new Million Vanilli biopic, Girl, you know it's true. Fab
Hang tight, quick break, I'm gonna have more with Fab,

(05:55):
more van.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
More fun on the way on with Mario Lopez.

Speaker 2 (06:00):
Celebrate to throw Back Thursday with Fat Moore Van from
Millie Vanilli, your own Mario Lopez and Fat. Let me
ask you back in the eighties, what was the moment
when when you realize your debut album was blown up?

Speaker 5 (06:11):
We went to New York Parkham Region Hotel.

Speaker 6 (06:15):
We'd get out the limo, we'd go into the truck,
the security, the driver gives us our clothing and we
hear YO really.

Speaker 5 (06:25):
Like so we turned all right, all right, damn that.

Speaker 6 (06:31):
We go into the lobby and and pretty much everyone
knows who we are. And then we got up into
a hotel room. Like true story.

Speaker 5 (06:41):
We turn on TV. Boom girl, you know it's true.
It was like wow.

Speaker 6 (06:46):
And on the way from the airport from from Kenny Airport,
y Kennedy Airport, Yeah, yeah, you know, yeah, Kenny Airport,
we were looking at downtown and we were playing. We
were being played on two stations. It was like just
like Twilight Zone, those two cats. We learned a lot
when we came to America.

Speaker 2 (07:04):
What a welcome and introduction to America. Milli Vanilli's fab
More Van is with us a few more songs and
we're going to talk some more. Getting back to fab
More van from Milli Vanilli was hanging on Zoom with us.
Mario Lopez here, and you know when you won the
Grammy for Best New Artists, I know they revoked it.
Did you actually have to return the trophy because or

(07:24):
do you still have it? First?

Speaker 5 (07:26):
That to me answered, well, you know it went down
like this. You know, we felt like in.

Speaker 6 (07:30):
Order to withhold a Grammy in your possession, you had
to sing.

Speaker 5 (07:36):
So we willingly gave it back. We told we don't.

Speaker 6 (07:39):
Deserve this right, but I could have kept it at home,
but we felt like it was the right thing to do.

Speaker 5 (07:47):
But the one thing that that that.

Speaker 6 (07:49):
The press failed to always report is that we told
the press.

Speaker 5 (07:54):
We tell the We told the Los Angeles.

Speaker 6 (07:56):
Time one afternoon, yo, we're going to give it back.
And then they interview Narrows on the same day and
I think he told them, Yo, they're gonna give it back,
so they jumped the gun.

Speaker 5 (08:06):
And to this day, I always have to tell, you know,
when I tell people and interviews that, yo.

Speaker 6 (08:11):
We wanted to give it back, but they made it
seem like, yeah, it's being revoked.

Speaker 5 (08:15):
But we were the one who wanted to give it back.
And also I always have to like.

Speaker 6 (08:19):
You know, that's one of the misconceptions that I always
straighten out, which.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
Is ironic now because cut too, we have a whole
generation of artists that are like, you know what I'm saying,
and yeah, bron and this and that, it's crazy. All right, Fab,
I've got to play some music, So hang time, we're
gonna have more with Fab. More Van coming up, A
Mario Lopez catching up with Million Vanilli's fab more van
And when you're thinking about everything that happened, if it

(08:45):
happened today, do you think your story would be less controversial, scandalous, dramatic.

Speaker 6 (08:50):
Man, Listen, how smart those influences have become.

Speaker 5 (08:55):
We all know how much money some of them generate.

Speaker 6 (08:58):
Bro, we would have gotten publicist, manager, attorney, got the team, yo,
and and and and.

Speaker 5 (09:06):
We're gonna turn this over.

Speaker 6 (09:08):
We're gonna we're gonna turn this over, and we're gonna
rewrite that history.

Speaker 5 (09:12):
And it would have been very possible with social media.
We've been able to be go live, TikTok, whatever it
would have been, we would be. We would have been
able to reinvent ourselves. And that's what.

Speaker 6 (09:23):
Social media, you know, is, I believe therefore you can
really turn yourself into something else. The problem with that
is that a lot of people are not what you
think they are straight up, you know so, and especially
from like I even saw not long ago that you

(09:43):
could change your body shape with an app.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
You see this right, Look at that we got we
we work hard for it, you know, we got it.

Speaker 6 (09:54):
Yeah, But there's a lot of stuff out there on photo.

Speaker 5 (09:58):
We know you can bump stuff up.

Speaker 6 (10:00):
But now they got an Apple video and now you're
talking about that.

Speaker 5 (10:05):
Where are we going?

Speaker 1 (10:07):
And Ai?

Speaker 6 (10:07):
Then you have AI music, right, I mean we look
in a whole different world.

Speaker 5 (10:12):
But I know one thing. One thing is for sure
singing live, live, truly live. They can't take that away.
So I will be coming to America all in time.
For now we're going to do.

Speaker 6 (10:23):
We start with Africa right now, a little bit sprinkle
South America, but at a zeal And then at some
point when it's right then.

Speaker 5 (10:31):

what I'm saying. Yeah, I'll come see. I got them.

Speaker 3 (13:14):
A homemade shaved ice. You guys, this is so easy
to make. You get a watermelon, you cut it into
slices and throw them into a freezer. Once they are solid,
grate them into a bowl, kind of like you would
do with cheese. Add some toppings like squeeze lime or honey.
Then guess what shall.

Speaker 2 (13:35):

Speaker 5 (14:39):
Raser.

Speaker 4 (14:39):
This is from at Betsy tolling Soon. My condolences. It
appears you've lost the wig war against your son. The
lamas have won well.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
Betsy talling Soon is referring to a post that I'd
posted the other day regarding my son's wig, where I
said he looks like an outpaca, not necessarily a lama,
but I guess they're sort of one the same similar looks.
It's wild because all these kids, He's not alone in this.
All the kids in his school, pretty much in that generation,

(15:10):
want to rock this moppy broccoli looking I'll pack a
wig and it's the weirdest thing. And he's got great hair.
But he wants a perm and I'm like, I can't
do it.

Speaker 4 (15:20):
To perm now.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
Yes, all the kids are asking for perms, which is
ironic because growing up, my mom gave me one without
me wanting it, and now he wants one and I'm
refusing to give him one. He's got such a great wig.
I hope this phase is quick and passes by real.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
