In a standout moment for audio storytelling, You Know It’s True: The Real Story of Milli Vanilli—published by The Los Angeles Tribune and Produced by Moe Rock, Parisa Rose, Giloh Morgan and Alisha Magnus-Louis—has been nominated for the 2026 Grammy Award in the Best Audio Book, Narration & Storytelling Recording category. The nomination was announced alongside this year’s full slate of contenders.
The project, written and narrated by Morvan, revisits the explosive pop-music saga of Milli Vanilli, casting the story through a lens of truth, redemption and creative reinvention. Morvan said he aimed for “the greatest redemption arc in the history of pop music,” a vision embraced by the production team and acknowledged by the Recording Academy.
This year’s nominee list in the category is stacked with heavy hitters: Dalai Lama – Meditations: The Reflections of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Kathy Garver – Elvis, Rocky & Me: The Carol Connors Story, Ketanji Brown Jackson – Lovely One: A Memoir, Trevor Noah – Into the Uncut Grass, and Morvan’s project.
By earning a nomination, The Los Angeles Tribune joins the ranks of media-publishers recognized for excellence in the storytelling audio medium. For producers Rock, Rose, Morgan and Magnus-Louis, the nod represents a crossover moment—where publishing, narrative craft and production converge in one of the industry’s most prestigious platforms.
With voting underway, the official awards will be revealed at the 68th Annual Grammy Awards live on February 1, 2026.
