It was a studio project but the singers were not of 'star' looks - overweight (in the 80's that was a big thing) so the 2 that were chosen eventually did all the performing live. Funny thing is they both could actually sing, they were just not allowed to!
I do remember reading all about it. I remember at the time thinking that someone was out to get them or something as what I saw seemed so authentic at their concert.
