The Official t.A.T.u Thread

[Northerner]

A news update from the Russian magazine MK, translated and posted by t.A.T.u.'s PR rep via their official media blog:

Extreme from t.A.T.u.

Disagreements in t.A.T.u. band is not really news, but a subject for discussion that follows the girls' duo since its appearance. People hungrily wait for a moment when the girls finally quarrel good and proper, fight and bathe in blood for the entertainment of the audience. But t.A.T.u. don't fight at all. Quite the reverse, each one lives her personal heterosexual life and completely left their honorary place in the iconostasis of gay icons. In the interview Lena Katina and Yulia Volkova throw some light on the latest "sensational" news - news sort of like "you heard the song but got it wrong".

Girls, can it be true that t.A.T.u. band is over?

Lena: Not really, t.A.T.u. keeps going, nobody's gone. But something did happen. Yulia and me start to work over our solo projects that will be together with t.A.T.u. Moreover, I will work on mine with our t.A.T.u. team.

Yulia: And I'll tell you about my plans later, as soon as all my plans come true. Actually many bands live in such "mode". Take Fergie and Black Eyed Peas, for example. The band keeps on producing records, but separately Fergie is doing her own thing. Same will happen with Lena and me. t.A.T.u. forever!

Lena: The decision to start solo project wasn't immediate. t.A.T.u. can't be just "deleted". It's ten years of our lives after all. We haven't even told our fans a couple of months about it, although the decision was made back as January. We needed to get used to the situation ourselves, to really understand that from now on there will be not only t.A.T.u., but also Yulia and me as two different artists.

Yulia: And tabloids exaggerated everything without bothering to look into details. Oh, **** it.

Lena: We still have some unfinished things that our fans are waiting for. The main thing is our new video "Snegopady" should be released shortly. I can't tell the details, there will be an extreme plot. You'll see it soon.
