Tatu mentioned in Q mag again (Febuary issue)
100 most Insane Moments In Rock
Spotting a gap in the record market in 1999, erstwhile Russisn child-psychiatraist Ivan Shapovalov han an idea. "An under-age sex project," he recalls. "Why? Because I wanted it and found it funny." In 16 year-olds Julia Volkova and Lena Katina, he found two willing cohorts and tATu were born. Claiming to have been kicked out of Russian kiddie pops Neposedi for "molesting other bandmembers" (according to Neposedi's producer Elena Pinzhoyan they actually left because "we do not keep children over 14") the pair's saucy lesbian outine quickly topped the Russian charts. Single All The Things She Said also reach Number 1 when it hit the UK, propelled by a girl-on-girl video which triggered the anticipated tabloid "outrage". However, a seris of tantrums and "unachievable" demands on promoters - including a request that 300 under-16 girls dressed in school uniforms be supplied for each show- saw UK dates cancelled, while last years Eurovision relaunch ended in embaressing failure. Fresh scandal erupted- boyfriends? pregnancy? - alongside grainy snaps of the girls franternisingwith the opposite sex. Perhaps Shapovalov can re- make them in 2004 as pop's first lesbian single-mothers.....

Eeep! I hope not!
I like to see tATu in various articles and magazines mentioned around the world. It really shows how much of an impact they've made on people everywhere.

Because in the UK at least it was the controversy of their image that got them so much attention.

:yeahthat: and you can't deny that it WAS their IMAGINE that made them top every charts and that was why poeple had noticed them. if there was no imagine, no one in uk will ever pay attention to a Russian duo. |

yea, but from where i stand, their songs were played on the radio way before we even got a whiff of thier videos, and still became a huge hit among those who heard.
also the media really downplayed the lesbian thang, and still had good feedback. i think they eventually just avoided all things tatu because of their image, making them look like somkind of a passing fad.
in fact i think it was their controvercy tht held them back from real hights. |

No offence but to the genral music listeners at least they were a passing fad, its hard to last in the UK music scene if your a new foreign artist its all Pop Idol winners and runners up now .
The contoversy did hold them back but thats more Ivan's fault since He basically relied on it.
