Biography

T.A.T.U. has caused much controversy and outrage in the last two years. What would won expect when you place two young teenagers in see through clothes and have them kiss throughout their music video. The group was the brain child of former commercial producer Ivan Shapovalov. Back in 2001, Shapovalov held open auditions at Moscow’s Mostfilms Studios. After seeing hundreds of thousands of girls he picked Julia Volova and Elena Katina. The producer immediately began to construct a way to put the Russian band into mainstream America. On May 16, 2001 the two girls signed a deal with Universal records Russia. They were only fifteen and sixteen years old. Despite the two girls having boyfriends, they were marketed as lovers. Their first single, “I’ve Lost My Mind,” depicts the two kissing throughout the video in the pouring rain. The single was in the top ten for two months in Russia and in the top five most requested songs for three months. The girls second single, “They’re Not Gonna Get Us,” was in the top ten in Russia and peaked at number seven in the United States. The band has caused much controversy due to the marketing. Rather than focusing on their music, they focus on sexuality. Their success in the United States has proven that sex does sell.

it is about time a band stood up to society and made a controversial move to become one of the most infamous and well loved bands that have ever come out of russia.	laneys_fledgeling666
actually tatu aren't really lesbians in fact they both have boyfriends neither are bi even being lezzi is just for their image	fighter_vicious
haha this kicks ass! yeah it's just a joke i'm not some lonely lil pervert like i might have come off as...wtf does tatu stand 4 anyway? ..We never would have guessed..lol	hellz_hunny
T.a.t.u stands for: та любйт ту or somthing like that^ (ok u guys can't understand russian, lol) or in other words "she likes her" (girls that like girls)	snowflake26374
I'd have to agree with fighter_vicious... thats one of the many reasons WHY i hate this band...Image Whores Anyone? Their fame went up in a second after that one song.	rinygrin
t.a.t.u. means this :that girl loves this girl. and Lena Katina has baby. or at least she was pregnant.	lenna
and they weren't lesbians... it was all lie. now they have a group called t.E.m.A. and they don't act like lesbians (thanx god)	lenna
Damn, y'all ruined it. Who cares, it was hot while it lasted. THIS MESSAGE BROUGHT TO YOU BY LOSERSALWAYSWIN'S EVIL ASSASSINATION POSSE, COPYRIGHT, 2005. [SEX IS NOT THE ENEMY.]	losersalwayswin
man that suxs i finally thought somebody wasnt actually was not doing it for publicity but the songs all the things she said was good	thefrothymonkey
Peaches is a lesbian band -_- god you people are stupid	DreamMrSandman
I fucking love them so much !!!!!!!!!!!1	Saint_Death
And by the way, tehy are not really lesbian, it was just teh manager's strategy. Well, was. The band broke up	Saint_Death
isnt it sad when to women have to kiss on stage to get attention so they can do what they love (play music) for a living. its like feminism never happened.	DarknessDove
i agree enit nd it puts ppl off lyk if dey no der lesyz den dey myt nt wana listen 2 der music or suport dem	BabiGurl4lyf1993
but they faded. haven't heard one of their songs on the radio for years. good riddance. that music was fucking annoying. they did what they did for the money. and i know so many people get all riled up when some famous person does something for publicity, but if you can get money from stupid people then why not? but they could both die and nobody would hear about it. hahaHA	givethe_bitch_abiscuit
They may not be as popular now as they were in the U.S. before but they haven't exactly faded. They're still around. Taty have released a new album. They currently are immensely popular in Russia.	snowflakesback
yeah but thats because that is where they came from.	thefrothymonkey
