...Not everyone here knows what "loft" is. Maybe somebody doesn't know about "spoilers" (information disclosed too soon; it spoils the experience of watching a movie and ruins the intrigue). I think spoilers are not relevant in Finding t.A.T.u. case. The photos in the web reveal ...10% of the movie, maybe. Keeping in mind that the script dramatically differs from the book, in the end we'll get a whole new story spiced with this fucking great surrealism. You'll see (c)Volkova.  

Movie's scoop and other interesting things will be posted here

Callous Gleb

The reason for anxiety: American director Roland Joffe films a movie about t.A.T.u. based on the book of deputy Mitrofanov.

Aleksei Mitrofanov, the author of t.A.T.u. Come Back novel: "Joffe asked me to play in one episode, but despite my refusal it's useless to argue with him, he's a dictator".

Julia Volkova, t.A.T.u. vocalist: "We play ourselves in the movie. I played in Eralash videos long time ago (ha-ha), but it's very interesting to try myself in real cinema.

Valery Polienko, author of t.A.T.u. lyrics: "Frankly speaking, this whole thing with Mitrofanov's book and American director makes me think of NIVA's tuning" (NIVA - Russian car brand)

Cinema Rules

Movie about t.A.T.u. based on deputy Mitrofanov's novel is being filmed.

In Moscow and Yaroslavl the filming of Finding t.A.T.u., Russian-American production movie, started, with Roland Joffe as a director. It is confirmed that besides Julia Volkova and Lena Katina, Anton Yeltsin and Mischa Barton are casted. "There's no connection with LDPR party here: I'd been into cinema before I got into politics", said Alexey Mitrofanov, whose book "t.A.T.u. Come Back" became a basis of the script, "Actually, this movie is not exactly about t.A.T.u. Young heroines get to know each other through the band's music, but this story, despite its significance, is more of a background here. This is a movie about freedom, about the first free generation in our country".

Tatu": We are beyond competition

With a tour through Kazakhstan the scandalous group "Tatu" arrived. The idols of the teenagers remained in each town no longer than for one day. In the rider of the stars there were no special instructions, because the girls are not fastidious about eating, drinking but they are devoid of caprice typical for stars. Read the details from the lives of the celebrities in the material of our reporter.


Q: What will be heard at the concert?
Y: From the album "Lyudi invalidy". And there will be one new song from the new album. It hasn't been released yet, we are now during the process of recording. At the moment we are thinking about it's name.

Q: Creative crisis?
Y: Such thing tends to be rare. It happens, when you get very much tired - after 25 concerts in the month. Then you think: Oh Lord, how much I want to come home, lie on the sofa and nobody shall touch you. But you realize, that this is your life, your job, your career and without it there is nowhere. One - two days pass by and you know where is the stage, where the people, where is all this surroundings.

Q: How do you relax?
Y: We relax like all the typical normal people too - in the cafe, all sorts of bars, going somewhere for bowling, going to cinema, theatre, karaoke bar.

Q: Do you read books?
Y: I hate reading.
L: Classic authors.

Q: Does it happen that people don't recognize you on the street?
Y: When we are in our private life we are on our own. It didn't happen to me.
L: It happens to me, even quite frequently.

Q: In which way differs the audience in different countries?
Y: The mentality in the countries is in any case different - both education, rules, life standard, and everything else. They are different in emotions, their eyes, the smiles, the welcome. Everywhere everything is different.

Q: As far as we know you love dogs very much.
L: Yes, I have a Chow-chow and two half-breeds. Those who live with me we have chosen on the street. And one half-breed else came to live with us, but we couldn't expel her. Recently one gave birth to puppies and I gave them away to fans.
Y: I have three dogs. A Chihuahua, a Yorkshire-terrier and an Irish-setter.I had a Labrador too, but we gave him away, because we couldn't cope with him.

Q: Why don't you kiss eachother lately?
Y: And why we have to do? It's not interesting every year.Plus, when we kissed we were about 15 years, it was school-time, lack of understanding of our orientation, but now, when we have children and family and everything else, why? It's no more interesting when the girls are grown up or then with 40 years. Should we now kiss eachother for a whole life? Like old lesbians (laughs).
L (laughs): With 60 years we come out on stage, having become plump and will kiss, pensioners. And by the way, very recently we kissed eachother, when we celebrated something.
Y (laughs): And I think I got an infection from this...(she has a sore throat - author)

Q: Who in your group is the leader?
Y: We don't have such one, we do everything together.

Q: You prepare again to make a reality-show?
Y: We plan to do something already in autumn this year, but the topic I don't know. Just now we are thinking about it. At the moment we shoot a film upon a book of Lesha Mitrofanov "Tatu - Comeback". Now there are current shootings, and we have enough to do. It will be released in 2008 in May.
L: It's the story of two of our fans, the story basically turns around the passion for our group. We have a very good director, famous actresses, Americans and Russians. That is, this film will be in Russian and english language. It will come out in 2008, and the premiere may be at the Cannes-festival. In the leading role Mischa Barton will play with us.

Q: How is your attitude towards sports, do you take part in the support of the Olympics in Sochi?
Y: We have a good relation towards sports, but we don't participate (at the campaign).
L: We are sick for Russia. We will simply look TV, whenever this will be possible.

Q: With whom from the famous artists do you have a good communication?
Y: We don't have such thing - with one we communicate, with the other not. When we sit together at a party we talk. In fact with everybody: Hello - hello, bye - bye. But such close relations we don't have. Seresha Lazarev is for me a real friend.

Q: Competition?
L: In general we don't feel competition with anybody. We are beyond competition.
Y: We have an equal relation to everybody - we sing and they sing. They have their own creative work, and we have our own one.

Q: Plans?
Y: Now shooting the film, we have a grand tour through Kazakhstan - six concerts. Then we will fly to America to shoot clips at the end of August, in the beginning of September we record the album, which will be released in autumn. That's all for now.

Q: Do you plan to relax in Kazakhstan in national style?
Y: How do they here relax in national style?
Q: On horse.
Y: On horse. Well, let's see.

Q: You have not tried the national cuisine?
Y: And what's national at yours? Tell us.
Q: Meat

Q: Sad incidents connected with fans?
Y: Exactly such, to kill, such ones didn't happen. They pulled our hairs, tore the chains, such things happened. Then again - these are not bad incidents, just demonstrations of love. Someone cries, someone stands trembling and someone may touch us.
L: We have very fine relations to the fans, they come to our homes, we talk with eachother. Basically no such particular problems arise.
Y: We have our circle of contact with certain fans.

Q: Are you scared of such hysterical fans?
Y: No.
L: We simply wish to help them, but we think, we help them with the creative work, because they don't cry with grief but with gladness.

Q: In Moscow are you always with the body-guards?
Y: Only at concert-tours. Moscow - it's our city. The native city, and there it's not surprising for noone that artists walk on the street. There are many actors, actresses on the streets or at parties. This is common like this. There nobody reacts like "A-a-a!"

Q: You participated at the gay-parade?
Y: We really were there in this city. But more than five minutes we didn't remain there, simply because a crowd of skinheads, people with crosses, with knives turned towards us. They poured sacred water on us. Hardly we took a seat in the car we went off. They threw stones against us. Completely insane people, incomprehensible why.

Q: But is it possible, to take this parade under your wings?
Y: Well, we told already, that - if the people wants to reach something common and be one as a whole, and there will be such occurrences, then we will not be one whole, there will be war all the time, for instance between gays and rappers.

Guys, hello-o-o-o!!!
I was really bad, couldn�t get back to YOU for such a long time with life news :-) Everything�s very cool� We�re playing shows in Kazakhstan now, a lot of flying � you know the kind of plane we had to fly? AN-24 � it is kind of an air balloon on wheels! Jolts, rattle � damn! The only thing that makes it easier- thoughts about the audience. We haven�t expected that so many people love us there! Big venues, people � and everybody�s so kind, energetic, shouting and dancing till they can� All�s positive!

Yesterday was our second day of shooting for the movie, at ZIL plant. We�ve been waiting for our turn for six hours� It�s such a rush we�re in �going from one place to another� The movie�s coming alone so f**king awesome, beautiful, fun, and the team is very professional.

As for my life� I�m the happiest, there�s a human being inside of me, who already gives me signs� Sometimes it�s strange to realize that soon I will give birth to my second child�

Well, enough of telling secrets� Don�t get blue, have some fun in what�s left of summer!
Tender kisses,
Y.

...I know that t.A.T.u. is not a day-fly

...that there's beauty in their music - and many will agree with me

...that you can't judge if you don't know  

...that it feels good when wind is in your hair

...that to understand is not "a simple motion"

...that everything will end when there's nobody left to manage waste

...and that nobody who reads me will witness this day

(although the last line is not my knowledge, but my hope)

Interview
July, 19, 2007

Yulia Volkova cleared up the rumors on this possible split of the group t.A.T.u. In the press conference made in Kazakhstan by the Planet of Music Festival, Yulia and Lena clarified all the rumors that surrounded to the group, “T.A.T.U does not have plans to separate. Yulia although mentioned she does plan to sing solo but keep her carrer with t.A.T.u.

We already play in a movie Finding Tatu. We play ourselves. The script is based on a book by Alexey Mitrofanov and Anastasiya Moiseeva Tatu Come Back.Tatu has no plans to break up. Yulia might start singing solo along with her Tatu career.There’s no place left in the world, where we would like to go.We are not spoiled. A shower and food are main things for us. We eat anything but prefer water and tea for drinking.While in Moscow, we move without bodyguards. Everyone there is used to see stars walking the streets.We don’t have any ideal model for men.Our audience can be different: everything from small children to grandmothers.We regret nothing in our lives.We have been driving cars for 2 years now but we don’t drive that often.We plan to release the third album with a working title “Waste Management”. New songs and a soundtrack will be written for the movie.

Yulia Volkova:
 I’ve got 5 tattoos all over my body: on my leg, on my back and a new one – on my shoulder. It’s a Japanese tattoo shaped as a dragon – a symbol of eternal life. While I’m pregnant I try not to run and not to jump on stage. I try to be calmer. My energy is in my eyes. We have never been bugged over the phone. I’ve had totally two numbers in my life and never had any problems. I’ve got some throat problems but this husky tone has already become a sort of special thing.

Lena Katina:

We are long time friends with Yulia. We are enough close. We run diaries for our fans and we promise to write a book. I’ve already handed out all puppies I had – they were mostly take
by fans.

The Door

 

...They're shooting Finding t.A.T.u. episodes at the abandoned brewery plant named after Badaev...

... It is a huge territory with an empty square of half Red Square size covered with broken asphalt. Around this square there are gloomy desolate buildings of various sizes and styles that were built in different times within a spread of one hundred years. The glass in many windows is broken out or fallen out because of age, the stucco is gone, the remaining paint faded away. Several chafed tank-cars with what is left of "Badaev's Beer" signs grew into the ground and turned into the weed reserve; their line reminds naïve people that there's no beer here and it's not expected that there will ever be...

...On top floors of one of the plant's buildings a se

 

t for Ivan's apartment was built. The roof, where his apartment leads, is one big terrace with scarlet tents, soft couches and Moscow view. This is a loft of old rocker and m'fucker, the leader of Moscow punks and unrecognized artists. Mystic meetings, secret orgies and ordinary booze parties (depending on the participants) take place here. Some restless personalities spend days and even weeks at Ivan's place sleeping on the floor and eating feast's leftovers...

...But this house I know very well. It's in excellent condition. Man, this is almost my own house, but it looks different, resembling a mini-copy of Overlook Hotel in "The Shining" movie. There's a joyful bustle inside: many people and everybody's getting ready to a big celebration. Waiters, cookees, some women, unfamiliar and fat, running, carrying plates, pots, cutting vegetables, pouring something in the glasses... In the evening there will be guests, lots of guests.

I can't say I don't like it, but I'm sick of this hustle and bustle. 

Tender July day outside. Nice warm silence is diluted with birds' twitter and the sound of flying dragonflies.

I don't give a shit about all these preparations,  I'm walking around the house and looking at it's familiar parts: here's the door to the bedroom section, and this door leads to the kitchen right from the street, and here is garage gate... My three-year-old daughter staggers beside me, holding my hand... She's busy with her own thoughts and doesn't bug me with her usual never-ceasing chat.

We wandered in a remote part of the area - and I freezed.                                                                                                                                                                         

It's strange that I, who've lived in the house for more than ten years, don't recognize this part and can't remember that I ever entered this door. Moreover, I can't even imagine where this door leads. Kinda scary... oh, what the hell.    

I lift the girl up on shoulder, holding her with one hand, and go seven steps down, like it's a basement entrance.  

The time-worn door, with rusty tin on the surface; it's style doesn't resemble that of the whole house. There are no signs of handles or locks on the door, and along the perimeter of the door there's a cotton seal upholstered with leather-imitation cloth. If the door isn't stuck due to no exploitation, then I easily open it. Having put my palm on the place where doors have handles, I started to push with the increasing pressure. The door didn't surrender, but I got more frightened, the heart went faster. I pushed more and suddenly - p-f-f-f-f-f-f. The door opened, letting the air into my face - warm and a bit humid air with a slightly sweet basement smell.

Danger anticipation yielded to my curiosity. I leaned a little so that the girl, who silently sat on my shoulders, didn't hit the door pillar, and made one, just one step from the sunny day into the darkness...   

To be continued.

Silence

 

Last night in the previous post I answered WMVOVA's heartfelt cry - and Buka asked to translate it. Let it be a separate post.

WMVOVA:Where's the exact information about the album (release date, track list, authors, style)? Stop lying! Stop buying time! Soon, soon...Soon WHEN? Where are the songs? I'm sick of waiting! I'm tired of listening the same songs for the 6 y

 

ears! When is the album coming out? In 2010? I swear if I don't see the video by the new year and won't hear the song, I'll put down all the posters - fuck it. t.A.T.u. are super, but I can't be a fan of a dead band. Why is Bilan releasing a song so often? Why are we waiting for 4  years and then get 20 songs at once? Can it be a more regular process? There's been not a single day when I didn't listen to their songs... and still WHEN? WHEN? WHEN?

P.S. Obezyanka Nol, Belochki, White Robe, Waste Management, Invalids, Clowns, Robot, Malchik Gay... WHO'S NEXT?

Hey, WMVOVA. Good that you decided to write. You are speaking for a certain group of people that love t.A.T.u., but who, I think, slightly disoriented. I'm glad we have such a passionate and gushy blogger (no irony). When I read such reproaches, I get very angry. The team that writes news for the official site, gives the most correct information possible. Yes, plans sometimes change and dates are moved, but the site informs you about it as well. It's amazing that there are people that accuse official site of lying, and it's no less amazing that other people thoughtlessly join this yell. No detailed info you requested will appear before the release. t.A.T.u. is not an accountant department and will preserve the secrecy of creative process. I'm already saying too much in this blog - don't expect more. Why do songs get released not so often? Because to make a t.A.T.u. song that you would like to listen every day, time and silence are needed... I don't know if you'd thought through the sequence you wrote or it was a spontaneous one, but it turned out to be a very cool vivid sequence, very "tatuish"... Would you want it replaced by White Stork, I Met You, On the Wings of Love, Flowers in the Sky?...

G'day Guys,

How we all doing?
Just a quick blog from the road. Sitting here in our hotel room in Moscow after returning from Kazakhstan where we played 3 concerts. One in Astana, Almaty & Zhezkazgan. Really interesting trip guys. Played 2 stadium gigs and then we played a show in this city called Zhezkazgan which is in the middle of Kazakhstan.

Check out the pics at this link - http://web.mac.com/troymaccubbin or just go to www.Troymaccubbin.com

I heard a number of 150,000 people turning up for the show.
Not sure if that is close, but I couldn't see where the crowd ended. All I could see was people lining the streets everywhere that went on forever. It was fantastic!

So we are here in Moscow for a few days then its off to Kazakhstan for more shows.
Also a big hello to all my latin friends out there! If you get a chance check out this web site and sign the guest book!!
http://www.troymaccubbin.es.tl

While I'm pluggin websites go here -
http://www.hot92jamz.com/pages/ricknuhn.html

Rick wants to know your top 10 favorite bands of all time!
So e-mail him here at rick@top10nowandthen.com
Tell him Troy sent you too!

On the TATU news front, its all good news guys. We got to hear some of the demos, one song that I really liked & found out that we are going to play on some tracks.
Can't say more than that, but I'm very excited with all the news I heard.

The legendary "tatushka" became the first visitor of the new Obnazhenny entertainers with Jana Rudkovskoy ", which starts today at the MTV channel and will be issued twice a week.   But, as it became known "IF", before leaving for the free swimming, Yulia will come out in the film "Tatu" kam bek "for literature and write two albums in the group : the first to sound      film, and the second album scheduled team. These hopes are catching up to the birth of baby, whose father, a businessman Parviz, meets now.                                                      

About the break t.A.T.u. and the beginning Yulia solo career : I have not seen this transfer and it is even admit that trying to say this in television, in advance, I say all garbage neither nor, I'm especially off commenting.

The reason the argument erupted is because of an erotic scene in new film "Finding t.A.T.u."-This scene was to be removed. Having learned that his pregnant love is going to appear on the screen in a naked state, Parvis had forbidden it completely.
 
Pregnancy
Let's not forget that recently the young man have learned that they soon become parents. Julia is on the third month of pregnancy. After Parviz has learned it is the second time Julia becomes a mother, it has resolutely changed the way of life and he has began to prepare for forthcoming issues carefully. The father of the child, Parviz, Never left Julia alone for a minute. They are always seen holding hands.                                                                                          
 
Scandal
 
As soon as Julia had received the script of film and saw her interesting position in the film, she thought she would become a world celebrity. Only one problem has upset Parviz, he has has explained that he is very worried how shooting the film may have a bad effect on Julia's pregnancy. Then when he learned, that the script of film provides erotic stages which should play Julia, he refused it.
 
Victory
 
t.A.T.u. girl had not refused her erotic role and felt she could still persuade Parviz to let it go ahead. To help, Julia wanted to explain to Parviz that she will not be having sex in a bed but will participate only in a beautiful erotic plot.
 
Eventually Parviz has agreed to allow Julia in such shootings, having taken the promise, that all scenes will be carefully done and doctors will be there incase of emergencies.

There's no end to sufferers' groaning on the forum, "t.A.T.u. sound like they are saying good-bye, both "Don't Regret" and "White Robe" will have good-bye flair, they let us know that the third album is t.A.T.u.'s swan song, h-e-l-p!..."

Guys, do you seriously think that an actor, who plays Hamlet, gets killed for real in a play?

I hope it's not necessary to explain further.

Jam_One, welcome back. Your post about making t.A.T.u. this stupid word on the fence is cool:

"Wouldn't it be fun if in the last scene of the video they showed a fence not with a curse word, that the majority thought of at the beginning, but t.A.T.u.?"

If t.A.T.u. had a fence in the video, I'd lay down my life to have this written on the fence. Thumbs up, Jam_One.

***

About White Robe lyrics: No sense to fog it. Yes, the lyrics were compiled from several poems written by talanted eza. The piece that you heard is the first verse.

The robe itself will appear in the chorus, and you, jokers, who write about blue pants and condoms - chill out. This is a dramatic song.

Attention, please! The information in the previous post regarding timeline is not correct.

Post production period will take about 6 months.

We’re sorry for inaccuracy.

What I think about WM... (I'm sharing with you innermost information, because the latter is t.A.T.u.'s inside processes that are not usually revealed; well, fuck industry rules).

I like this title for several reasons:

- one, it's simply beautiful (I remembers one old joke about  New Russians)

For English speaking people Waste Management is a set expression that they can easily remember on linguistic level. For Russian speaking people the translation of the title - Upravleniye Otbrosami - is not a usual one, it evokes a slight culture shock (really, who the fuck cares to manage garbage? People usually manage useful things, and waste is waste...)   

By the way, paradoxically, the absence of such a word combination in Russian language explains through the chain of subconscious connections a habit of many our citizens to throw rotten sausage right out of their windows or to throw packs of cigarettes or McDonald's leftovers from their car windows.

But back to the point. So, Russian title - Upravleniye Otbrosami - has an almost ideal balance of "a", "o", "r" and "l" sounds, which makes this title easy to say and to hear, and the shoking meaning of UO (in Russian UO could also be deciphered as "retarted") makes the title very catchy.

- two, W and M - is the same letter, only written upside down, which gives us a great opportunity to create album's logo

- three, WM is a very simple metaphor - managing the figurative waste of our life, all the waste that trashes our life (I think the link to "orbital waste" from Russian lyrics of "Kosmos" is clear).

Isn't it, in the end, t.A.T.u.'s main mission?!

And if somebody decides that Waste Management is a t.A.T.u.'s metaphorical claim to manage this "somebody", then he or she will be right: It's right about those fellows...

Let me address those who rebel against this stupid, ugly and pathetic title and who want love and roses "till death do us part" along with a sweet kiss on sunset background in album's title and lyrics - YOU WISH.

And not because love and a sweet kiss are bad. No, it's all beautiful. And t.A.T.u.  are also about love and only about love. But t.A.T.u. have always said it their way and will continue doing so.

Still, this will send you shivers up and down.

Last night Insider posted English lyrics of the new t.A.T.u. song “Ne Zhaley” - Don’t Regret.

Don’t Regret

You don’t regret
For your embraces
Time will forget
Phrases and faces

No more saying words
No more crying tears
All that was before
Is no longer here

No more singing songs
Silent lips are dry
All that was before
Slowly passing by

No more saying words
No more crying tears
All that was before
Is no longer here

No more singing songs
Just for you and I
Silent nights are long
Broken hearts are dry

No turning back
No cancellation
Cat’s in the bag
Train’s at the station

The verse from White Robe was compared to everything, from some Propaganda (I still don’t know what it is – and it is too much trouble to find out) to Rihanna.
 
I think the moment, when t.A.T.u. become predictable, will be the end of  t.A.T.u.

July, 2, 2007                                                                                                                                    

Same again... t.A.T.u. are lying, their management sucks, it’s the end of the world...
 
Dear fans, don’t be so ugly. In fact you are a part of t.A.T.u. And t.A.T.u. is about love and everything that goes with it.
 
I do not want my blog to become a journal of gossip refutation and panic prevention.
The news team cannot and, I think, should not inform in a real time mode about all news (it’s not CNN) and, moreover, it shouldn’t comment all the crap being said and written about t.A.T.u. a hundred times a day by many people. Official site won’t write or comment on it. Don’t expect this.
 
Turn on your head, People, and don’t give a shit about ж.п.
 
"I really don’t know much about the new album. We haven’t recorded anything on the new album just yet which has been disappointing. So I am really hoping we do. I think its crazy if we don’t get to record on the new album because us guys have become such a huge part of Tatu. We know the sound and have such great ideas. But who knows what will happen. There is always lots of politics in these situations and you just have to roll with what  happens. I really hope we just deliver a great album for the fans" - said one of the Tatu musicians Troy McCubbin 
 
After reading this everybody decided that management lies and Troy says the truth. And what if Troy lies? (Just kidding). No, Troy doesn’t lie. He just doesn’t have full information.
 
And I have.
 
So.
 
Troy is a great concert musician, real performer, but he’s not closely involved in the process of creating the album. All guitar tracks, which you’ll hear on the album, will be recorded live, but due to recording technology it’s absolutely not necessary that it must be Troy who plays in the studio. Arrangers, composers, producers very often record their parts themselves. For example, the guitar part in Galoyan’s tracks is recorded by him personally. As for the drums, they will be recorded by Steve. But not now. He’ll record them at the very end, when the vocals will be finished and actual tracks’ polishing starts. Sven is involved as a sound-engineer and an arranger for some tracks; his contribution to the album is very significant.
 
Actually Troy listened to demos and sketches for the new album and, as far as I know (and I know everything), reacted very positively. He forgot to mention about it.
t.A.T.u. team is not a barrack, and everyone can say whatever they want according to their personal rules.
 
As for album recording, as we know, it’s not like coal mining. The plans will always be overset. The girls went there and back, many things are done, but not all. There will be more of there-and-forth traveling.
 
The video will be filmed, most likely, in September, when Yulia will be "very pregnant".  The song for the video is already recorded. It’s name is White Robe.
 
I tell nothing more.
It’s a secret.
 
Insider
 
P.S. Want to answer the smart ass who said it’s pathetic that the management uses c-words in a blog: I am Insider, one of the bloggers here. To use c-words is my sacred right. I didn’t ask you, boy.

Lena Katina can't forgive Yulia her second pregnancy
   
    Group Tatu suffers another split. Lena Katina is jealous about Yulia and Parviz and firmly refuses to socialize with them.
   
    At least Lena demonstratively ignores Yulia off stage.
   
    - I'm not a .... (Lena uses a c-word here) as this one. I don't get pregnant every second year, that's the way Lena commented on her colleague at their latest gig.
   
    Parviz
   
    Such disappointment from Lena has explanations. Three years ago, when Yulia announced her pregnancy (young lady was pregnant from her boyfriend Pasha), the group's artistic activity became nearly non-existent. That time Tatu was on the top of their career and naturally Katina didn't like all that. However, Katina found strength to understand Yulia's feelings and actions. When Yulia got involved with a married Parviz, who just got a son, Katina's indignation had no limits. Two girls had a serious conversation and the fragile peace in their group was completely destroyed. No surprise! The group got hardly a second chance now. It's difficult to catch the same wave two times in the show business. Tatu just made a come back and got into the charts as Volkova announced another pregnancy break.
   
    You could easily see that something went wrong between to singers. The girls arrive at gigs separately where backstage they say only a word or two to each other and those are only business related. They don't show previous warmth and understanding any more. Katina doesn't demonstratively greet Yulia's new husband.
   
    - I can't generally get how you could live with a married man, - said Lena to her friends. – He hasn't even divorced his previous one but got Yulia pregnant. And she, the stupid girl, is all happy about that.
   
    As Zhizn got to know, Yulia took one year off. Now the group plays their last gigs. Well, nobody knows if Yulia will return on stage or not as Parviz' first wife Masha Weber was forced to give up her carrier under her husband's pressure.
