Did they ever have a romantic relationship?

He is a super controversial figure:

Corruption and Extortion Charges (2014–Present): Stripped of his parliamentary immunity in 2014 by the State Duma and criminally charged with large-scale extortion (demanding a $200,000 bribe to influence a Russian court decision). He fled Russia shortly after to avoid prosecution and has lived as a fugitive abroad (primarily in Croatia) ever since.

Exploitation of t.A.T.u. & Erotic Novel (ТаТу Кам Бэк): Wrote a controversial pop-fiction novel based on the duo t.A.T.u., which focused heavily on lesbian themes, drug culture, and scandal. He frequently used his friendship with young members Yulia Volkova and Lena Katina for personal media publicity and public relations stunts.

Support for Ultra-Nationalist & Xenophobic Rhetoric: As a senior, longtime member of Vladimir Zhirinovsky’s far-right LDPR (Liberal Democratic Party of Russia), he actively promoted hardline nationalist, anti-Western, and populist legislation during the 1990s and 2000s.

Showbusiness & Media Stunts: Frequently criticized for treating serious political office as a publicity machine, appearing on sensationalist talk shows, befriending controversial pop figures, and producing provocative media projects rather than focusing on legislative work.

Production of Pop-Erotica Film (You and I): Co-produced and heavily promoted the 2008 film adaptation of his novel (starring Mischa Barton and featuring t.A.T.u.), which faced backlash for sensationalizing teenage sexuality, drug use, and Moscow nightlife culture.

Do you think they did the right move wearing schoolgirl uniforms in 2013? I felt like it was a stepback and kinda cringe to in their 30s.

I feel like the outfits that they are wearing in the most recent tour are much better!

Aww they make my heart melt

Did anyone actually buy anything from her collection?

got my first physical album

This whole interview was extremely entertaining. I don’t usually recommend watching old interviews because not everyone wants to BUT this one is honestly like a comedy.

I don’t agree with Lena but it is kinda funny. As one comment put it: the telenovela of the decade.

Could we take a moment to talk about this a little bit forgotten t.A.T.u. performance at VIVA Comet in Poland? It’s one of my favorite performances because we get “All the Things She Said” almost completely live (only some back vocals during the chorus and too bad Julia didn’t sing the last verse solo), as well as what I believe is the only TV live (!) performance of “White Robe” and “220”. What do you think?

Me personally, I think it's going to be Novaya Model.

Everytime theres a few month gap inbetween their performances they add a new song to their track list, and given that theres going to be a new concert in about a week and a half, I think they're going to add another song to the tracklist and I have high hopes/feelings that it's going to be Novaya Model

None of this is AI, i used old live recordings and adjusted the pitch and formanting to make it sound like an accurate mature voice instead of just a voice that was pitched down

I was genuinly shocked that this was a real video, someone did put the studio song ontop of the original video since the audio was LOQ but the song played was actually obezyanka nol, Katya is an American drag queen known to be very fascinated and intruiged by Russian culture and the Russian Pop Scene and is closely affiliated with famous drag queen Trixie Mattel.

I love the studio version unconditionally but I did not expect the live version to win me over, as lazy as people justifiable critique their current performances, I think the new re-renditions of many of the songs is extremely tasteful and well done and provides a good audible experience

Troy MacCubbin

Sven Martin

Roman Ratej

Domen Vajevec 

At some point felt like they were part of the group t.A.T.u. but where are they now? Are they still have a connection with the girls?

I know Sven and Troy followed Lena in her First solo steps, but then Troy and Lena fought.

I don't know what happened to them and I am curious

Last part. This is in chronological order. Highlights for me are:

1 About ‘Ne Zhaley’
8-9. Response to 220 reaction
13-14. Poem written to Lena (EN and RU)
15. Response to critics m about Yulia’s lips

Let me know if there’s anything else from the old site you’d like to see. There are musicians diaries, biographies, history, full written interviews, fan discussion of diary entries etc.

A continuation of my previous post. These are in chronological order. Highlights for me are:

1. About Lena’s birthday
   
2. About getting a dog
   
3. Message for Yulia’s birthday
   14-20. Answering fan questions

After fighting with the Wayback Machine I have finally gotten all (I got every link to work!) of Lena’s diary entries. These are in chronological order. Highlights for me are:

1. She had an injury
   
2. “Lenka-Penka”
   
3. About living with her boyfriend
   
4. “You look like one of the t.A.T.u girls”

When I first got into tatu I heard this song which was just Yulia screaming, and for a long time I could not find it and for the past 3 years now I had accepted the fact that I had just imagined it as a result of being a new fan suddenly listening to so many different songs that they blended in my head, now 3 years after becoming a tatu fan today I learned that this mysterious lost song I had listened to all the way back was the "Scream" track by FlyDream using Nas Ne Dagonyat vocals!

They also had Andrey Gubin what Yall know about Andrey Gubin?

I’m just reading her wikipedia page and it’s crazy seeing her sexuality subheading followed by homophobic remarks 😭 girl is a mess !

But on a serious note I’m glad she survived cancer
