Russian teen pop duo T.A.T.U. consist of Lena Katina and Julia Volkova, who were both raised in Moscow. Their 2002 debut album, 200 km/hr in the Wrong Lane, sold over 1 million copies in Russia, and the scandalous video for their first single, ?All the Things She Said,? won MTV Russian?s Video of the Year Award in 2001.

The girls, under the tutelage of Svengali-esque manager and psychologist Ivan Shapovalov (who has also been called the Lou Pearlman of Russia), project a soft-core porn, lesbian-chic sensibility and claim to be in love. Whether it?s the truth or a marketing tool remains to be seen.
