Hello there!

Thank you to everybody who votes for the t.A.T.u. at Love Radio poll in the category "Band of the Year" and for “Snegopady” as MTV's Video of the Year .

At MTV poll you can vote as much as you can, and only once a day you can leave your vote for t.A.T.u. on Love Radio.

There are two special threads on the official forum where you can discuss current results: MTV thread and Love Radio thread

In 2008 the video 220 won this annual MTV poll! How about we repeat it this year?

Thank you one more time!

Tomorrow, 15 December, is the release date for the English version of t.A.T.u. ’s third studio album Waste Management.

For the enjoyment of everybody, we’ve decided to upload new HQ pictures from the Waste Management shoot done specially for this release. They are here (18.3 Mb) (photography by Vladimir Byazrov) Back then we’ve meticulously prepared for this shoot. We even had a special pre-shoot (19.6 Mb), where t.A.T.u. shop manager Inga and band’s press-attaché Zhenya were the models (idea, set-design and photography by Boris Renski). We know that most of you appreciated the creativity of this shoot and we’re happy to share these photos in HQ with you. Enjoy!

A few more things that accompany Waste Management release:

1) We’re running MySpace Avatar Competition. Feel free to join if you have a MySpace account.

2) We’ve prepared some banners and a twitter skin (743 Kb) and are asking you to help us tell this world sinking in waste that Waste Management is out! Signatures, avatars, blogging, messages on forums and social networks, aerography on your car (well, the latter is probably too much :-)) Thank you in advance for your support!

3) The non-stop version of Waste Management was born in great pains. At some point, when half of the interludes was ready, we were about to change our mind and considered this step a mistake. But then we changed our mind back and finished this version. We’re dying to hear what you think of it. That’s why we’re announcing a new Review Competition. Last time we ran this contest, it turned out there are a lot of people among t.A.T.u. fans that are capable of non-trivial analysis, smart argumentation and beautiful deduction. Write an interesting and compelling review of Waste Management, post it in your blog (doesn’t matter which service you use – lj, blogspot or any other) and send us a link to it at info@tatu.ru with a subject “Review Competition – Waste Management”. Reviews are accepted until 13 February, 2010. Attention please! Don’t forget to put the following tags to the post t.A.T.u. Тату Waste Management. Authors of the best reviews will be awarded with 75$ 50$ и 25$ in prizes from t.A.T.u. shop!
