DVD Launch Event Goes Off Without a Hitch

The chaotic Russian duo Tatu arrived in Japan on the 15th and held an event to launch their first live DVD Truth: Live in St Petersburg (on sale on 11th October) at a live house in the Ikebukuro area of Tokyo.

The two girls, who caused a furore three years ago, when they cancelled a live appearance on a music programme at the last minute during their first visit to Japan, held their press conference on time and it was actually the press pack which had to dodge the questions. The rather mean-spirited question "Aren't you going to cause any trouble this time?" was met with the crisp reply "That's all in the past" (Yulia). Lena invited a reporter to a hot spring, saying, "Everything in Japan is good, so it's fun. This time, we're going to Oedo Onsen [a hot spring attraction in Tokyo]. Won't you come into the bath with us?", which elicited gales of laughter from all present.

On the 16th, they will participate in the recording of the TBS Radio programme "Erekata" (to be broadcast on Friday 25th at 03:00 [N.B. Japanese programme schedules are sometimes unclear, so this could actually mean Friday into Saturday, rather than Thursday into Friday]), and appear at the Jingu Fireworks Display in Tokyo. They return home on the 23rd.
