Tatu Transformed Into Good Girls! Utaban Appearance Recorded

Time of publication: 12.10.2005
The Russian duo Tatu participated in the recording of the TBS programme Utaban (Thursdays at 19:54) in Tokyo on the 11th. During their first visit to Japan in 2003, the two girls caused chaos by walking out on a live broadcast of the TV Asahi programme Music Station. Yesterday, they arrived at their dressing room bang on time, began recording their song at 13:00 and then recorded the chat part of the program at 18:40, just like model students.

The two girls appeared in the same sexy costumes that they wore for the video of their new single All About Us and took part in an interview with the hosts Takaaki Ishibashi and SMAP's Masahiro Nakai. When Nakai said "We're begging you, please don't leave halfway through.", Yulia (20) responded, "Unfortunately, the last time it turned out like that, but it's OK. Precisely because we respect Japan, this time we are doing our best."

Preparations, such as the lighting, took longer than expected and they had to wait a long time. However, the girls did not utter a single word of complaint and were in good spirits as the production staff introduced them to such famous Japanese catchphrases as "Ai-iin" and the Angars comedy duo's "Jangajangajaan" gag. Lena (21) said, "The sets for recordings in Japan are sparkly and gorgeous. I want to take them home to Russia." The material recorded yesterday will be broadcast on the 27th.

Today, the two girls will perform a mini-concert for just 300 fans in Tokyo's Shibuya district. On the 13th, they will go to Los Angeles to record a promotional video.
