She made "Tatu"
[Above picture] - Today, the most interesting project in Russia--Vladimir Putin. Most likely people from show-business work with him, because he became a Star. Objects with his image sell-out really fast--carpets, Y-shirts, pictures, and so on. I think, there was a casting...
Could be Elena Kiper: she untwisted the duo Tatu, then 2 airplanes showed up. At the same time a desire to realize her own project, which started with the name Nichya. [Translated as: No one's – in female form] MTV is still playing the video for the first song of the project with the same title.
She began with journalism for ORT, TV-6, NTV. Somehow, once, while filming material she met with producer Ivan Shapovalov, who offered her to make a music project.
- What did you do for Tatu, that other people couldn't?
- I managed to write the song "Ya Soshla s Uma". Before that, me and Ivan tried well-known authors, but they were writing standard texts, and couldn't help us. "Nas Ne Dogonyat" is also my song. And in general, together with the stage director (choreographer), I was making the scheme for the first shows: I thought of what the girls would wear, what they would say in between songs--I wrote it all on pieces of paper and gave it to them and the sound producers. It was almost like a theatrical show. Today my work is alive. Tatu's brand: their socks, their white underwear, their pleated skirts, their image is shown even in the West. It is not a secret for anybody, that the girls of Tatu are just girls in whom money was invested. They dressed them up, and made them work. But it was necessary to control each of their steps. They sometimes didn't even understand the lyrics of the songs. There is nothing bad in the fact that I suggested to them what it meant. Although, once on the Internet at a Tatu forum, they put up my instructions for the show. These were instructions to only be used by people within the project, there it was written: At press conferences if Lena wanted to write, she had to whisper that in the director's ear, instead of saying it out loud in the microphone.
- How did your own project come about?
- I wrote a song for someone's birthday, and asked the girls from Tatu to sing it. But one of them became ill, and I sang it right at the chilly apartment of the guy arranging it. He had the flu and lay down to sleep, and showed me what keys I needed to press. The next day, when we presented the recording, everybody was in shock. Because first, no one had ever heard me sing before. And second, the song turned up such that Vanya right away decided that Tatu is going to sing it. For some time I thought about it, but then decided not the give away the song.
- The video for that song is remarkable. Where did you find that stunning bridge?
- Sometimes I think that such a bridge does not exist, that this is abstract, that I materialized my imagination. But the unique thing is that, this bridge really exists. It is being built in Ulianovsk in the middle of Volga, but its building was stopped 10 years ago because there wasn't enough money. We were accosted by the FSB [Russian Federal Security Service, the Russian FBI basically -Vicious] for 3 months, because apparently this bridge is some kind of strategic object. The bridge is 50 meters tall, and we had to climb on these tiny little poles, and jump over unbelievable gaps in between the structure. It was so scary, such an adrenaline rush.
[By the picture with Tatu]: Of course, if they didn't have appeal and charisma, the project was not going to take place.
