A Yulia Volkova Moment
In Russia, a hot teenage celebrity is worth 6,000 rubles. But a hot, faux-bisexual teenage celebrity is worth one whole AMERICAN DOLLAR! Hence the marketing genius behind TaTu, who no one remembers anymore except for former-Soviet block nations... and me. Other things I have in common with the Soviet Union: a taste for drab outfits, brutalist statues all over my front yard, an instinctive distrust for Germans, and a penchant for exiling my enemies to cold, frozen wastelands. And anyone who thinks its hardly fair to compare stuffing neighborhood kids into the freezers over at 7-11 to the goulags of Siberia is only saving themselves a space between the Ben & Jerry's and the Hungry Man dinners.
