From Russia With Love Comes Naughty T.A.T.U [More Idiot Pop Stars Come Out Against Iraq Liberation]

[The Russian girl pop group] T.A.T.U. got more flak last week for improvising another smooch fest while performing on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno.

When the live to tape program aired, the camera cut away from the scene.

'That was just stupid,' [TATU group member] Lena Katina says. 'I don't know why they were afraid. America should be open, especially about love.'

She was less surprised, she acknowledeges, by the shocked reaction to the Russian messages emblazened on T.A.T.U.'s T-Shirts, which demounced the prospect of war with Iraq in terms far more colorful than Vladimir Putin has used.

'People are afraid of truth,' Katina says. 'People were like, You're afraid that people will cancel your visas, and you'll never go to America again?'

'But we are provocative, that's our nature.'

FYI, I heard on Jimmy Kimmell's ABC late night show-they showed the whole thing. (being on after 12 midnight there are relaxed FCC standards and practices.)

These girls every move is planned by their Svengali manager. It is already out that they are not real lesbians and are dating guys in real life (I wonder if Sergei Fedorov has had them yet?).

The svengali manager has alluded to dating both of them in interviews.

Its hard to know what is fact and fiction, except the fact that both just turned 18..
