That's probably why MTV didn't accept the tape.

Oh, yeah... I forgot to comment on this one.
Not. Yulia didn't refuse to record the thing in English. The whole situation looked kinda like this:
Yulia and Lena were getting ready to tape the thing. No one of managers was around. Just 2 of them and the camera. Then they began to talk about the language they had to record the thing in. Lena said it should be in English. But Yulia was like... 'hmmm... wait... Singapore is Asia, isn't it? They don't have English is a native language there. So may be it would be better if we record the thing in Russian and then those MTV guys translate it directly to their language?' Lena answered that everyone does it in English. Yulia got a little mad saying: 'everyone? so that's how things are now? if everyone does, TATU do the same?'. But then after thinking a bit she suggested to do it in both languages. In her opinion they should say 'Hi. We are TATU' in English together and then Yulia speaks a bit Russian and Lena does in English. Lena agreed. So that was the way it was done it seems. Mansky didn't show how the whole recording looked but it began with 'hi. we are tatu'. and then Yulia said they couldn't attend the ceremony due to personal reasons (wich was true... at least they didn't say that they were working on their album or something like many artists do). So, I don't think language was the reason the tape was rejected. They could record another one if THAT was the problem
