JULIA VOLKOVA - TATU DUMP MANAGER ON TV SHOW

Pop duo tATu got their own back on manager IVAN SHAPOVALOV when he signed them up to appear in a reality TV show in their native Russia - they fired him on air.

The pair, LENA KATINA and JULIA VOLKOVA, hated the idea of being followed around by TV cameras, so they hatched a plot to dump the svengali who agreed to the expose.

Lena says, "It wasn't good. It was more about Ivan and he was talking... I don't think it was a good idea.

"We broke up with Ivan when we had this reality show, actually."
