if you're looking form something far more ridiculous - read on...Nosmo v Kris B
Nosmov Nikitin and Krisstobel Bogdanov comprise the 6 time Grammy award nominated duo of Nosmo v Kris B. Hailing from the Russian port city of Kalinigrad on the Baltic Sea, they are now one of the most established names in alternative Gospel music. They had their first taste of live performance as back up dancers on Janet Jackson's "Rhythm Nation" tour in eastern Europe. Longing to see the United States, they hid in Ms. Jackson's luggage, and upon her return to the US, NvK had arrived.
They quickly settled in Nashville, working simultaneously in music studios, a trout farm and a mortuary, saving every penny to purchase their own studio. While taking a break from their recording session with Conway Twitty, they recorded what would become their first hit single "Please Stop Putting Your Finger in There", Mr. Twitty heard the song, and the rest is history.
After the massive success of "PSPYFIT", the duo was signed to Def Jam recordings and was quickly touring the world, supporting such acts as Iron Maiden, Judas Priest and Grand Funk Railroad. Their fresh fusion of traditional Klezmer melodies, southern Gospel choir and Christin Death Metal was a breath of fresh air in the scene. Soon they were headlining Barmitzva's, bike messenger bars and gay party boats across the globe.
After the media hype surrounding their second album "What Made You Think That Would Fit In There?", Sally Jessie Rafael named NvK as the new house band for her popular talk show. This was destined to be short lived, as repeated drunken brawls with producers, security and Ms. Rafael soured their relationship, and their public image. Things only got worse when Nosmov's Scotchguard addiction and Krisstobel's amputee & midget fetish were also made public in an interview in Newsweek's expose about the "New Polka" explosion. Ever resilient in the face of adversity, NvK made good with fans by giving the profits from their third album "It's Starting to Chafe" to various charities, such as "The Slightly Less-Privileged Republicans Foundation" and "Agnostic Atheists for Jesus".
NvK now reside in Happy Valley-Goose Bay in the Labrador region of Newfoundland. They can often be seen passing overhead in their Cessna, likely on their way to play such exotic locations as Turkmanestan and Arkansas.
