1. The main idea of this community is Dima Bilan. Everything that related to him - pics, news, fanfics, userpics, userbars, colorbars etc. - can be posted in our community;) We don't discuss here producers, his surrounding etc. So keep things on topic.

2. Large pics (~ <500) should be hide under cut or thumbnailed. This is also related to more than two small pics.

3. You can't use our art products without crediting (arina_margo or bilan_daily) and asking in comments.

4. NO HOTLINKING!! Unpload pics to your own hosting! There are plenty of photohostings: ImageShack, Photobucket, ImgSrc etc.

5. Be polite with your fellow members. Cenzore. At first you'll be warned, then banned.




Dima Bilan was born on 24 December, 1981 in Karachay-Cherkessia. When he was six years old, his family moved to Kabardino-Balkaria where he went to school with his sister. He took part in morning performances, recited poems and sang songs.



He graduated from Gnesins Musical College as a classical vocal performer. Dima made his debut when he reached 4th place at the Russian/Latvian festival "New Wave" in 2002. In 2003, Dima Bilan released his debut album titled "Nochnoy Huligan," ("Night Hooligan") which included covers of "Caruso" by Lucio Dalla and "Fever" by Elvis. In 2004, he released his successful single "Na beregu neba," which was also the title of his second album.

In the middle of March, 2006, Dima Bilan was chosen internally by the Russian broadcaster Channel One to have the honour of representing Russia at the biggest musical contest in the world, the Eurovision Song Contest, that year in Athens, Greece. Out of 37 participating countries, Dima took second place with the dark pop song Never Let You Go.
