Vika Jigulina: Stereo Love has been so far my greatest accomplishment in music. I hoped that it will be a great success but I have to admit that it was even better than what I expected.
PMR: Who do you think is more likely to be a successful musician, a person with music education or natural talent?
Vika Jigulina: In my opinion, to become a successful musician you must have a little of both talent and education. It’s just like “ing & iang”.

Vika Jigulina: I think my lip salve would be the one and only.

PMR: If you were a chocolate, which one would you be ?
Vika Jigulina: Certainly a milk one.
