Pussy Riot: The Jailhouse Interview

This year, Russia launched its first crossover pop stars since the days of Gorky Park—and it's done so by throwing them in jail. 

 Pussy Riot, a feminist punk collective that staged guerrilla performances all over Moscow (culminating in a "punk prayer" in a cathedral, which got three of its members arrested), showed up on every front page from Libération to the New York Post and single-handedly revived riot-grrrl chic.

GQ managed to correspond with them by slipping questions in with their lawyers. Katya's answers got confiscated. Nadya's and Masha's follow.
