Serebro
Marina was the last one to join the group.[5] She saw an internet announcement, where they were looking for a singer and took the chance. Her application was noticed, and later she joined the group. With Serebro, Lizorkina took part in the Eurovision Song Contest 2007 and placed the third. They also released four No. 1 hits in Russia and the album Opiumroz in 2009.[3]

Marina loves driving herself, describing it as a passion. She's also very fond of animals and loves to draw oil paintings.[2] She once said: "I love painting in oil. The main characters are mostly humanoids from other worlds. But I must say that my drawings make very strange impression on people. Each and everyone finds something different in them – and that is great."[2]
Marina is fluent in Russian, English, and Spanish.[3] She is also a fan of football and once stated that she was very happy because Russia played in the semi-finals of UEFA Euro 2008.[3]
