  We study the rough bilinear singular integral, introduced by Coifman and
Meyer , $$ T_\Omega(f,g)(x)=p.v. \! \int_{\mathbb R^{n}}\! \int_{\mathbb
R^{n}}\! |(y,z)|^{-2n} \Omega((y,z)/|(y,z)|)f(x-y)g(x-z) dydz, $$ when $\Omega
$ is a function in $L^q(\mathbb S^{2n-1})$ with vanishing integral and $2\le
q\le \infty$. When $q=\infty$ we obtain boundedness for $T_\Omega$ from
$L^{p_1}(\mathbb R^n)\times L^{p_2}(\mathbb R^n)$ to $ L^p(\mathbb R^n) $ when
$1<p_1, p_2<\infty$ and $1/p=1/p_1+1/p_2$. For $q=2$ we obtain that $T_\Omega$
is bounded from $L^{2}(\mathbb R^n)\times L^{ 2}(\mathbb R^n)$ to $ L^1(\mathbb
R^n) $. For $q$ between $2$ and infinity we obtain the analogous boundedness on
a set of indices around the point $(1/2,1/2,1)$. To obtain our results we
introduce a new bilinear technique based on tensor-type wavelet decompositions.
