The exotic style of Tokio Hotel!




On the cover: The exotic style of Tokio Hotel

This German band is all the hype in Europe and its four members have already started breaking hearts in our country. Are you ready to fall in love with them? You'll surely do- By Diana Matozo

The leaders of Tokio Hotel are twin brothers Bill (lead singer) and Tom (guitar) Kaulitz. Despite the fact that they are identical twins, they have very different and distinctive personalities. They talked to our magazine (TU) about their music and they also shared some secrets of their love life with us. Find out everything about it!

TU: How do you feel now that your music is known in our country?
Tom: Once we dreamt about international success but we never really thought that it would happen. People in our country know about us but crossing borders is not only amazing, it's also weird! We've never been in Mexico but our music is being played there...it's a great satisfaction. We would love to visit your country.

TU: Do you have girlfriends? How's your ideal girl?
Tom: I don't have a girlfriend and I can't really say that I have an ‘ideal' girl. I can't say that I prefer blond girls over brunettes or redheads, all I can say is that there are a lot of beautiful girls everywhere.

(Pic: ‘Georg and Gustav are a little behind on the girl topic'- Bill)

TU: Is dating easier when you're in this career?

Tom: Of course music helps. In school, it's the kids that are musicians the ones that tend to be very popular and have great success! That's why I decided early on that I'd play guitar (laughs). No, honestly, I have never had ‘girl trouble' and I have never used my fame to get with a girl.
Bill: In my case, music has definitely helped, I had my first girlfriend when I started singing but in this business, there's little time for a serious relationship.

TU: Who's your favorite (female) singer or actress?
Tom: I love Jessica Alba, she's my favorite!
Bill: For me, it has to be Nena, the German singer, I was very influenced by her. I saw one of her concerts on TV and it was a moment that left a mark on me. I was very young and right after that, I started writing my own songs. It was clear to me that I had to be on a stage one day.

TU: Being twins, have you ever tried making a move on the same girl?

Tom: I had a girlfriend and when we broke up, I tried to talk her into giving my brother his first kiss. I wanted him to live that experience because (until then) Bill had never had a girlfriend. It was a way of showing how much I cared.



TU: Is there a message behind your look?
Tom: We have never wanted to create a fake image. This is part of our personality, this is what we feel, this is who we are. If you see pictures of us before being a band, you would see that the change hasn't really been a drastic one.

TU: Would you get a girlfriend's name tattooed?
Tom: If the relationship isn't serious, I don't think I would, I don't think it's worth it (laughs); if it were something a little more serious...I don't think I'd do it either! I am not a big fan of tattoos.
Bill: I love tattoos! And if I were really in love, why not? I think I would do it.

TU: Are you guys faithful (when in a relationship)?
Tom: When you are in love, it's important to be faithful and feel that the other person is being faithful too, it's basic.
Bill: For me, this is something fundamental. Besides, if I am in love, I don't really feel like accepting any other ‘offers'. With me, you don't have to worry about cheating, I believe in being faithful and that's what I practice but... I haven't really been with a girl for quite some time now.

TU: How do you feel about your fans getting so crazy sometimes?
Bill: We're really proud of the fans that we have, they support us so much, they are always waiting for our concerts, they sing our songs, they have an amazing level of energy and that's contagious. They make us feel the need to continue doing what we are doing.

(We love to see all the fan signs and banners at our concerts!)
