Dit vind ik dan wel een betere aprilgrap. Ik zou er zelf ingetrapt zijn ... (bron : www.max.be)

MAKS! geeft op de MAKS!DAG een door Bill Kaulitz (Tokio Hotel) opgebruikte flacon haarlak weg. De bus werd geschonken door Eddy Daelemans, medewerker van kapperszaak De Cliënt in Antwerpen, de zaak die haarstylisten levert op rockconcerten in Vorst Nationaal.

"In onze zaak ontvangen wij nogal wat bekend volk, en onze discretie en expertise wordt zeer gewaardeerd door de Belgische concertorganisatoren. We werken jaarlijks op Werchter en Pukkelpop en grote concerten in Vorst Nationaal en Flanders Expo Gent. Ik werd dus gevraagd voor het Tokio Hotel concert van 14 oktober vorig jaar. Ik wist op voorhand niet hoe populair die band was. Maar toen ik 's namiddags arriveerde zag ik al heel wat fans in de rij staan."

Uitdagende haarsnit
Eddy nam Bill twintig minuten onder handen. "Zijn haarsnit is zéér uitdagend. Een vriendelijke jongen, maar echt praten hebben we niet gedaan. Mijn Duits is niet zo fantastisch. Maar als je ziet wat hij doet op een podium. Heel Vorst Nationaal op zijn kop. Die bus haarlak is mijn aandenken aan die ontmoeting. Maar het is een hebbeding voor échte fans, dus MAKS! mag er iemand anders gelukkig mee maken." 

De flacon wordt verloot onder de deelnemers op de MAKS!DAG op 19 april in de Lamot in Mechelen tussen 17 en 18u in de Lamot.

geloofwaardig vind je niet?

Hier is Bill aan het woord :

HI, ICH BIN´S, BILL VON TOKIO HOTEL!
Leider darf ich zur Zeit noch nicht sprechen aber am schreiben hindert mich ja niemand....deshalb dachte ich mir, dass ich euch hier auf TokioHotel.de ein paar Zeilen schreibe.
Wie die meisten sicherlich schon gehört haben ist meine Operation richtig gut verlaufen und ihr könnt euch sicher vorstellen, dass mir ein riesen Stein vom Herzen gefallen ist. Klar, wie meine Stimme nach den zehn Tagen Schweigepause klingen wird weiß keiner so wirklich aber die Ärzte versichern mit immer wieder dass alles okay sein wird - das baut natürlich auf aber absolute Gewissheit ist das eben auch nicht. Ich bin aber guter Dinge, dass alles so klingt wie vorher.
Ich könnte euch sicher vorstellen, dass ich mich schon tierisch auf den Tag freue an dem ich endlich wieder reden darf...es ist schlicht und ergreifend eine Folter den ganzen Tag den Mund halten zu müssen und das volle zehn Tag! Toll ist, dass ich während dieser Zeit total bemuttert werde ;-) Gustav & Georg besuchen mich regelmäßig und Tom ist sowieso rund um die Uhr für mich da.
Danke an euch alle für die vielen „Genesungswünsche“ die im Internet kursieren. Es ist kaum zu glauben wie viele Leute sich um mich sorgen und ich könnte wahrscheinlich Monate lang lesen und würde trotzdem kein Ende der Grußbotschaften sehen. Ein riesiges Dankeschön also für die gigantische Unterstützung - ihr seid einfach riesig....die besten Fans die man sich wünschen kann!!!!

-zal poging doen tot vertalen in het Nederlands-

HI, IK BEN HET, BILL VAN TOKIO HOTEL
Ik durf deze tijd nog niet spreken maar met schrijven hinder ik niemand ... Vandaar dacht ik bij mezelf hier voor jullie op tokiohotel.de een paar zinnen  te schrijven.
Zoals de meesten wel al gehoord zullen hebben is mijn operatie goed verlopen en je kan het je zeker voorstellen dat ... -geen idee, srr- . Inderdaad, want hoe mijn stem na tien dagen zwijgen zal klinken weet ik zozeer nog niet, maar de dokters verzekeren mij dat alles ok zal zijn - dat scheelt natuurlijk, maar een absolute zekerheid is dit voor mij toch niet. Maar ik ben van goede hoop dat alles zo zal klinken gelijk vroeger.
Ik kan jullie zo voorstellen dat ik schoon genoeg heb  zwijgen en de dagen aftel tot wanneer ik weer mag praten ... Het is zeker en vast een hele foltering mijn mond te moeten houden en zeker voor de hele dag! Het voordeel is wel dat ik heel erg bemoederd/verwend wordt ;-) Gustav & Georg bezoeken me regelmatig en Tom is sowiso alle uren daar voor mij.
Dank aan iedereen voor de vele "gezondheidswensen" die het internet rondgaan. Het is moeilijk te geloven hoe veel mensen er zich zorgen om me maken en ik kan maandag waarschijnlijk de boodschappen lang lezen en gewaar worden. Een dikke gemeende dankuwel ook voor de gigantische ondersteuning - jullie zijn zonder twijfel ....de beste fans die men zich maar kan wensen!!!

Ooh, kei lief -kucht, was ni zo moeilijk- Het is natuurlijk niet tot op het woord juist vertaald, ik ben geen wandelend woordenboek hé ...

Het nieuws komt dan toch iets vroeger dan verwacht! -goe vor jullie- Een klein berichtje van het TH-team :

LIEBE FANS,
uns erreichen immer wieder Nachrichten von Fans, die angeblich von Bill, Tom, Gustav und Georg angerufen wurden oder von ihnen Mails bekommen haben etc. Dieses kommt den Fans zu Recht meist nicht echt vor und sie erkundigen sich dann bei uns, was sie davon halten sollen. Bitte geht nie auf so etwas ein! Die Band ist weder in Chats aktiv, schreibt in irgendwelche Foren, noch senden die Jungs Emails oder rufen bei euch an. Es ist leider immer davon auszugehen, dass sich irgendwelche Leute auf eure Kosten schlechte Scherze erlauben und das ist nicht fair! Also, seid misstrauisch und lasst euch nicht aufs Glatteis führen!
Euer TH Online Team

Wat zeggen ze nu allemaal. Wel, zover ik het bergrepen heb zeggen ze dat de jongens al de fanmail ontvangen hebben, maar dat ze hierop niet antwoorden. Waarom, wel er komen zoveel brieven en emails binnen dat ze zouden moeten kiezen aan wie ze antwoorden. Dat zou dan niet eerlijk zijn voor de fans dat de ene wel en de andere niet antwoord krijgt. Maar in de plaats komt Tokio Hotel wel naar chats en fora. We moeten daar maar hun berichten lezen. -zij verwoorden het wel iets beleefder maar ik ga nu niet letterlijk beginnen vertalen-

Persoonlijk vind ik dat ze wat ongelijk hebben, maar dat is mijn mening ...

Ik had het gisteren gezegd dat je hem nog tegoed van me had.

“I’m going to start gambling professionally – goodbye rock & roll!”

On the eve of conquering the U.S., German teenage pretty-boy rockers Tokio Hotel wager Blender’s weak American dollars at the casino. “Oh mein Gott! Oh mein Gott! Oh mein Gott!” squeals Bill Kaulitz, the 18-year-old glamtastic frontman of German emo-metal-pop band Tokio Hotel. His hands, with fingertips pointing towards the casino ceiling, flap against each other like hummingbird wings, his Sonic the Hedgehog coif is too stiff to keep up with his bobbing head.

It’s the final hand of Tokio Hotel’s day at a Hamburg casino, where they have decided to ruthlessly gamble the $848 Blender generously provided them. Laid out before Kaulitz are the ace of diamonds and jack of spades. The singer’s eyes, lined like a raccoons with smokey kohl** makeup, widen as he lets out a high-pitched “Woooaaahhh! Blackjack!” Gasping for air, he declares through a translator, “I made so much money in such a short time, I’m going to start gambling professionally. Good bye Rock & Roll!” As Kaulitz and his band members - identical twin and guitarist Tom, bassist Georg Listing, 21, and drummer Gustav Shäfer, 19 – edge away from the gambling table, a swarm of casino employees appear out of nowhere, bearing sheets of paper and pens, faces fixed with hesitant smiles.

The boys, who have sold 6 million CDs and DVDs worldwide and packed arena throughout Europe, are used to the attention. The twins have been performing together since the age of 9. In 2003, two years after forming what became Tokio Hotel, Bill gained his first taste of fame by reaching the quarterfinalists on the German version of Star Search with a precocious rendition of “It’s Rainin’ Men.”

In the controlled environment of the casino, closed off for their personal use, the frenzy that typically envelopes Tokio Hotel (think The Beatles circa 1964 or Backstreet Boys circa 1997) has been expertly headed off – there are vows of secrecy from the staff, vans with blacked out windows and bodyguards who sweep the area before the band’s arrival. The security measures are as much for the boys as for their fans. An offstage sighting of Tokio Hotel is likely to make girls’ glockenspiels explode. You might be forgiven if you’ve never heard of Tokio Hotel. They are a phenomenon not easily understood, unless of course you are a 14-year-old girl with a soft spot of androgynous boys and a penchant for learning German. Because of the band, the Goethe-Institut in France can’t keep up with the demand for German-language classes. After 5,000 Israeli fans signed a petition for Tokio Hotel to come there, the group flew to Tel Aviv, putting on such a raucous show that more than 20 crowd members required medical assistance. In July they played beneath the Eifel Tower and more than 500,000 people showed up. And somewhere twinkling in the heavans, compliments of one zealous fan, is a star named Tokio Hotel.

If their rabid reception in Hollywood and New York – cities where they played three shows in February – is any indication, ther low profile here may soon change. Thousands of hyperventilating girls (some traveling as far as 1000 mile) waited in line, tickets in hand, half a day before the venue doors opened. They further proved their devotion by singing songs, not just the soaring choruses, in the tongue of the fatherland.

(The bands first U.S. album, the all-English Scream, comes out in late April) Clearly, Tokio Hotel’s angsty anthems - “Together we can make it while the world is crashing down” (Ready, Set, Go!) – connected. The admiration was mutual. “In New York the girls dressed sexy in very short skirts – in minus degrees!” Bill marvels. Georg nods his head solemnly, adding “Respect. First Class.”

Inspired by the twins’ casino-themed 18^th birthday last September, Tokio Hotel figured a gambling spree was the best way to blow Blender’s dough. Unfortunately, given the exchange rate, we don’t have much to offer: “is that all that I’m getting?” Bill squawks after we hand him his €145 share. “Ok, it’s not a big start but I’m going to make €4000 easily.” Georg agrees, “We are in a positive area when it comes to winning and money.”

A few spins at the roulette table later, the twin’s strategy of always betting on red isn’t paying off. When black comes up for the third time in a row, the both scream “Nein!” “But you must understand,” Bill says, his manicured hands aflutter, “I take red because it’s the color of love. But now I must choose black, the color of Tom’s soul.”

When the steel ball lands on 20 black, Tom, who is sticking it out on red, turns philosophical: “Bad luck in playing, good luck in love. It fits me losing because I am very lucky with the ladies.” Blender asks his secret: Is it the perfect blonde dreads? The enormous, drooping jeans? “It’s like with our success, I just don’t know,” he shrugs. “It’s nothing I ever choose.”

After their high-stakes session of Twenty-One and the departure of the autograph seekers, the guys count their chips. Blender finally finds out what they were hoping to buy with their winnings. “A house,” Georg offers. “A car,” says Gustav. “A house in the sun,” Tom adds. “A small island somewhere in the South where it’s nice and cozy,” Bill chirps. While they didn’t win enough for homes, the band hardily beat the house. Everyone came out ahead, raking in a total of more than “two thousand dollars” as Georg puts it in his attempt at English.

After the croupier hands over a whopping €680 ($1020 to Tom, the days clear winner, the front man sings “I am the champion!” and beats his chest. Trailing him are Gustav with €485, Bill with €430, and Georg with €370. “Georg, you can only buy a tent,” teases Bill. “But you can stay in my house….in the closet, with all the cleaning supplies.”

Later, at the posh Hotel kempinski Atlantic, the boys sit in a green room created by their burly bodyguards and celebrate their good fortune with a champagne toast. The staff is atwitter and the guests sneak peaks at Bill. It’s time to get to the origin of his goth-goes-glam looks, which inspire heated “is he or isn’t he” debates on message boards. (The verdict: only haters think he is.)

“When I was little, I was a vampire for Halloween,” says Bill, laughing. “That’s when I started wearing make-up and dyeing my hair." Blender retakes that when a co-worker saw a promotional photograph of the singer for the first time, he declared, “She’s hot!” Being mistaken for Germany’s Next Top Model not only doesn’t bother Bill, it inspires the return of the hummingbird wing hand claps.

“Sometimes it tough to be reduced to being just beautiful,” he says coyly. “It’s all about the music. That’s what I tell the other boys – so they don’t get too jealous.”

Nu ja ... Er zijn nog zo teksten maar ik vind ze echt niet meer de moeite. "Voeten omhoog, niveau passeert!" -zwak...- Geen verdere commentaar. Voor de rest is het nog stil rond Tokio Hotel. Er zijn wel enkele nieuwe data bijgekomen (die vind je in de lijst) Het weer zit echt niet mee voor een vakantie. Maandag weer school. -dan is het sowiso mooi weer- Ik ga er nog twee dagen van genieten. Vanmiddag zet ik -als er nog nieuws is- iets op de blog en ik zie wel dat ik morgen een plaatsje vind ...

Bon, het gemakkelijkste deel is al in orde. Nu staan er hier op de blog de onderdelen : Bill Kaulitz, Tom Kaulitz, Gustav Schäfer en Georg Listing. Het is de bedoeling dat hier wat meer informatie over hen gegeven wordt. Om het wat interessanter te maken. Maar, verwacht nu niet dat dit morgen al helemaal in orde is! Dit vraagt wat werk, dus het zal wel even duren. Het neemt wel niet weg dat deze blog zijn gewone gangetje verliest! Geniet er van !!

Bon, een tweede keer proberen kan geen kwaad hé... Wat ik tevoren al probeerde zeggen : Naast het hard werken aan de "onderdeelblogs", hou ik me natuurlijk ook nog altijd bezig met nieuws zoeken. Dit is wat ik vond:

ª Een filmpje over Bill en zijn operatie (in het Duits wel) Zo moeilijk is het niet te begrijpen. Men zegt gewoon dat Bill hun verteld heeft dat hij angst had voor de operatie. Dat door de operatie concerten zijn afgelast en dat het eerstvolgende concert dat van 1mei te Washington is als Bill natuurlijk volledig genezen zou zijn. Anders wordt ook dit concert afgelast. filmpje :http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x4y89j_tokio-hotel-zdf-leute-heute-0304200_music

ª In de "Bravo" staat een heel artikkel over "Het einde van Tokio Hotel" -drama seg,..-

ª Wie zich de casinofoto's nog herinnert (anders moet je eens naar de blogjes van vorige week gaan kijken) die foto's zijn niet voor niets gemaakt, er hoort namelijk een hele "mop" bij. Die heb je nog tegoed van mij.

Ik ga nu verder werken aan de stukjes van Georg en Gustav. En hopelijk overtref ik mezelf doro ze vanavond nog af te krijgen. Beschouw het dan maar als geschenkje vanwege het kapotte internet ...

Bon, zoals jullie misschien al wisten heeft al het prustwerk aan het internet uiteindelijk resultaat geleverd. Ik heb ondertussen al 2 berichten gepost waarvan één hele lange. Momenteel ben ik de schade wat aan het proberen inhalen en zo veel mogelijk nieuwtjes te achterhalen. Ik heb nog een paar zaakjes, maar ben aan het bedenken hoe ik dat in hemelsnaam zou kunnen regelen. Er komt dus nog meer.

Binnekort -maandag al- begint school weer -ben nog studente- dus dan gaat er natuurlijk nog nieuws komen, maar dan ten vroegste 19uur. -ik ben pas thuis om vijf/zes uur en dan nog eten en werken maken, da duurt wel ietwa- Jah, ik kan moeilijk 's ochtens nieuws zetten want ik moet al zo vroeg opstaan ...

Euhm, ik vermoed dat het dit wat was wat ik wou zeggen.

Ohja, ik ga nog wat aan mijn blog prutsen, maar dat zal je wel merken. Als het me volledig gelukt is dan zet ik het wel in een bericht.

-thx iedreen-

Berichtje van Bill aan MuchMusik

Hi, it's Bill from Tokio Hotel!

Just wanted to say "Hi" to all our Canadian fans - everything is a little chaotic these days since I had to have surgery on Sunday to get my vocal chords back in shape. Luckily, everything has gone well so far...what a relief! I am not allowed to talk for the next ten days and after that I have to start training my voice again.

It's definitely a tough time but I am getting so much support from all you fans out there, also the other three band members are coming by on a regular basis to check on me. Tom is especially there for me...practically 24/7.

I just wanted to let you know that I am really sorry that we had to postpone our Canadian concert dates but I can promise you that we are trying to catch up on them as soon as possible. Stay tuned and I hope to see you all soon!!! Oh yeah, thanks to everyone who got our brand new album Scream that was released last Tuesday in Canada - it's amazing to have the best fans EVER! Keep on rocking and take care!

- Bill

Mjah, niets dat we nog niet wisten zeker ...

Ik heb niet lang hoeven wachten op de Engelse versie van het interview met Bill. Het is wel redelijk lang, maar zeker de moeite waard!

"GROUPIE SEX DISGUSTS ME"

A rule for journalists says that interviewing an 18-years-old is as reasonable as milking a stone. But it's different with Bill Kaulitz. His first kiss or the addiction to fame: the teen star who is often labeled as gay, talks more eloquent than most of the German showbiz veterans. VANITY FAIR met Bill shortly before his surgery and had e-mail contact with him after the surgery.

VF: Mister Kaulitz, how do you feel after the surgery of your vocal cords?
BK: Well, just how you feel after someone shoved a metal rail down your throat while you were under general anesthesia, to cut something off of your vocal cords. Everybody knows this feeling. I'm really glad I'm over and done with this. But I'm still scared about my voice and I feel bad for the canceled concerts.

VF: For how long will you have to rest?
BK: I'm not allowed to speak for 12 days after the surgery. After that I have to do four weeks of rehabilitation. I can't wait for this.

VF: Let's talk about the beginnings. It's said that creativity feeds from the memory of hurt and mortification. What was yours?
BK: The thing that hurt me most was the divorce of my parents. I was seven years old and I didn't understand it. It influenced me a lot. There's a song about it on our first album. It's called "Gegen meinen Willen".

VF: Wwe know that your stephather Gordon Trümper is a guitar teacher. What is your biological father doing?
BK: He's a truck driver and lives in Hanover.

VF: When you were 8 years old, your family moved from Magdeburg to Loitsche, where only 700 people live. How did you experience this move?
BK: I felt terrible, because I'm not a country-type at all. You can imagine how Tom and I stood out. They looked at us like we were some aliens who are completely nuts. School was terrible too. I had to get up at half past five every morning, to catch the bus to Wolmirstedt, and wasn't home before half past four. How I hated this! And always the same faces at school. It was the worst time of my life.

VF: How did the teachers react to the brothers Kaulitz?
BK: Tom and I were always together until 7th grade. Then we were parted as punishment. It was a real slap in the face which really influenced us. Until then we did everything together. We're identical twins and really close. Of course we fought the disciplinary transfer, but the teachers said that they wouldn't be able to stand up to us because we were both bigmouths. I wasn't somebody who raised his finger and then talked in a hushed voice. I always shouted. My mum was called to school every second day.

VF: It was your specialty to appeal class tests if those weren't given back to you in due time. Where did you get this know-how from?
BK: I always knew that I don't need the school, because I'd be a singer. Because the teachers annoyed me to no end, I studied my rights. I knew what they were allowed to do and what not. I sometimes had a teacher that was completely awful. Some of them didn't want to say "Good day" to me because my hair was styled up and my fingernails were painted black. They said that I couldn't go to school like that. One of them didn't want to teach me because I look like I look. He said things like "Your head isn't only for nice hair." I was an anti-pupil and did not put up with any of this.

VF: How were your marks?
BK: Great. I always had a grade point average of 1,8. That's what annoyed the teachers most.

VF: Were the teachers able to hurt you?
BK: Not at all. I wasn't a sick freak, chewing on my nails. I was very self-confident. I went to school like this because I knew everyone would look and the teachers would talk about it. I enjoyed this. I wanted to attract attention with my styling. The people were supposed to talk about me.

VF: A short time ago, you finished secondary school via correspondence school. How important is it to be able to differ omelette from Hamlet?
BK: Well, one should be able to tell the difference. But the school system is too less individual. Why should I study maths when I know that I will never ever need it again in my life? I dropped music in 8th grade. Everyone was dumbfounded. But we only learned the CVs of some people by heart - zero inspiration. I always got bad grades for singing because we had to warble folk songs. It was horror!

VF: Does the old cliché , that music was the ticket to escape the melancholy of the province apply to you?
BK: Yes. I always thought: I just have to get away from this jerkwater town, where everyone knows everyone! The worst thing for me is everyday life. I hate everyday life. That's why Tokio Hotel ist he right thing for me. Every day is different: new cities, new people.

VF: Thanks to paparazzi and so-called reader reporter, you're now on a watch 24/7. Is this impertinence or completion?
BK: When I was a little boy, I always imagined how everything I do is being recorded by cameras and how this is going out to the world. I wanted boundless attention. Now I achieved it. How can I be annoyed by this?

VF: Will someone ever be as important to you as Tom is?
BK: No. It tops everything. I couldn't imagine a life without Tom. One can't describe how close we are to each other. It's something extrasensory. We often have the same thoughts and dream the same things. We actually don't have to talk to each other anymore.

VF: Many identical twins sense their symbiosis as a torture and provide murderous sceneries.
BK: We argue of course. And if we have an argument, it's bad. We attack each other and punch each other. One year ago we attacked each other with chairs in a hotel room. But we don't bear a grudge. We slam the doors, one of us disappears and ten minutes later we talk to each other again.

VF: Who's closer to you: the natural Bill or the painted one?
BK: Definitely the painted one. the natural Bill is like a masquerade to me. I would also walk around like this if I wouldn't be famous. It totally belongs to me.

VF: Who sees you in your original state?
BK: My family. And that's it.

VF: Famous kids are the most corruptive species of artists, because they destroy themselves the older they get. Will you perform a fall from time to time, to keep your image interesting?
BK: It's definitely good to show that you're not perfect. But I don't stress about this. To plan something like that so that your fans don't run away, is bad. What I hated from the beginning, were older bands or some people of record labels who wanted to explain to me how this works. There's no such thing as advice! In our first meethings with the record label, they wanted to give us a stylist who was supposed to work on our appearance. I still don't have a stylist who tells me what to wear. It would constrict me. We also decide about every concert and every contract by ourselves, because I think it's really bad not to be self-determined.

VF: Who is allowed to say no to you?
BK: Job-related: no one. Neither the management nor the record label. The only ones I'm still listening to are my best friends and my family. My mum can tell me: "Bill, that's sick!" and I'd think about it.

VF: Do your parents still try to parent you?
BK: I have to say, our mum never really did this. Doing homework was optional. She left us free space but always watched over us. There's a huge confidence between us. We are like friends. There's really nothing I wouldn't tell my mum. And I never had a secret she didn't know about. When I came home drunk for the first time, she said what she thought about it, but I didn't need to be afraid of her.

VF: Does your mum ask you to leave your hair at least on christmas alone?
BK: No. She really doesn't care. I colored my hair for the first time when I was 9 years old. They were alternating between green, blue, white and black. I got my eyebrow piercing when I was 13. She was really laid-back.

VF: About 200 female teenager collapse from ecstasy during your concerts, they hold up posters with slogans like "Fuck me through the monsoon". How does it feel to know that millions of girls project their sprouting sexual fantasies onto you?
BK: I don't think about it much, to be honest. Sometimes we look at each other and have to laugh because we just can't imagine that someone has posters of us on their walls. But I always thought it would be cool to hang at someones wall. In the past, I often sat in my room, thinking about what my idol Nena is doing, where she is and what she's thinking. I can't quite believe that other people now sit in their rooms and think about me. To me, I'm so normal, we are so unspecial to each other. We are oblivious to ourselves.

VF: How often do you think about yourself in third person?
BK: Sometimes. But accidentally. When I'm unmotivated to do something, I think: Bill should do it nonetheless, because it's good for the band.

VF: Your aplomb appearance in public appears to be eldrich for some people. Is there a difference between the character Bill and the real Bill?
BK: You keep some things to yourself. But apart from that, there are no great differences perforce. The last three years were a run without break. There wasn't a cut when you arrived somewhere and had some private time. Even on tour we had cameras all around us, 24 hours a day. How can you experience something that not everyone knows about only a few hours later? But that's what I always wanted. Thus I have to cope with it.

VF: Those we envy rarely feel enviable. What's the most annoying thing about being Bill?
BK: The main problem of people like me is to trust. It's hard for me to believe someone and let myself go. During the past years I didn't make any new friends and I didn't fall in love. When I meet someone, I'm really careful and skeptic and ask myself: What's behind this? One unfortunately often meets people who turn out to be weird or tell something to the press. If I wouldn't be this famous, I would have probably fallen in love with someone I know a long time ago.

VF: Who betrayed your trust the worst?
BK: I never let myself go so far that someone would have been able to do that. I wear a shield. To go out and get to know someone without telling someone beforehand is the biggest thing you have to forgo. Still, my current life is what I always wanted.

VF: Is the problem of trust the reason why stars often hook up with stars?
BK: Yes. Angelina Jolie doesn't have to worry that Brad Pitt only uses her for becoming famous. A celebrity prefers someone who has the same life and is into this lifestyle as well. My girlfriends never understood why I went to our rehearsal room right after school and why I preferred to perform in clubs at the weekend, instead of sitting in front of the TV with them. Of course it's so much more difficult today. Who wants to live this life with you? And of course the person would also have to understand that you can't just get out of this life.

VF: When were you last in love?
BK: Three and a half years ago. I haven't found the one big love. I don't think everbody finds it. And if so, only once. In my situation, I would need much luck to find it.

VF: With 18 years, don't you prefer to make out endlessly anyway?
BK: I don't know. Precisely because of this life I would prefer to find the one big love instead of making out. I want to share my little time with someone I know about: This is the one!

VF: Did you already say "I love you" to a girl?
BK: Yes. But I didn't mean it. I should have said "I like you." The older I get, the more serious I take those differences. Tom probably always says "I love you" to a girl to get her into bed.

VF: Do you compete for the same girls?
BK: We like the same type. And our girlfriends were always friends with each other. It was godawful, cause they did always gang up on us. Our first kiss happened with the same girl. Tom was first. The day after that, she started kissing me. Then we were both over and done with it. Oh god, we thought it was shit - as awful as the first kiss is.

VF: How old were you back then?
BK: Eleven. She was three years older and experienced.

VF: When had Tom his first sex?
BK: He was 14, if I remember correctly.

VF: It's said that Tom goes through women like there's no tommorow.
BK: I let him do whatever he wants. That he has the nerve to get someone else every night. I wouldn't fancy this. But we were always different when it came to that.

VF: Your colleague Robbie Williams once told us that there are two kinds of groupies in Germany. One kind wants to take a photo during the sex to have a proof to show their friends. The other kind would ask "Robbie, are you sure your feelings for me are real?" during the sex.
BK: Tom also tells me this. Since we're on the road so much, I didn't take anyone to my bed. It disgusts me, to have someone I don't even know in my bed every night. I didn't reach this point yet. I wouldn't have the confidence to take a girl up to my room for one night. The only private thing you have while on tour, is your hotel room. And to let someone sleep there for one night - no, I'd be really skeptic.

VF: Did you already have sex?
BK: I want this to be my secret.

VF: Does it surprise you that some people think you're gay?
BK: Not at all. Most of them have this cliché way of thinking: make-up plus styled hair equals gay. I wanted to set this statement, that this is not the case. Everyone can do what he wants. One thing doesn't necessarily have to do with the other.

VF: What would you do if you were a girl for one day?
BK: I'd definitely not hook up with my brother.

VF: But?
BK: Oh my god, what would I do? Probably the same as I do now, cause I don't tell it apart.

VF: What would you like to forbid girls?
BK: Not being jealous, because jealousy is very important. When I'm in love I immediately claim everything and don't let go anymore. It would drive me crazy if my girlfriend would tell me: "Bill, I don't care about all those screaming girls. I totally trust you."

VF: Were you ever deceived?
BK: No. I also never deceived someone. Faithfulness is the most important thing for me.

VF: How did you annoy your girlfriends?
BK: I speak really loud. The whole day. And always with hands and feet. And I never let people talk. Everyone's annoyed by that.

VF: Which is harder: loving someone else or loving oneself?
BK: Oneself. It's really hard to stand by everything you are. There are incredibly many moments in which I'm insecure and would love to dig a hole to crawl in, pull a blanket over myself and stay there for a year. Sometimes I'm glad we're in this rush and have one concert after the other, this way you don't have time to think much. You just don't have time for loneliness.

VF: Can you still live without a celeb-sitter?
BK: I can't just go to the bakery. So of course someone else does this. But I'm still suitable for daily use, because my problem is that I'm incredibly perfectionist. I can't let other people do things. It's abnormal - and gets worse. Everything has to be fixed into detail, cause I need to know exactly what's coming up. Or else I go crazy. Tom's also this stressed out. Although we pay so many people to relieve us of some things. But we created all this, so it's hard for us when other people lay hand on Tokio Hotel.

VF: Do you also control your finances yourself?
BK: Yes. I already did this when I was 13. I have access to all accounts and control this just like I control my career.

VF: Do you know how many millions you've got?
A woman with clipboard from the record label shouts from the background: "No talk about money!"

VF: When will you buy your parents a villa?
BK: As soon as I can afford it. I definitely want to live together with my parents. We're so close, I wouldn't think of it being a strain. There are no limits where I'd say: "Oh my god, now please go out."

VF: Let's assume that you're kidnapped. What would be a reasonable amount for a ransom?
BK: As much as all my friends could get together. Of course they should get their money back in the end.

VF: What do you think about the fall of Britney Spears?
BK: I can understand how something like that can happen, because I live the same life. Other people probably think: "She has money, she achieved everything, why doesn't she just relax?" I couldn't imagine myself being a solo artist and to be alone on the road all the time. I don't trust myself to carry this huge pressure alone.

VF: Madonna said in 1991: "I will only be happy when I'm as famous as god." Are you congenial?
BK: Of course it's a funny statement. But I can totally understand it, cause there's no stop. You don't just say: "Well, now I'm famous in Germany and that's enough." You aspire to be everywhere as succesful as possible. Even if I'd be immensely wealthy and would own my own island, I'd still go on. It's right: Fame is a drug. The detox would be a blow, I would hardly be able to handle.

VF: If drugs weren't illegal which would you like to try?
BK: Something relaxing that leads to me not needing to control everything anymore.

VF: Are you a star in your dreams?
BK: I once had a nightmare: I lie in bed, in a room made of glass and all around me are photographers, who take tons of pictures of me. I say to our team: "Shit, shit, can't you just get them out of here?" But one guy says: "No, I can't do that. You've got an appointment and you overslept." But I never missed an appointment. I always have three alarm clocks, so that I don't oversleep. And I'm never unpunctual.

VF: Why did no one ever see you dance?
BK: I never dance. I just sit in the corner - unless I'm really drunk. I do it then. I think, dancing is a girls-thing. Even though is might sound chavvy: Only girls have to dance everywhere.

VF: Do you somethimes think about your own funeral?
BK: I have to say: Yes. My friends, who are the same age as me, also think about it. You imagine who would be there and who would really cry for you.

VF: Which music should be played at your burial?
BK: "Magic Dance" of David Bowie from the movie "Labyrinth". It's a really funny song and "Labyrinth" is a movie from my childhood and I still love it to pieces.

VF: What will you wear in your coffin?
BK: I wear everything black and a leather jacket. My last will would definitley be that my hair is styled. I'll hopefully have enough hair left. If not, someone should definitely put a wig on my head.

Ge ga mij dus moeten vergeven maar gisteren is het me niet meer gelukt om te komen bloggen. Ik wou dat ik vandaag het nieuws kon geven van : Mijn internet is terug, maar neen ... Gisteren kwam het juiste stuk dan toch aan. -whou, e kwartiertje en das in orde- Da was dik tege mn klak! We zijn gestart om 17uur en hebben het maar opgegeven om 20.30 uur. Wat ik toch niet doe voor mijn internet -snik-

Bon, ik maak het goed met het volgende :

ª In de Joepie gaat deze week een reporter de streek verkennen waarvan Tokio Hotel afkomstig is. Persoonlijk vind ik het een echt zwak artikkel ... -mar jah, wie ben ik- Vooral Bill en Tom vertelden ooit dat ze elke dag wensten om daar weg te gaan. Is het dan nog nodig om nog eens aan hen te vragen over hun geboorteplaats enal?!

ª Ik heb een interview gevonden van Bill. Jaja, er heeft namelijk een tijdschrift enkele vragen naar hem opgestuurd en hij heeft die dan maar schriftelijk beantwoord. Momenteel is het enkel maar in het Duits, Engels zal zeker nog volgen (en misschien Nederlands) http://www.vanityfair.de/articles/leute/bill-kaulitz/2008/04/02/08107/

ª Nog een ontdekking van mezelf : Ik merkte dat alle berichten (op alloy.com) van Tokio Hotel gepost zijn op een maandag. Elke week eentje op maandag. Goed om weten, want dan kijk ik ze zeker dubbel na de maandagen!

ª weeral waren er verscheidene artikkels over Tokio Hotel in verschillende Franse Bladen.

ª Tv episode 20 staat op de youtube site ! Enjoy.

Bon, vandaag staat mijn dag volledig in het herstellen van mijn internet.
Wish me luck!

Verder vind ik nog allerlei berichten over Bill's operatie. Het meeste wist ik al en ik denk jullie ook. Zal er nog eentje zetten om het af te leren ...

Another news report about Bill and his surgery:

- Tom and his parents were with him the whole time
- After 30 minutes everything had been done
- The Tokio Hotel singer isn't allowed to speak for 10 days

He made it. Yesterday afternoon Tokio Hotel singer Bill (18) had surgery on his throat. A cyst on his left vocal chord had been removed. His twin Tom and his parents were by his side the whole time.

"Bill's doctor is one of the best doctors in this department. The surgery went as planned and the doctor is confident." Tokio Hotel producer and manager David Jost told the B.Z. a short time after the surgery.
But Bill is still worried. Understandable. Because of the surgery it could be possible that the voice has changed. It can be higher or deeper.

"Right now, you can't tell if Bill's voice will sound the same as before", said David Jost. Bill had moral support by "his talisman", his twin Tom and his parents.
"They are with him in the hospital the whole time." said Jost. He will be allowed to leave the hospital today or tomorrow.
"He has to go to the doctor almost every day this week for aftercare.". And Bill is not allowed to speak a single word in the next 10 days.

But so that he can still "talk" Tom gave him a small black board as a present. Chalk instead of speaking. He wants to be back on stage in may...

Speciaal in het Engels vertaald

-ik ben so lief-

Bon, dat is nog niet alles voor vandaag -jepz, goe gehoord- Ik ga straks nog de krantenwinkel leegplunderen en ik bericht jullie dan wel! Tot later vandaag

Gisteren was het dus één april, en ik heb mijn grap binnengekregen. Maar ik kon er niet mee lachen ... Ze belden dus met het nieuws dat de rooter gemaakt was -voro mijn draadloos internet- ikke van : "jeej, eindelijk!" Mjah, hebben die pipo's de verkeerde gegeven !!! *grmbl*

Ook zijn er grappen gemaakt over Tokio Hotel (zoals ik al verwacht had) lees dit maar eens : http://www.podiuminfo.nl/news_detail.php?news_id=4778 Ik vind hem wel niet zo geslaagd ...

Deze is iets beter : (http://www.tokiohotelinternational.com/main_page_news.php)
Some "crazy" Tokio Hotel fans always believed it, now it came true ...

After his successful vocal cords surgery Tokio Hotel singer and frontman Bill Kaulitz (18) eloped with his longtime lover and gangster rapper Bushido (28) to the Maldives.
He left a short note for his twin brother Tom (18) on his bed in hospital, saying he now wants to start a new life after his marriage with rapper Bushido earlier this year, in February - and won't come back to Germany.

What a shock for Tokio Hotel fans!

A lot of trouble with screaming fans and stalkers, a stressful tour through Europe, concerts in the United States, the recent complicated and dangerous removal of a cyst on his left vocal cord, the hard life of a teen idol - all of that was too much for him. From this day on Bill's twin brother Tom will replace him as the frontman of the worldwide successful rock band, he was already seen entering the Capellmeister Studios near Lueneburg with vocal coach star Marc Benotti!

Manager and producer David Jost says: "Well, I accept Bill's feelings for Bushido. It's not something we have a word in. It's quite understandable that Bill wants to change his life after working hard every day to his limits, he's still very young. We now have to consider every option that's left for the band. Tom has a very nice voice, it's different to Bill's so this will give a new feeling to Tokio Hotel songs. He's skilled enough to handle both singing and playing his guitar! Maybe a new band member will join, we currently started negotiations with several still unknown musicians."
Asking him if there's anything he wants Bill to know, he looked very sad and after a short moment he said: "Bill, we really want you back here, but I know this won't happen. Live your newly weds live, be happy and smile like you always did. We miss you, but we won't take away your happiness ... Live to the fullest!"

We're looking forward to their new Single "Breaking up" which will be released wordwide on 1st of May 2008.

Good luck, Tokio Hotel. Be happy, Bill!

Mjah, geen commentaar zeker ...

ps. ni vergeten, het is 1 april vandaag hé! Er kan altijd vals nieuws opduiken ...

01-04-2008 om 10:58 geschreven door Dübel

Alé, al een stukje vervolg op Bill. Mjah, dit heb ik jullie zonet verteld ...

Tokio Hotel Manager: Bill's operatie verliep goed.
De stembandenoperatie van Tokio Hotel zanger Bill Kaulitz (18) is volgens zijn manager goed verlopen. 'Bij de operatie liep alles volgens plan en de arts is zeer vertrouwelijk' zegt producer David Jost. 'De behandelde arts van bill is één van de beste artsen die er op zijn gebied is. Of die operatie werkelijk zo goed verlopen is dat Bill zijn stem nog altijd zou klinken als tevoren, kunnen we nog niet zeggen'

wordt vervolgd!

Bill Kaulitz is zondag geopereerd ipv van maandag. Niets ernsitg aan de hand hoor! Alles is goed verlopen, de dokter is heel voorzichtig geweest (Bill heeft ook een van de beste dokters op dit gebied). Nu mag Bill om te beginnen 10 dagen geen woord zeggen. Gelukkig heeft Tom aan een bord gedacht waar Bill met krijt op kan schrijven. -mjah, hoe duur het ook is, geld hebben ze toch-

wordt zeker vervolgd !

Op de meeste sites zet men het inteview met Tom over Bill en ik kan het moeilijk meerdere keren geven hé!?  Ik kan altijd op aanvraag het interview doorsturen in het Engels en met een echt goeie reden vertalen in het Nederlands...

Wat ik ook nog vond is dat Tokio Hotel genomineerd is voor maar liefst 3 comets. -goezo-

Jah, ook minder goed nieuws. Er bestaat dus een kans van 5% dat de operatie mislukt. -grr, de Billnaaper leidt me af- dus een kans van 5%. Er kunnen littekens gevormd worden op de stembanden, gevolg : ofwel wordt de stem lager, ofwel hoger. In het interview kon je trouwens lezen dat Bill al duidelijk gemaakt heeft dat als hij niet meer in staat is te zingen, Tom zijn positie maar moet overnemen... (ze zijn natuurlijk *** bang dat er iets mis zou lopen)

Natuurlijk lopen de officiële sites van de groep (tokiohotel.de) weeral enorm achter. Daarop kan ik me dus niet baseren. Hierbij blijft het dus voor vandaag. Ik weet niet of Bill vandaag in het ziekenhuis ligt (waarschijnlijk wel). Tegen Bill nog vlug : doet da goed!

Veel beterschap !

Bon, ik ben dus al wakkerder als gisteren deze tijd -lolz-. Mijn internet is nog altijd foetsie, maar omdat het vakantie is, is mijn pa er hele voormiddagen niet. -van mij, van mij, van, mij- Dus als ik klaar ben met studeren -jaja, balen, zwijgt me drvan- dan heb ik alle ruimte! Ziehier :

ª Blijkbaar was gisteren maar deel 1 van het interview met Tom over Bill op de website gezet. Ondertussen is het vervolg vrijgegeven (de link werkt nog altijd, ook voor het hele interview)

In het tweede deel vertelt Tom dat er maar één iemand babbelt en dat is hij natuurlijk -vind die wel grappig en ik ook- Ook dat het raar is zo hele dagen thuis te zitten terwijl ze al jaren gewoon zijn dag in dag uit te werken en weg te zijn. Bill is enorm verdrietig dat hij niet kan spreken en zeker niet kan zingen. (Hij zingt zo graag) Er wordt nog iets kleins gezegd over het ziekenhuis: Bill zou waarschijnlijk twee dagen worden opgenomen. Tom zal altijd bij hem zijn (behalve tijdens de operatie zelf -vermoed ik-) en familie en vrienden zullen hem zeker komen bezoeken.

Ik zal toch nog maar even het linkje zetten : http://www.bild.de/BILD/leute/star-news/2008/03/30/tokio-hotel/tom-muss-ans-mikro-wenn-bills-op-schief-geht.html

ª Er is nu een officiële datum voor de single "don't jump" namelijk 4 april 2008 (er zijn al verschillende sites die wedstrijden organiseren)

ª Ik las ook nog iets over een actie om Tokio Hotel op 14 juni (is voor de Nederlanders) Duits te laten zingen in plaats van Engels -volledig mee akkoord!- Deze actie wordt georganiseerd door het "Tokio Hotel Dutch Street Team". Er worden formulieren verspreid die je kunt invullen en naar hen opsturen, zij zullen zorgen dat dit bij de band aankomt. Je vult natuurlijk je naam in en er is ook ruimte voor een persoonlijk bericht aan de jongens (ook kan je er een foto bijsteken) . Hiermee maak je ze duidelijk dat je een concert in het engels SUPER zou vinden, maar dat het in het Duits nog véél geweldiger zou zijn.
