NEWS:Bill Kaulitz, de Tokio Hotel a la pasarela de Milán - Telecinco.com
El cantante ha desfilado para la marca DSquared2 en la Semana de la Moda de Milán
Bill Kaulitz, vocalista del grupo alemán Tokio Hotel, ha mostrado una nueva faceta desfilando en la pasarela de la Semana de la Moda de Milán que se celebra estos días bajo el nombre de 'Milano Moda Uomo'. El cantante ha participado en el desfile de la colección otoño-invierno de la firma DSquared2, creada por los diseñadores canadienses Dean y Dan Cauten. Bill lució un modelo de cuero negro coronado con plumas del mismo color y con botas y cadenas en el cuello. Por supuesto, no olvidó completar el estilismo con una de sus principales señas de identidad, los ojos pintados de negro, aunque sí lució un peinado distinto al que nos tiene acostumbrados.

The guys of Tokio Hotel may take longer to get ready than you, but the party doesn't start without their swelling guitar anthems anyway.
TRYING TO ENTER the Tokio Hotel is a little like trying to penetrate Fort Know. Upon arriving at the Midtown Manhattan lodging where the band is staying, two publicists will greet you in the lobby, and a handful of people will escort you up to the 18th floor. There, you will pass two humorless bodyguards into a suite where a marketing person sits you down, sizes you up and plants herself ominously in a corner. But when twins Bill and Tom Kaulitz, the German glam-emo band's singer and guitarist (respectively) enter this softly lit terrarium of sorts, they exude a tacid calm, with Zen smiley plastered in their baby faces. "All over the world, the fans, they follow us." Tom shyly explains of the DEFCON security. "When our tour bus comes out of a venue, we have, like, 20 cars that follow us."
The Kaulitz's tranquil countenances betray the frenzy - and rigid machinery - that surround them everywhere, everyday. (Perhaps it's telling that their latest album, their second U.S. release is titled Humanoid.). After nine years together, Tokio Hotel has sold 3.5 million albums worldwide, had a star named in the band's honor (by a superfan), and Bill has been immortalized in Madame Tussauds wax museum. However, the band was certain they'd made it only after breaking America. Says Tom, "I think a key moment in our career was the U.S. tour and the VMAs [in 2008]." (They will trek the states again this spring.)
That popularity hasn't paled. Just a day earlier, the group-including drummer Gustav Schäfer and bassist Georg Listing - appeared on MTV's It's on With Alexa Chung to perform the glossy, angsty single "Automatic", which also provides a taste of their newfound love of synths and vocal effects. According to some accounts, their fans were shrieking so loudly that MTV producers were worried viewers at home wouldn't be able to hear the actual music.
Technically that might not matter. For all the swelling, guitar driven anthems their catalog provides (see 2007's "Ready Set Go" or this album's "World Behind My Wall", Tokio Hotel are also an unrepentant spectacle. Shellacked within an inch of its life, Bill's Mohawk defies all notions of Newtonian physics. The 'do, paired with his flawless makeup and enviable bone structure is messmerizing. "I do my hair and make up myself", the frontman says, nodding his head as he sits with impeccable posture. "I [draw] inspiration from different things. I like David Bowie, and I like vampire movies." Tom glances at his dandyish brother.
Gently disheveled - with cornrows recently replacing his dreadlocks - he considers himself more of a hip-hop kinda guy: "I've had maybe three haircuts in my life, so I'm not like Billy, changing every day."
High maintenance or not, the siblings - who grew up in a German town called Magdeburg - have always stuck out like sore thumbs. They exchange knowing looks. "It was a hard time", they say in unison. Even teachers decried their penchants for hairspray and eyeshadow. "But," notes Bill, "we had each other."
The twin's parents stocked their interest in music by letting them play in clubs.
By age 11, under the name Devilish, the brother's along with Schäfer and Listing, say they were recording songs in a studio. "We paid them in cigarettes and beer", claims Tom. It is worth noting that two years later, producer Peter Hoffman took them under his wing, encouraging them to change their act's name, enlisting songwriting help, and getting them a record contract. By '07 Tokio Hotel were playing to a crowd of a half million at a concert near the Eiffel Tower. "We were shocked," admits Bill. "It was a huge moment." Since then, their lives have been a haze of handlers and publicity trips and breathless fans.
Recently, the brothers turned 19. They could've gone anywhere in the world to mark the occasion, but instead they returned to Germany, celebrating it at an amusement park. "It was kind of our childhood dream to have a theme park just for [us]," says Bill. So they're not too cool to ride roller coasters? "I love it! I love it!" Even if it does mess up his hair.
Tom's Blog:Short Trip to Milan
Most of you probably know that Bill made it on the runway of the great Fashion Week in Milan. Actually, I was supposed to be the star of the show but sometimes Bill also needs to get some of the spotlight ;-) We got a little video ready for you guys so you can see yourself how things were in Milan.

NEWS:Perrine's case is solved
EnglishPerrine's case has been solved. Some days ago German tv was talking about some cases and mentioned that Perrine has now an restrictive order towards Bill and Tom which she can not be closer than 1,000 meters of the twins, if she does, she'll have to pay € 25,000.
Let's hope this the end of the story.
Español
Finalmente, el caso entre Tom y Perrine se ha resuelto. Hace unos días, en la televisión alemana ofrecieron un reportaje del abogado de Perrine en donde hablaba de algunos de sus casos, entre ellos el del guitarrista y la stalker. Pues él mismo informó que Perrine tiene una orden restrictiva de alejamiento hacia Bill y Tom la cual ella ha aceptado y con la que no puede estar más cerca de 1,000 metros de los gemelos, ya que si lo hace tendría que pagar una multa de 25,000 €. Esperemos que sea esto el fin de la historia.
