Tokio Hotel: old men?
Tokio Hotel are currently on the road with their european tour "Welcome to Humanoid City" with their 3rd Album. Here the Band of four is getting swarmed and pursued daily by Fans. Georg Listing is the only one of the Band members who isn't single anymore. In an interview with the german press agency dpa the four musicians talk about getting married, privacy and the title "Teenie":

All Band members are meanwhile in their early 20s, don't you want to get rid of the title "Teen-Band"?
Bill Kaulitz: "Actually want it back. Because now we're getting into an age, where it's rather flattering to be called a "Teenie". We don't have any problem with this, it's not insulting."

How will Tokio Hotel sound in ten years?
Tom Kaulitz: "You'll see it then. We're going into the studio and do what we want to do. While writing the songs for the new Album, you see in which direction it'll go. In ten years the process is gonna be pretty similar to now."

Will the first band members be married by then?
Bill Kaulitz: "I don't know if somebody wants to get married, Georg..."
Georg Listing: "In ten years? I can't estimate that."
Tom Kaulitz: "To be honest: Yes, in ten years I'm certain that one of us will be married."

The fans are following your every move. When does it start to get annoying?
Tom Kaulitz: "When we're on tour it's rather wicked that the people are following you around. Also when you visit other countries and you get welcomed by as many fans as possible - that's definitely great. It gets annoying when you're trying to be private. But this doesn't happen so often, maybe on 40 days a year."

Would you want to exchange one part of your success, against more privacy?
Bill Kaulitz: "Of course, when it would be possible I would do it immediately. But when you want to be successfull and lead such a life like we do know, you have to sacrifice something."

After graduation, have you thought of getting a classical education like a apprenticeship or study?
Bill Kaulitz: "No, that's never been a topic for us. Graduating was also completely voluntarily. We really only did this for us, because Tom and I are such typical perfectionists when it comes to this. We at least wanted the diploma."

Bill, you were a Model at the Fashion Week in Milan. Will the Fans now see you more often on the runway?
Bill Kaulitz: "I could imagine doing that more often, and also to design my own collection, because it's something that makes me happy."
