Bill and Tom photoshoot for Audi
Bill and Tom had a photoshoot for Audi with their very own customised 2011 Audi A1′s!
Totally can’t wait to see what these photos are used for! They look AMAZING!
Also, note the blonde hilights in Bill’s hair? Hot! (Also, the paint job on Tom’s Audi? The matte finish silver? IN LOVE WITH.)
One Quarter of Tokio Hotel parties up in LA
Bill is currently in LA by himself. That’s right, not even Tom is with him right now (Tom’s in Hamburg just by the way). Bill’s made an appearance at DJ AM Celebration party at a prestigious LA nightclub, and was snapped by paparazzi.
Here’s the video of Bill leaving. NOTE:- Yeah, the paparazzi douchebag said he was a nobody, and tells him to go home. But hey, he obviously knew enough about him to know he wasn’t from America
And boy is still FIERCE!
Bill and Tom to front Designers Against AIDS campaign again!
It was confirmed today that Bill and Tom will be involved in the Designers Against AIDS campaign again next year! This is super exciting, because look at the awesome T-Shirt we all got out of it last time!
Want to know what DAA is all about? This is their mission statement from their website
AIDS awareness project Designers Against AIDS -born in Belgium, but active all over the world- wants to reach young people by using their favorite celebrities from the worlds of music, fashion, sports and art to raise their interest and curiosity, making them visit the website www.designersagainstaids.com, click on the links to local AIDS organisations and learn more about the disease.
The main objective of Designers against AIDS is to raise awareness and to get the subject of HIV/AIDS back into the media all over the world, as lately it has become a forgotten disease, especially in the western world. Our messages are: ‘Prevention is the only cure for HIV/AIDS‘ (protect yourself and your partner) and ‘Know your status’ (get tested). Furthermore we fight for the acceptance of and equal rights for seropositive people.
Make sure you check out the Designers Against AIDS website at http://www.designersagainstaids.com and keep an eye out on THNZ, because we’ll let you know how you can participate in all the activities DAA is organising.

Tom and his HUGE Viagra Drama
You’ve no doubt heard the stories. Tom was sold Viagra at a market in Taiwan, not knowing what it was, yaddah yaddah yaddah, he took too many, got quite sick; yet has made a full recovery and it’s turned in to a huge joke accross the fandom.
This story has attracted the attention of all the world-wide media, and the NZ media is no exception! The story has made New Zealand’s biggest news media site, Stuff. This is what they had to say on the matter:

“Tokio Hotel guitarist Tom Kaulitz told a German newspaper he fell ill after taking too many Viagra tablets and could not see straight for days.
Kaulitz, 20, told Bild newspaper that someone offered him a Viagra tablet during a concert tour of Asia.
After first turning down the offer, Kaulitz said he decided to try one. He said a little later he took a second one and fell ill.
“I first asked the seller ‘Do I look like someone who needs help with that?’” said Kaulitz, whose brother Bill is the group’s lead singer.
“He said ‘no’ – but that I should nevertheless try it out. I popped one in.”
Kaulitz, a member of the German rock band that has sold millions of albums around the world, said he took a few more tablets used to treat impotence when he got back to his hotel.
“I popped a few more pills, probably too many,” he said.
“The next morning my head was pounding and everything in front of my eyes was blurry. It wasn’t fun anymore. It was pretty bad.”
Kaulitz said it took two days for the effects to wear off.
“Unfortunately there were situations where it just wasn’t appropriate,” Kaulitz said. ”
