Willkommen! This is the Official Tokio Hotel UK Street Team and Fanclub website, bringing you all the latest news! Feel free to browse the website, and check out the THUKST section to see what we've done in the past! Please also join our forum (link above) to meet other fans and support fan actions to get Tokio Hotel back to the UK!
The video to the right is a message to THUKST and all its members, from the boys on their Humanoid City tour 2010! Press play to hear what they had to say!
Bill posted a new picture of Tom on the app with beautiful, long black dreadlocks! We can’t post app content here, but we’ll post a picture as soon as we can!
The fandom is buzzing with excitement after Tom posted on the app that he got dreadlocks again yesterday!
Are the dreads really back or is this another one of Bill and Tom’s jokes?! We’ll let you know as soon as we do!
Who hopes that Tom really does have dreads again? Would you guys like to see them back, or do you prefer the cornrows? Maybe you’d like to see a different style all together? Leave a comment and let us know!
Bill has replied to a fan on the BTK app who asked; “@Bill What is the special meaning of your new tattoo???? You can tell us? I think it´s amazing and I´m very curious ”
Bill replied; “Well my tattoo has a lot of different meanings. It stands for life and death, power and strength, beauty and perishabilty, love and bond, equality and distinctions… I think it just looks really cool ”
We can’t show a picture of the actual tattoo here as the app content can’t be posted elsewhere, but one fan has painted a very good replica of it on her Bill doll! The main difference is that the twin tattoo (his birth time) which is tattooed on Bill’s fingers is missing. But other than that, it’s a good enough likeness to show you how it looks!
For all of you who are unable to get the BTK app, there is some very good news for you today! The BTK Twins website will be launched soon and you can already view a few of the pictures that have been posted on the app!
“We will be launching our official BTK TWINS website soon. In the meantime, here is a sneak peek at the exclusive content on the BTK app.”
The latest app photos have been causing quite a difference of opinion! Bill posted four pictures of his new tattoo – a full glove of a skeletal hand in black and white, with a flower and a bird on either side, in pale colour.
The twins posted lots of pictures on their app this week including a picture of Tom in their studio, a vintage garage and a pair of Bill’s heeled shoes in a locker! He answered fans saying they weren’t hard to walk in at all and that he stands more than 2m tall when wearing them! But everyone’s favourite pictures this week were two of the twins dogs, one of their sleeping male daschund when he was a pup, and one of Tom’s dog, with his ears spread out! This is what the twins said about them …
Bill later told a fan that Tom’s dog always sleeps in his bed!
Tom also suggested to a fan who mentioned THTV that it might make a comeback saying “Cool glad you like TH TV! It’ll have a comeback…”
Those of you who have the app will probably already know that there has been quite a lot going on this week regarding copyright issues and reposting content outside of the app. For those of you who don’t know, the BTK admin posted a message requesting that nobody reposts app content anywhere else on the internet, and went as far as to say that anyone who does will be subject to a life ban from the app.
We’ve refrained from posting app content as we did have concerns that copyright might become an issue. As that has now happened, I’m afraid we won’t be able to share any of the pictures that Bill and Tom post to their app. What we will do though, is make regular text updates and let you know what’s been happening on the app as best we can, without breaking their rules.
Bill and Tom certainly seem to be having a lot of fun recently! Tom has been to two Supercross events, and said that he really loves it! Bill told fans that he accompanied Tom the second time and that he also thought it was “really cool.” They also went to see the show ‘OVO’ at the Cirque Du Soleil, which Tom said was amazing. And let’s not forget the picture of Bill holding an enormous pink gorilla that he won. Bill said their dogs immediately killed it when they got home, ha ha!
The BTK App has finally been made available in Apple stores so all the aliens with Apple devices can join the fun of the twins’ personal messenger. It has been released in some countries so far and more and more are following. Japan, New Zealand, Germany, Italy and Sweden are some of the places where the app is already available so make sure to keep checking your country’s respective Apple Store.
Please make sure to leave a rating and a review on the Apple Store site after you got the app.^^
There has also been an “Alien Chat Room” section added for aliens from around the world to chat to each other. This was done so fans can still talk to each other without “spamming” the guys’ posts because with the amount of fans joining in the fun it’s become harder for the twins to find questions/comments relating to their posts.
Have fun with the app and let us know what you think!
UPDATE # 2: The app was (partly still is) running a bit slow earlier today. An admin message was posted explaining that it was due to the amazing demand from fans who managed to crash the server.^^ Don’t worry if you’re experiencing problems at the moment. It’s getting fixed, so please just be patient. There will also be an update for the Android version of the app tomorrow or the day after.
Russian Muz TV reported about the twin tattoo Bill and Tom got a little while ago. Each of them had the other’s birth time tattooed. The footage was taken from the BTK Twins app which you can get from the Android Market.
Thanks to the girls from THNews.ru for the recording and subtitles.
German Yahoo discovered one of the videos Bill and Tom recorded for their BTK Twins app and posted it to their Lifestyle section with a rather lovely text. Though they didn’t realise the video is part of the mobile phone app, they picked up on the fan favourite “weally, weally”. Unfortuntely most of the comments are as unpleasant as we’re used to from the general German public but that’s nothing new and Yahoo’s kind words make up for it.^^
Translation:
Cute Christmas greetings from Tokio Hotel Bill and Tom Kaulitz are running “weally, weally“ late with getting their gifts. So the two of them still have to make it through the entire Christmas monsoon to be home and dry with their presents. Despite all of this consumption stress they still had enough time to greet their fans in a Youtube-video and to ask them what presents they’d be giving. Definitely pay attention to Bill’s cute pronunciation!
