Even though things around the band are quiet-ish, they still get featured in magazines around the world.^^ Here are two recent scans from Chinese magazines thanks to Theresa from THCN.
YOHO! #4/2012 and Motto #10/2012
UPDATE: TOM DOES HAVE DREADLOCKS AGAIN!
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!
On 7th September 2009 illustrator Hennie Blaauw posted on his blog concept art for Tokio Hotel’s (then new) video “Automatic” and wrote:
I had the opportunity to create concept art for the new Tokio Hotel music video. I worked with Director Craig Wessels from Wicked Pixels and this was the result. The awesome animation team at Wicked brought them to life…
The illustrations look pretty cool, don’t you think?
Tokio Hotel finished on the # 5 spot of NME’s “Ultimate fanbase” rating thanks to everybody who supported the band by rating them 10 out of 10. Thank you! 
All at THUKST & FC would like to wish you a Frohes Osterfest! Happy Easter! We hope you’re enjoying your chocolate eggs and whatever else you got. Have a lovely few days off even though the weather might not be too great.
We dug up an old Jost picture posing with bunnies and his boyband mates back in 1997… just for the lolz. XD
Earlier this morning (at 5am UK time) @cherrytreerec played a snippet of Bill’s collaboration song with Far East Movement, “If I die tomorrow”.
What do you think?
Bill also asked on the BTK App to see what the fans were thinking about it: “Cherrytree Radio just played a first sneek peak of “If I die tomorrow” the song I recorded with Far East Movement. How did you guys like it?”
He replied to one comment saying: “Wow…thank you! I´m so happy you and all the other Aliens like it! Thank you so much 
”
Pro7 broadcasted the episode of Germany’s Next Top Model featuring Bill on 5th April 2012. It was fantastic seeing him on TV again and the stage diving photo shoot was quite some fun, don’t you think?
Once again the thanks for the lovely subtitled video goes to TH_New.ru /@thnews_ru (and most of the original video was recorded thanks to ~Nik~ on the German FC forum).

Transcript & translation *click “read more” for all of it*
Heidi: Heute werden unsere Mädchen so wie ich auf Händen getragen.
Today our girls will get carried away by hands just like me.
*Kasia rocking out to “Schrei”*
Kasia: Scheiße, meine Frisur.
Sh*t, my hair.
Other girls: Zugabe!
Encore!
*Kasia singing “Durch den Monsun”*
Heidi: *talking to her model candidates* Heute müsst ihr euch wirklich anstrengen. Heute möchte ich Action haben! Und deswegen habe ich jemanden angerufen, der euch vielleicht ’n bisschen zur Seite stehen wird. Und diese Person ist ein riesengroßer Rockstar. Diese Person ist ein Weltstar. *turning to side* Komm schon raus!
Today you really have to make an effort. Today I want to get some action! And that’s why I called someone who can maybe stand by you and assist you a little bit. And this person is a huge rock star. This person is a world star. *turning to side* Come on, get out already!
*Bill getting up on stage*
Heidi: Hey.
Bill: *hugging Heidi* Hi.
Heidi: Bill Kaulitz everybody!
Kasia: Ich sing da irgendwas von Tokio Hotel und dann geh’ ich raus und von sechs Milliarden Menschen auf dieser Erde kommt natürlich ausgerechnet Bill. Kaulitz.
I was just singing something by Tokio Hotel and then I get out and of course it just has to be him of all the six billion people on this planet. Bill. Kaulitz.
“Big congrats to Tokio Hotel, Bill Kaulitz and crew!” Far East’s Kev Nish said. “If you die tomorrow, at least you won today.”
Far East Movement congratulated Tokio Hotel to their Musical March Madness victory. The article on MTV’s website also features a video but it’s blocked for some countries including the UK.
However, the article is rather cool and they also talked about their collaboration with Bill on their song “If I die tomorrow” which makes us even more excited about finally getting to hear it:
“When we first signed to Cherrytree [Records], we went on the website and see who’s on the roster … how do you pick what label to go to, you know?” he said. “And we saw Tokio Hotel, and we were like ‘Yo, this band is wild.’ We were on a bus watching them on the MTV Europe Awards, winning, and we were like, ‘We need to do a song with those dudes.’
“So we got in with Bill Kaulitz and we just wanted to do a song about losing yourself, about possibly losing your mind, because you might die the next day,” he continued. “It’s called ‘If I Die Tomorrow,’ and it’s Bill Kaulitz and his incredible tone in our dirty bass world … and that’s kind of where dirty bass is going: unexpected collaborations.”
Far East Movement’s album “Dirty Bass” will be released on 22nd May!
It’s been a tough tournament and especially the last two rounds against Evanescence and Green Day were anything but easy to win but you did it, Aliens! All the cramps in your voting fingers and sleepless nights have paid off! The voting for the final ended 5am UK and at 5pm UK time MTV finally announced the winner: Tokio Hotel! Within minutes #TokioHotelWonMMM2012 was the # 1 world-wide trending topic on Twitter as we were all so proud and happy to have finally won March Madness.
In their announcement article MTV also promised:
“Now that the title is theirs, check back tomorrow for an exclusive message from Tokio Hotel, thanking their fans for carrying them to victory!”
So there are quite a few things to look forward to tomorrow (the message and Bill’s appearance on Germany’s Next Top Model will be braodcasted tomorrow as well).
Not only us fans were thrilled about winning but Bill and Tom as well and they recorded a Thank You message for the BTK App even though we’re getting a message via MTV on Thursday! How cute of them.^^ They thanked their fans for the support but also for their patience while waiting for the new album.
Here’s also another article about TH’s victory that was posted on the MTV Buzzworthy blog: “I’m not going to lie, pretty much everyone over here in News was shocked, though given the ferocity of TH’s fanbase, we probably shouldn’t have been.”
Being up against Green Day reminded us of 2005 when Bill wore their shirts quite a few times.^^
Everyone at THUKST wishes Georg a very Happy Birthday! We hope whatever he’s doing to celebrate, he has a fantastic day!
Tokio Hotel posted a birthday cake pic on their Facebook and it looks very yummy. We wouldn’t mind a piece. XD
And many thanks to UK fan Kate for sharing her cute birthday drawing of Georg with us! We’re sure he’d love the hair.
Fans were so eager to congratulate Georg that there was not only one but two worldwide Trending Topics on Twitter in less than 15 minutes after midnight in Germany (which was 11.15pm in the UK). What a brilliant start and maybe we’ll see another TT in his honour today. And don’t forget to keep voting for TH in MTV’s March Madness HERE. Last year we lost the semi-final on Georg’s birthday.
