UPDATE: MTV Worldstage Malaysia 07.31.2010
Update:MTV Worldstage in Malaysia
some press conference photos and an interview at the bottom
---------------------------
-----------------------------------
Throughout the interview, Bill was the chatty one, Tom was the cheeky one, Gustav was the attentive one and well, Georg was the sweet one –he smiled a lot. We find out more about what Tokio Hotel have up their sleeve for tonight’s performance, Bill’s septum piercing and the much-missed Jumbie before the boys had to be whisked away for rehearsals.
What can the fans expect from your MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia 2010 appearance?
Tom: The main thing is that we will have the burning piano and something new for “World Behind My Wall.” We also have a great opening for “Noise” and all our intros.
Bill: What we did on this record is that we tried some new instruments, the guys are playing keyboards, and they are playing piano for the first time, because in general, Tom is only playing the guitar, but he’s also really talented when it comes to the piano, so we went with a new record to try new stuff on stage as well.
Do you guys still get nervous when you’re up on stage?
Bill: Yes, we do. But when you play a tour for like 3 months or something…with the large shows when it’s the same every night, it’s not that bad, you get used to it. We are always nervous when it’s just the one show, just the one possibility, and it’s always exciting. I think it’s a normal thing to be nervous.
Tokio Hotel has recenty released a ‘Humanoid City’ Live DVD and album. I understand that the stage setting was created by the team behind the blockbuster movie “The Fifth Element.” Tell us more about the creative process behind bringing this tour video to life.
Bill: You know when it comes to the tour, you always have so many ideas and things you want to do, and for us it was important to do something new. We really wanted to create a ‘Humanoid City,’ so we had a great stage designer, her name is Misty Buckley, she did a fantastic job and we worked really close together.
Tom: We all sat down and said we wanted a big opening, we want something movable, we want the set to flow on stage, and all the ideas kept coming.
Bill: So putting a show together like this means a lot of time, we started half a year before we got on the road, and we had some rehearsals in London for like a week. We then did the costumes together, it was Dean and Dan (Caten) from DSquared2, and they also did a fantastic job. It was really a process, so I think the most important thing is to get together and to talk about what you want to have. I really wanted to do something ‘Humanoid,’ something which is not from the planet, and that was the whole theme for the tour. Everything worked really well and we put on quite the show in Milan.
Speaking of the tour and also your album ‘Humanoid,’ there’s this whole science fiction aspect going on, so do you guys have any favorite science fiction movies, books etc?
Bill: I think I love most sci-fi movies in general.
Tom: Sci-fi movies are great, my favorite sci-fi movie is… do we have a favorite? I mean Fifth Element is great…
Georg: District 9.
(All agree)
Bill: 2012 was also a great movie.
Tom: It’s not really sci-fi but…
Bill: I like a lot of different things, I like everything with aliens so yeah. It was not planned to have the record like this, it comes just with the process and we were sitting in the studio thinking and talking about things like that and we came up with the idea of calling this album ‘Humanoid’ and to have all the sci-fi influences.
Bill, you’ve recently got yourself some new piercings-including a septum one that is slightly more unusual. Was it planned or something done on impulse?
Bill: No, it’s always really spontaneous. I was sitting in the car and I had this idea and I said ok, I wanna do it. The great thing about piercings is that you can pull it out any time so that’s really great.
But I’m really into piercings and tattoos and stuff like that so I already planned some new tattoos I wanna have. When you do this, it hurts so bad, and you say ok, I never want to do this again, but when everything is fine and you’re feeling good again then you go directly to the next piercer and it’s a cycle.
I’m kinda addicted to stuff like that.
So is there any part of your body that you will never pierce?
Bill: Yes, my “downstairs” area. (gestures to lower body)
(everyone chuckles)
What’s the most interesting thing that you guys have had to autograph so far?
Tom: We’ve had some good things – used underwear, cars…
Georg: Naked boobs…
Bill: Yep, things like that…
Tom: I prefer naked boobs (smiles widely)
Is Jumbie ever going to make an appearance again?
Bill: Ah!
(everyone laughs)
Tom: He does look really great on film.
Bill: We always have new toys on tour, and this time we have snake boards (skate boards with pivot points). It’s really hard to learn this but once you get it, it’s really fun, but maybe we’ll bring Jumbie on the next tour, or maybe to Asia. I think he definitely wants to see it.

RUMOR FLASH: Tom shaved his hair?

Tokio Hotel promises an extraordinary performance
Even though our conversation went on for less than 15 minutes, it was clear that these four young men from Germany who call themselves Tokio Hotel are very excited about their performance at the MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia 2010 at Surf Beach @ Sunway Lagoon this coming 31 July.
During our brief conversation, the group that consists of Gustav Schäfer, Tom and Bill Kaulitz and Georg Listing were repeatedly expressing their happiness that their second trip to Malaysia will definitely be different and much more special for their fans.
"It's going to be a large-scale performance and different from the previous one. Since we are still quite new to the international stage, we are so grateful to MTV World Stage for giving us the chance to perform at this event."
"What's more interesting is that MTV World Stage 2010 will be held in Malaysia and that indirectly gives us the opportunity to meet with the fans who appreciate our music," said the band's lead singer Bill Kaulitz.
Moving on to their performance on the night of the concert, Bill states that his band will surely put on a show that is prestigious enough for such a monumental event.
Set to deliver their popular hits such as Pain of Love, Human Connect To Human, World Behind My Wall, Noise and Automatic, this band, which was formed in 2005, is expected to come forth with an arrangement and musical composition that is promised to be bigger and fresher, as well as using their own crew and performance production besides a special gimmick on the night of the concert.
"What can we say? The performance that night will be extraordinary and will exceed expectations. Besides a set list that is bigger and more energetic, we will also collaborate with our own crew and stage production for our special performance gimmick."
"Maybe on that night, we will try to enthrall the audience with a fireworks display apart from songs that will definitely entertain. We can't reveal anything else - the fans just have to come and see for themselves the difference that we'll perform," said Bill, who was touched by the sheer response from fans during their maiden visit here last May.
In August 2009, MTV World Stage which was organised for the first time in Malaysia managed to pull in close to 15,000 fans at Sunway Lagoon to watch The All-American Rejects, Kasabian, Pixie Lott, Hoobastank, Boys Like Girls, Raygun and Estranged.
For this year, apart from Tokio Hotel, MTV World Stage 2010 is expected to be more earth-shattering with the presence of US pop sweetheart Katy Perry, Korean band Wonder Girls and local indie band Bunkface. MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia 2010 is happening this 31 July, starting at 6PM, at Surf Beach @ Sunway Lagoon.

RUMOR FLASH: Tom Kaulitz Twin Tattoo
Well we already previously heard on an interview back when they were in Asia last May that Tom has been thinking of considering gettting a tattoo.. sort of like a symbolic twin tattoo to represent their relationship. I am not against this idea, but i do hope that Tom could think about the deisgn very well cause the once he gets Inked its bound to be lifetime.. so i hope he gets a very cool one. im excited for this :)
this is what is rumored to be Toms choice : "Wir sind vereint"
----------------------
Sources told Toldz that Tom (Tokio Hotel band member) will be thinking about doing his first tattoo on the belly will begin moving to the back.
Tattoos tell a simple and symbolic phrase: Wir sind vereint. That translated means "We are united."
_____
Well, this tattoo is the same as the Bill will do. Called "Tattoo of twins"
The tattoo will be done in Wildstyle Tattoo Berlin, Anzengruberstrasse 9, Berlin 12 043
