Sequels to 'Twilight' already in the works!!!!!!

 

Ahead of next Friday's release of the eagerly anticipated vampire romance "Twilight," indie studio Summit Entertainment is moving potential future installments in the franchise into the development pipeline.

The company has acquired rights to the next three novels in Stephenie Meyer's blockbuster series, "New Moon," "Eclipse" and "Breaking Dawn."

It has hired "Twilight" scribe Melissa Rosenberg, a writer/producer on Showtime's "Dexter," to adapt the first two. "Breaking Dawn," has not attached a writer.

"Twilight," which revolves around the relationship between an average teenage girl, Bella, and a vampire, Edward, in a rainy Northwest town, has been generating huge buzz ahead of its November 21 bow.

In "New Moon," Edward leaves Bella, sending Bella into a depression and a friendship with another vampire. In the third book, "Eclipse," that relationship triangle evolves, while evil empires begin to pursue Bella. "Breaking Dawn" pushes the plot further with a marriage between Bella and Edward.

Tom not a fan of Miley Cyrus

http://oceanupped.wordpress.com/2008/10/05/tom-kaulitz-tokio-hotel-i-am-not-a-fan-of-what-miley-cyrus-does-or-what-she-looks-like/

Tokio Hotel interview excepts from Buzznet. Tom Kaulitz is not a fan of Miley Cyrus‘ face. Your goal was to break through in the United States. Do you have the feeling that you have attained it?

Tom: Frankly, none of us four expected that there’d be so many fans at our concerts. It has always been sold out and the public was as crazy over there as in Europe. I think, we have fulfilled our contract. The mission is accomplished in a way (laughter). Georg: We all feel to have managed to achieve something great. I don’t think that before us a German band has met such hype in the USA.

Yet, one can slow a bit down the enthusiasm of your American success: during your promo there, you have sold only 100,000 albums, while the goal was to reach 500,000..


Bill: You’re right, despite our efforts, ‘Scream’ has not really taken off in the U.S. charts. Frankly, I don’t know what the reason is. We have done our best to make our music known to as many people, but the US market is very difficult to access for foreign artists. However, without wanting to sing our own praises, selling 100,000 albums is still enormous for a German band. We are not disappointed by this result.


Tom: What we enjoyed the most was to receive an MTV Video Music Awards for Best New Artist. We didn’t expect that at all since we were in competition with Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry or Taylor Swift, who are far more popular than us over there. To receive this award was a real shock. To date, it may be the best reward we have received for our career. In addition, I must say that I really enjoyed seeing the confused puss of Miley Cyrus when the winners, in other words us, have been announced.. (laughter)

You don’t seem to have taken her to your heart..

Tom: On the one hand, I am not a fan of what she does, plus, she doesn’t have the physical criteria that I look for in a girl. So, everything is said. (laughter) Bill: Tom talks bullshit, as usual! He is an uptight fan of “Hannah Montana”, I’ve have already caught him watching some episodes secretly. (laughter) Tom: We will settle that tonight. Secretly..

Is Bill suffering an eating disorder?

 

Bill Kaulitz - The stress is consuming him


The teenie idol is skinnier than ever. Is the Tokio Hotel singer suffering and eating disorder?

Hanging pants and hollow cheeks: In recent photos Bill Kaulitz looks unhealthily skinny that one question comes to surface: Is he anorexic? The Tokio Hotel star denies such: “Don’t worry about my eating habits.” Apparently he shovels down mounts of fast food, noodle casseroles and milk rice. But his reassurance over such back fires. Because: “It’s typical for anorexics to deny their illness.” Explains Dr. Thomas Kurscheid, a nutritional physician. “Sufferers have a warped body perception – they believe they’re too fat.” However, the 19 year old claims that he only weighs 50 kilos - too little for someone with the height of 1.77 m.

His underweight can also be from nature [Bill: “I was always so skinny!”] or a reaction to the stressful life in the limelight, the results of energy taking performances and tours. However, the expert assumes it’s a psychological problem: “Bill’s life is controlled from managers. No wonder that he at least wants to keep the control over his own weight...”

The twins are 19! No longer boys!

The twins are 19! No longer boys!

  credit to AELLA/tha!      

Very soon, on September 1, we will be celebrating the 19th birthday of the Kaulitz twins. But for now, let’s take a look at all the events that have taken place recently in the life of Tokio Hotel.

Success and Achievements

Bill Kaulitz has everything necessary for a successful career: talent, a look, money, the love of the fans. But there is one thing missing for the total happiness of every young man – a good car! This month Bill finally got his driver’s license and immediately bought a luxurious, silver convertible from BMW, for almost 100 000 Euros.

Aside from that, the group is among the nominees for the MTV VMAs in the “Best New Artist” category. This, yet again, proves that the boys are successfully conquering the Unites States and are already quite popular in this country. You can vote for the guys on MTV’s official website (mtv.com). The Award show is very soon- on September 7.

This month, Tokio Hotel is also celebrating another important event: exactly three years ago, the August of 2005, the single “Durch Den Monsun” was released, which made Tokio Hotel known to the world. With that song started the band’s history. And with that song these boys changed the world of music forever.


Indecent Proposal

The twins are getting older, which means, that the scandals, that they are sometimes involved in, are getting bigger too. Not that long ago, a few girls declared that Bill spends the nights in different online chatrooms, using his big name and fame to get the girls to send him naked pictures. But we know that Bill would never dare to take advantage of the love of his fans, with such low behaviour. The police did an investigation and caught an 18-year-old Frenchman, who, for few weeks was posing on the internet as Bill Kaulitz and making the girls believe that he really is the “real” Bill. During the contact with the girls, the false-Bill was very friendly and caring, so it took awhile to find out about the fraud. But the Frenchman took too much advantage of Bill’s fans, and this brought about hard consequences. At first the girls were nervous to send the poser their naked pictures. They were suspicious, but still sent the photos. Finally, the law enforcements were able to trace the guy and found him in a small town in France. With him, they found many photographs of naked girls in erotic positions. The police were in shock, when they found out that some of the girls were only 11-years-old. Now the dude will have to pay a large fine. When we contacted Bill for a comment about the event, he assured us and all of his fans, that neither he nor anyone else from the group ever were and ever will be at these online chatrooms. They just don’t have the time.

Interview with Tom!



Was it difficult for you to recognize him without the hair and make-up? Well, it's him, our lovely Bill.

He delights us! His style is so personal; it's one of a kind. "When we were kids we used to go on holidays to the Spanish coast," the singer of Tokio Hotel reminded us. Will they please us with another visit? Spain has tons of beaches!

Tom and the girls: «I collect preys»

It's said that having a girl in each port is a natural thing for you...

That's true. I can't deny it. I'm a young boy and there are so many pretty girls out there, I couldn't commit with only one of them.

Try to remind and tell us how many girls you've been with.

Ok, around 25 girls!

That's a bit scary, isn't it? How old have you started?

At the age of 12. Since then I haven't had any trouble. I think the girls notice that I'm the one with more experience, so they can't get away from me. (Laughs)

What is your tactic, to keep them in your hands?

Honestly, I don't have any special trick. It depends a lot on the situation, the girl, the way I'm feeling...

What bugs you the most?

When they play naive and make me waste my time. I'm a hunter who collects his preys. I like to hunt them slowly.

And what should they have to be "hunted"?

There are few girls to whom I'd say no. If I do it, it's for lack of time. A day only has 24 hours!!!

Now tell us a place where you like to make love...

I really like to do it in the shower.

And the rarest place you've ever done it...

In a park. The truth is that it wasn't too good as I expected. Besides, there were too many bugs, and I hate it!!! So, I'd rather do it at home.

Your worst experience was...

When I was 14, I was totally making out with a girl and my mom got home. It was my second time, and she cut of the mood.

Is there something that bothers you?

Yeah, I don't like when they get cheesy. I think that in sex people should talk less and scream more!!!

Do you use to take fans with you to yout hotel room?

A few. (laughs) If she's pretty and if I like to be with her, I ask for her number and later I call her, to give mine or something like that...

And with all those one-night-stands, did u ever fall in love?

I haven't found anyone so far. The truth is that I don't believe in love. Well, I do on that love of one night!

So, doing something crazy for love is out of sight, right?

I never did anything silly for women. The longest relationship I've ever had lasted two years, but I wasn't in love at all...

Do you think you'll ever have something more serious?

I don't know. I don't say no to a serious relationship, but I don't want it for now.

Do you think you're different from your brother?

Yes. Bill, for example, has been with girls, but now he wants to keep himself for his true love. I prefer to keep trying until I find it!

Let's make it easier, how's your ideal girl?

I don't have a concrete type. And if I had it, I wouldn't tell you, or else I couldn't go out anymore.

Do you have any sex myth? I really like the Olsen twins, Angelina Jolie, Jessica Alba and the girls from the Playboy Mansion. I don't have a bad taste, do I?

Miley Cyrus To Face Off Against Tokio Hotel For Best New Artist At VMAs

  vs.  


Madonna, Danity Kane, Chris Brown get nods for Best Dancing in a Video.

By Chris Harris


Each year, one of the most coveted trophies handed out at the MTV Video Music Awards is the Moonman for Best New Artist. Guns N' Roses, Nirvana, Stone Temple Pilots, Eminem, Alicia Keys, Avril Lavigne and 50 Cent are among the award's previous winners, while Gym Class Heroes walked away with the honor last year.

But who will take the prize home in 2008, the awards' 25th anniversary? Will it be the world's richest and most famous teenage girl or a bunch of German rockers who can't spell Tokyo? Surprised Well, we won't know until September 7 at 9 p.m., when this year's big show is broadcast live from the legendary Paramount Pictures Studios in Hollywood. This year's awards will be hosted by British comedian and "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" co-star Russell Brand and is set to feature performances from nominees Lil Wayne and the Jonas Brothers.

Confused I hope this was a MTV joke..... angry

Twins are different and not only in looks

Translation by Papercut01

From second page:

“Los gemelos no solo…”
-- The twins are different not only in their looks, but in their ways with girls as well.

On Bill’s side:

“No soy..”
-- I’m not a one-night-stand kind of guy. I don’t feel like taking a stranger to my room.

“Lo maximo…”
-- The longest I’ve made love is three hours straight.

“El mejor…”
-- The best place to have sexual relations is, without a doubt, a hotel room.

“Ninguno de los Tokio…”
-- None of the Tokio boys would resign the preservative unless we had a serious and lasting relationship. (direct translation.. couldn’t put it in my own words)

“Soy adicto…”
-- I’m addicted to relationships that develop gradually. I fall in love slowly.

“Una vez…”
-- One time I was doing it, I went to the bathroom and when I returned, the girl had left thinking we were finished.


Tom’s side:

“Me lleve…”
-- I took a girl out to a field. We did it behind some bushes and I got bit in the ass.

“Mi primera…”
-- My first sexual experience was a disaster. I never want to relive that moment.

“Mis relaciones…”
-- My relationships don’t last more than two days. I only believe in one night stands.

“La chica…”
-- The girl of my dreams has to be fun and wear nice clothes. It’s important for us to be on the same level…

“Soy un cazador…”
-- I’m a ladies man. The girls who catch my attention are the ones that seem like they’re not interested in me.

“El major…”
-- The best place to have sex is in the shower and on the kitchen sink.

“No creo…”
-- I don’t believe in love because I hate the routine. I easily break it off with girls…


From third page:

“Tiene Bill y Tom una hermana”?
-- Do Bill and Tom have a sister? If so, is she younger or older? Does she look like them? Is she pretty? Of course she is. Well tell me the truth.

She is not pretty and nothing else because she doesn’t exist. The twins don’t have a sister, but if you’d like to get an idea of what she’d probably look like, then look at the picture we’ve created.

 

                 This article is abit weird..  I dont think we should believe everything the Magazines write about them. lol

'Tokio Hotel drops VSD Hamburg.

 
know it’s a though headline to read, but it’s true. Apparently Tobi was telling people at the Sayreville concert, so an anonymous fan has posted the information for us. VSD Hamburg were dropped as Tokio Hotel’s security and a new company was hired to do the job. What’s most startling is that, from what we know, it seems like Tokio Hotel made the decision themselves, not management. Look below the break to find out more.

Oookay, since Tobi was telling this fans in New Jersey, I guess I’m finally allowed to tell what I know too *hrhr*

Saki got fired. He’s not working for Tokio Hotel in any way anymore.

Tobi left VSD Hamburg, and now has a new contract with Tokio Hotel themselves, and works for them now as Head of Security, but is not related to VSD anymore (that’s also the reason he hasn’t worn the VSD shirt since a while, obviously)

The tour management Four Artists is gonna take over the lead of security. We don’t know yet how it’s gonna look like from now on.

"I guess it will either be local security at every gig from now on, or Tobi will create a whole new security team on his own (which I hope)."

"Four artists" will be the new security team

"Fake" Bill arrested

In France, an 18-year old guy has been arrested. He posed as Bill in online forums and got girls aged 11-17 to send him photos. Many of the girls complied and some even sent pornographic photos of themselves. The guy turned around and was posting those images all over the internet.

While this is not Tokio Hotel news specifically, I do hear from SO MANY PEOPLE every day who think that the band is online and talking to them. And it is not just the band. It's people who believe David is emailing them, or Natalie, or even Dunja.

Please be careful out there and PLEASE believe that the guy who says he is Bill? ISN'T. And he could be a really bad guy trying to hurt you.

One day of Bill Kaulitz’s (real) life

                                   

One day of Bill Kaulitz’s (real) life
13.46
Loud moans within the bus. He’s having a good time again with someone from groupies – well, yes, just wonderful! Although, in any case, it can’t be Tom – he moans much louder. Probably this is one of the bodyguards, in return they promise girls to let them in backstage.
And where are we? Bulgaria? France? Italy? Only one thing is clear – we are abroad where we, at least, can still collect full venues.
14.05
These moans are unbearable. (It’s Georg moaning… probably the bodyguard mixed smth up :)))) As well as my reflection in the mirror. And the last bottle of hair spray is over. Devil’s day!
14.23
Depression begins. Moreover Tom has just mocked at me because I have to give another stupid interview about love. About my dreamgirl. (If you found your dreamgirl, then you can say goodbye to the rest of your dreams)))). Moron.
And besides, why did he get a chic car as a gift and I didn’t!? (Because he’s a smart guy and you’re a pain in the neck )))) Maybe I should finally get my driver’s license too…
15.22
F***! F***! F***! The lock of hair was hooked with a thick silver chain and again I had to pull it out. And the nail polish on a little finger has already cracked. I’m so upset that it’s necessary to smoke a cigarette. (Terrible strokes of bad luck come one after another, but our Billchen doesn’t lose courage! True man! )))) But only furtively in a bus’ toilet, the fans should not know about it. Because I’m an example for them and all that.
In front of the bus little girls are screaming: “Biiiiiiiill! I want a child from you!” and “Show me your white sauce!” Hah, as if I am a cook! And don’t they sell mayonnaise abroad? (Actually they were screaming not about mayonnaise)))))
15.40
With crazy eyes our manager finally runs in. He mutters something like: “Superhit is written!”, “US market” and “World domination”. They made us sit in a van with tinted windows. Feels like someone is missing…
Аааh, Gregor, oops, Georg. He’s a band member too. (The bodyguard went to Gustav but Georg continues moaning)))
16.19
Well, finally something! A visagiste makes me human again! A TV show is planned for today’s program. Christ, and I still do not even know where we are.
18.15
The presenter asks us questions in the language unfamiliar to me. Tom doesn’t bother at all, without waiting for the issue, he simply tells about the 1425 groupies, with whom he had sex. (in May 2008))))
Scheiße, Gustav is not here yet. Probably someone left him in the van. (The bodyguard reached Gustav))) Christ, we’ll have to shoot it once again.
20.12
“Billy, it’s Stage-Time now!”
Oh, it seems that we play a concert today. Besides I need to finish a table tennis set with Tom. Thoughts about this clumsy fellow distract me again. The fans are singing our songs, I’m completely moved.
21.21
A large buffet was organized backstage. But there are only such exquisite things as shrimps, caviar etc. And I want Happy Meal! I have only to say that I wouldn’t refuse from rum and the bodyguard already runs to get it. (Probably Georg and Gustav went for rum)))) It’s so cool to be a superstar!
22.36
I was chosen as the second most annoying person in Germany, and because of that Tom keeps making fun of me now. What an idiot!
I was so upset that pulled out another lock of hair. However, I must put up a bold front and give the autographs to the fans. They scream “I love you!” so loudly that I already have a shooting in my ear. I hope this is not tinnitus. Gustav is already sick with it and now he became so rediculous. (Poor Gustav)))
23.52
Terribly tired, but our manager by all means wishes to go to a strip-club together with us. “Bravo” and “Bild” will be there too. I will have to put a banknote in girl’s panties, but still hesitate to do it. (He can’t even put in a banknote. What a nightmare!))) Tom, naturally, likes all that madly. (Of course! When the main competitor is dull)))
01.22
Only in the bus I remember: Scheiße! I forgot to buy a hairspray! Trying to understand where we actually were today. Maybe in France – all the time people in the strip-club politely called me “madam”.

Tom – girls-lover
Always dreadlocks
Tom, the guitarist from Tokio Hotel, says that there is only one person who can drive him out of his wits: this person is 10 min younger and his name starts with the letter “B”. While Bill combs his hair till XXXL size, Tom takes care of his dreadlocks. He says that he always ties them in tail, and in order to see his flowing hair you need to be with him in a shower: when they become wet, they straighten up and look like mythological hydra’s snakes. This comparison simply left without dreams thousands fans. The point is that Tom is a sex bomb of Tokio Hotel: he personally claims that he had sexual relations with many fans, and it’s rumored that he spent one night along with 25 girls from groupies.
Tom is 10 min older than Bill and 2 sm shorter, but they weigh the same. Their tastes often coincide.
Tom says that he had many different girls but with none of them he spent more then one day. He had 7 serious relationship but they were all based on lust.
Real sex
In addition to his incredible thirst for sex, he claims that he becomes ill of such frequency and sometimes has to invent excuses why he always wears sunglasses. It’s to observe what blouses and short skirts conceal. He also admits that he always achieves what he wants and he never has to choose a girl because they always always always choose him.
He’s got his lip pierced at the age of 14. He likes to watch action movies, go to parties and paint graffiti. He would never be able to dress like Bill, even if Angelina Jolie asked him to do that. He has 19 guitars and that’s a large number for a 19-year-old guy. One more thing: his most lustful desire begins with the fact that he enters the dark room along with Olsen sisters.

The truth about OP, future concerts and album…
- Bill, you had some problems with your vocal chords. How do you feel now?
Bill: Everything is ok, thank you. The operation went very successful, but the most difficult thing was my recovery period. I had to spend 10 days without talking, singing or laughing. I could not even listen to music. Then I spent 3 weeks in complete quiet because of my rehabilitation. After that we went to the US to release our English album and to play several concerts there. Now everything is ok. Everybody is ok.
- Besides the concert in Parc des Princess is there any other concerts in your schedule?
Bill: We will tour Europe in July. Italy, Spain, Scandinavian and Eastern countries. We should have been there even before summer, but most of the concerts had to be cancelled and you all know the reason. Most likely, that after the tour, we’ll return to the United States. And meantime we’ll be recording the album, which will be released at the end of the year.

"We are not puppets!"

translation made by Stern

For those who don’t know you again, how have you four met?
Tom: Bill and I, we started making music when we were 7. We have always prefer that to video games! We have devote it all our free time, the evenings, the weekends. Bill played the keyboard, because we didn’t have anyone else to be in charge of the drum and bass. I’ve met Gustav when we were at the Academy, we’ve become friends then.
Gustav: And then, one day, I attended one of their performances. When I saw Bill on stage playing the keyboard, I said to myself that we should really change that. (laughs.) We have therefore began to discuss it and I have propose them to play with them. It was at this time that we became a band.

What would you want to reply to the people that say that you are a marketing product?
Bill: Oh my God! To say such nonsense, they must be frustated people! Still, it’s the classic bullshit that we hear in the music business. Specially in Germany, because these last years, as in England in the 90’s, there are many castings to form a boys bands and a girls bands. There are even TV shows whose aim is to find THE next band. Suddenly, it’s very difficult for a real formation that didn’t pass by the reality-tv circuit to impose themselves and to make a break out. Nowadays it’s very difficult to convince people that we are a real band, that nobody told us to be friends with Gustav or Georg. In any case people don’t believe us. Consequently, we do our thing without worrying with these rumours. Music, it’s an emotion; if you’re just a puppet, how can you put your soul in what you do? For my part, I believe that I put my soul to it, so I get angry when people think that what I do is plastic. But at one point you have to put some distance between those rumours and you otherwise you are “eaten”.

What relation do you have with your fans?
Tom: If we can, we talk to them, sign autographs...it’s the least we can do, because where you go, they are there! Sometimes they wait for hours or they even spend the night there, on the street. Whether it’s cold, raining, snowing, they are there. And then, they offer us gifts that they made with their hearts and souls. So, give them a little of our time, it’s the least we can do to show them how what they do counts to our eyes. We’d like to measure up to their love.

What’s the most remarkable gift that a fan has offered you?
Bill: It’s a difficult question, because we receive tons and tons of gifts. We are very touched by the letters of our fans. Some are very long. There is one that has 14 Km! It’s almost a book of 1000 A4 sheets.
Georg: If not, we’ve received a car, a Mini Cooper equiped with our photos and names. But it’s really impossible to choose a particular gift, because they all mean something to us.

Do you take the time to go to forums or your MySpace?
Bill: You have to be careful because in the forums, there are many people that pretend to be us, that chat with our fans and foul them. If we are on the Internet, is always as a group and is announced officially. Apart from that, we spend many time on the blogs dedicated to us or in our MySpace, because their opinions matters a lot to us.

The girls are crazy for you, but, you, what’s your type of girl?
Tom: It’s a difficult question, because I don’t have a certain type of girl in mind. It must just be a good feeling from the start, a connection that starts the relation naturally. She can be blond, brunette, red-haired, it doesn’t matter. But with the life we have, we don’t have the time for a love relationship. At least, I mean a real love relationship. At the same time, that doesn’t interess me to be faithful, commit myself...I mainly want to enjoy myself. I was mad for a lot of girls. Too many girls. (laughs). I really think we can fall in love several times in a lifetime and that, luckily, several people are made for us.
Georg: As far as I’m concerned, I’d love to find a girl that looks like Angelina Jolie, the Olsen twins and Eva Langoria.
Gustav: So, we will fight for the same girl Georg. (laughs)
Bill: I love that the girl has a great look, nice nails and a beautiful skin. And then, especially, that they are positive and playful. I don’t like one night stands. I truly believe in true love, a love that you only find once in a lifetime...if you have the chance. Because I think that many people never find it, which is very sad... I’ve already met girls, I’ve already fall in love. I know what it is to have a flash for someone and the butterflies on your belly, but I still haven’t found love with a big L.

Bill you have a unique look. Did you always like to wear make up, do you do your nails?
Bill: I do that since a long time ago. Gustav and Georg didn’t even ever known me with a different look. I started to like to wear make up when I participated in a Halloween evening some years ago. I’ve disguise myself as a vampire. And then I kept that look. It’s part of my personality.

How many time in the morning do you spend to make you beautiful?
Bill: Not much. About forty minutes.

Do you have any ritual before going on stage?
Bill: It’s not really a ritual. Gustav likes to stay alone, concentrate himself, listen to music. As for Georg, Tom and I we like to meet together backstage before the show starts and stress the three.(laughs) We close ourselves in the green room for half an hour and nobody can came in. Even our manager! We imagine the worst things that can happen, we laugh about it and that relaxes us.

And when you are not on stage how do you spend your free time?
Georg: We play ping-pong and kicker!
Tom: And when we are not on tour, we like to sleep very late! Expect Gustav, who is an early bird. But Bill, Georg and I we like to eat, watch tv and sleep. And when we can really make a break, we like to go on vacations.

And what’s your favourite destination?
Tom: All I can tell you is that we love the little isolated islands very, very, very far from here.(laughs)

By force of circumstance, you spend many time together. Do you keep friendships outside the band?
Tom: Yes, of course! Because it’s important for us to be able to talk about other things besides Tokio Hotel. But because we share the same friends, we are always the four. And then, we go on vacations together.(laughs) Thus, yes, Tokio Hotel, is our most beautiful friendship story.

And you never fight?
Tom: Oh, we’d want to sometimes. Especially when Georg decides to remove his shoes. (laughs) But our friendship is stronger than the disputes!

Even if you are loved by your fans, is there always something about yourselves that you don’t like?
Bill: (laughs) We didn’t change, we are the same. We have the same flaws than before. And we have the same relation with each other than before we’ve known success. So, even if it’s crazy to be 18 years old and see so many girls mad about you, there are always things I don’t like about myself. I don’t walk in the streets telling myself that I’m the greatest guy in the world. Tom does, always.(laughs)
Tom: There’s always something that we don’t like about ourselves. But it’s normal; we are 18, we seek. And for our age, we have a strong confidance in ourselves. When I say I’m the best, I don’t take the lead.

What souvenirs do you keep from your childhood? How you describe yourselves at that time?
Bill:
We always had confidence in ourselves and in our future. We had a lot of character. We have started very early making music, because we have since young known what was good for us. That wasn’t always easy to live. At school, we didn’t want to fit in a mold, that’s what created clashes between us and the teachers and the other students. But apart from the fact of hating highschool, we had truly great fun.
Tom: Me, I’m always crazy. I’ve always in me the child I was. Fourtunely, he isn’t in the people.(laughs) He guides me everyday.
Bill: But contrary to what our fans may think, we are far from being perfect. We recognize the success that we have, but we don’t want to be an example to people!
