9 Questions to Bill

Translation

What is life like a teen-idol?

We talk about that a lot.

When we are in the car on long drives, we realize where we are at and that is……a funny feeling.

What is the secret to your succes?

I think you really can not explain it.

I would not know what the recipe is, when people would ask how to manage that.

But it really is just a bunch of luck, of course, hard work, which is clear as well, and than maybe that we are concentrated on this, that there is nothing else beside this.

Are you a controlfreak?

It is very hard for me to give things out of my hands.

And I can not let go easily. that means, I am actually busy all day with controlling everything.

I am the kind of person that will turn around 10 times to see if the door is really closed.

Is there a life after Tokio Hotel?

I can imagine a time in which we will do less.

And work less and maybe sometime that we won’t make a new album for 2 or 3 years and not be on the road.

That we are all doing our own thing. But that Tokio Hotel does not exsist anymore, that is hard to imagine.

Would you like to act?

Yeah, I can imagine that, of course.

It is just a question of the entire team of the movie, that the script and the role are good, than I can imagine to try that out. Until now the right movie was not there yet.

Do you get many offers..

Yeah, everytime I get new ones.

But most of the times there are big roles and I do not trust myself enough to do that.

I would like to try a small movie part first without being a big issue/thing.

What would you like to play?

I would like to play a vampire or a junkie. I can imagine that..

Are you a “fake” person? (fake as in made up, not real)

The Bill wearing make up , the Bill that is sitting here in front of the camera is closer to me then the Bill that gets up in the morning.

It is not something I do for other people.

I used to go to school like this. I could not be a fake person and pretend for everyone, that would be to hard on me because it would be too much.

Does time in showbizz passes fast or slow?

Both!

Time goes pretty fast and you think, crazy, another year is over, so many things happened.

And at the same time it appears to go really slow.

Sometimes I think, crazy, the day is over already and the next moment I think, oh god, I have been doing this that long already!
