"We felt like aliens"'Tokio Hotel about the exclusion in the school years.
They were bullied in school - now they are superstars. Figurehead for the German pop band "Tokio Hotel" tells of exclusion.
- Sometimes it was really tough, says Bill Kaulitz, 20.
The german popbands fanbase is dedicated. Very dedicated. When Tokio Hotel canceled their consert in Sweden last year because of lead singer Bill Kaulitz had surgical removal of a cyst on vocal cords organized fans a celebration feast. But the mood among fans is not always good. On one of the Swedish Tokio Hotel-sites, there has been bullying.
- Be nice to each other, says vocalist Bill Kaulitz.
The same stile then
Leading figures and twin brothers Bill and Tom Kaulitz, 20, has been the experience of bullying. When they went to school they got to experience exclusion.
- Me and Tom looked very different. We had the same style then as today with our hair and so. We did not look like everyone else and sometimes it was really tough at school. But I think it is a part of life, sometimes it's just so, says Bill Kaulitz.
Few close friends
The singer says that he and his twinbrother always socialized with each other and that they had few close friends. Dodgy comments and the sense of being different in their teens have contributed to the recent album "Humanoid."
- People looked at us as if we were aliens and that was how we felt, says Bill Kaulitz. The brothers believe that all people at some time may experience how it feels to be outside and that it is part of growing up.
Bad with Internet
I think it is common that people say dodgy things to each other online. It is a bad thing with the Internet, says Tom Kaulitz."
