'''Tokio Hotel''' is a rock band from Magdeburg, Germany. They are made up of identical twins Bill (vocalist) and Tom (guitarist) Kaulitz, drummer Gustav Schäfer and bassist Georg Listing. Although first formed in 2001 under the name Devilish, they received international mainstream success in 2007 after the release of their second German album ''Zimmer 483'' and their first English album ''Scream''.

* [[Anime Hair]]: Bill Kaulitz's hair style - especially during the early success of the band - is definitely this.
* [[Bishonen]]: The Kaulitz twins.
Line 22 ⟶ 23:
* [[Hotter and Sexier]]: When the band first reached success, Bill's use of makeup and his general stlye was meant to look more punk-rock than anything. However, as he grew up, he effectively turned into a sexy bishonen and is now widely recognized for his sex appeal. At one point he was called "the most beautiful face since Elizabeth Taylor" and recently won the "Sexiest Vegetarian" award.
* [[Humongous Mecha]]: Their "Automatic/Automatisch" music video.
* [[Intercourse
** "Human Connect to Human" and "Down on You"
* [[Jerkass]]: Tom Kaulitz borders on this during interviews.
Line 30 ⟶ 31:
* [[Eerie Pale-Skinned Brunette]]: Bill.
* [[Parental Abandonment]]: The twins' dad.
* [[Pretty Fly for
* [[Raging Stiffie]]: Tom Kaulitz illegally took Viagra in Taiwan and apparently had a boner for three days.
* [[Serious Business]]: Bill Kaulitz is so beloved that he is ''immortalized in wax.''
* [[Sibling Seniority Squabble]]: An interview with the band included this exchange:
{{quote|'''Interviewer:''' Now I notice in the [CD] liner notes, I think Tom, you say "my younger brother"?
'''Tom Kaulitz:''' Yeah, I'm 10 minutes older!
'''Bill Kaulitz:''' Yeah, he's so proud of it! So, please. 10 minutes? ''Oh wow''. }}
* [[Signature Song]]: "Schrei" / "Scream" and/or "Durch Den Monsun" / "Monsoon".
* [[Smoking Is Cool]]
* [[Stalker
* [[Take That]]: At the Golden Kamera awards, Bill, instead of the usual acceptance speech, proceeded to give a sarcastic thank you to everyone who called him gay, anorexic, etc, and was basically a big "fuck you" to all the ridiculous rumors they had been barraged with.
* [[The Rival]]: [[Cinema Bizarre]] and Killerpilze are fellow German bands consisting of bishonen, and both said some nasty things about the band in the past.
