Tokio Hotel In Latin America - Article
The german band Tokio Hotel started on 24th November their tour in Latin America, ann expected concert in Brasil. But also they visited Peru, Chile and Mexico. Yes ! We have them that much close ! In this article we explain you tons of things that happened with the band that is being a hit in everything !
BRASIL
There were rumours that said that there wasn’t so much assistance at Brasil concert : only 5.000 fans. The fact is that the number of persons that can be in that venue is of that number. So even a pin couldn’t enter there !
The band was surprised for the answer of the brasilian fans, that sang in almost perfect german the songs that the band played. Bill, surprised said : That’s incredible. Is really incredible, we haven’t expected that. Thank you !
Tons of girls cried during the whole concert (literally) ’cause of the emotion.
The concert finished with “Forever Now” and was about 1hour ad a half.
PERU
Screams, hysteria and fainting. These are the words that were repeat in the media from Peru to resume the concert of Tokio Hotel, at the Jockey Club in Lima.
More than 8.500 fans were there, in most, girls.
The aesthetic was so futuristic.
There were so much faintings. The girls, so exited, were fainting and the security staff have to catch like 100 of fans.
Special effects were highlighted at the show, fireworks and fireballs during the concert. Bill changes his outfit many times.
The Tokiomanía was installed near the Jorge Chavez airport, despite the long hours of waiting for the guys, they did not get to see close to the German stars ’cause the staff set a strong security plan that moved quickly the group after they landed around 11 pm.
Anyway, the official fan club of Peru (more than 10.000 registered) wanted to make them a gift. What was it ? Four chullos, a pair of charango, a Peruvian flute and a drawer.
CHILE
9.000 people packed the Movistar Arena O’Higgins Park, where Tokio Hotel gave their concert in Chile.
Most of the audience was adolescents over 15 years.
Before the show, the German quartet, made time for social activities, donating a library and music room to a complex of Chilean education.
MEXICO
Although the idea was to start in Monterrey (northern Mexico), Tokio Hotel canceled the concert due to insecurity in the city, generated by the struggle between two drug cartels that has killed hundreds this year.
“Due to security concerns, will not be possible to proceed with our show in Monterrey. We are deeply saddened by this and wish for all this security situation is improved as soon as possible, “said the German band on their website.
The group led by Bill Kaulitz is not the first to take this decision on Monterrey: a few months ago, the American trio Jonas Brothers took the same path.
It was a shame because the kids would be presented in one place (Arena Monterrey) with capacity for 17,600 people. And according to Mexican press reports, the tickets were sold for the most part !
The concert was finally in Mexico City at the Palacio de los Deportes. The euphoria of the fans made the band stop playing for about 20 minutes because people were crushing each other, and there were more than two dozen girls swooning.
That was when the quartet played the theme “World behind my wall. ” Security personnel had to throw water to the boys who were near the floorboard.
“Mexico city !, hello, yesterday we went to the pyramids and it was amazing, our guide told us he felt that this would be the best show in our history, ” Bill Kaulitz, which caused mass hysteria.
One day before the concert, hundreds of fans camped outside Tokio Hotel Palacio de los Deportes, in order to have a good place in the show.

The Fame - 17
Tom
My arm was totally covered with blood, and the pain was unbelievable. Tears were falling from my eyes like a flood. The crazy girl had stabbed me in the arm with a knife and she was still running by my side and i could see how badly she wanted to hurt me. It wasn't hard to figure out that they wanted to hurt me and Katy, because they wanted Bill to suffer. Their eyes were insane. They just screamed out how much they hated Katy and how easy they could kill her and hurt me. They wouldn't give a damn about it if they only got what they wanted, which was Bill. I turned around too find out were Bill was, but suddenly i could feel someone pushing me into the white limo. The security guards tried to pull away the stalkers and they told me to lock the door and be calm. They closed it and i locked it. A few seconds later, Bill and Katy came into the car too. We locked the door and than all the secutiry guards jumped in and tried to drive away. The stalkers knocked on the windows and pulled the doors. I wanted to put my hands over my ears, but i couldn't do it. I could hear people screaming outside the limo but suddenly everything was quiet. The stalkers were gone.
Bill
We sat in the car, but i didn't feel safe. I was terrified and Katy was sitting in my knee, shaking and crying. I tried to be calm but it was impossible. I couldn't console her. I looked at Tom. He looked so weird and he was very, very pale. I had never seen him like that before. His lips were white and he made really weird noises. I realized that he was crying and i got terrified again. He never cried. And he hold his arm close to his chest, like he was trying to protect it. And than i saw it. His shirt were red and so was his arm. It was blood. I freaked out and started to scream.
- Tom! What happened to your arm? He looked at me, crying so much.
- One of the stalkers. She stabbed my arm with a knife. It hurts so much.
- Oh dear Tom, Katy said. She looked really worried. Your arm! We need to fix that.
One of the secutiry guards pulled of his shirt and started to fold it around his arm. Tom was shaking in his entire body and i stroked his back. Katy hugged him and he started to cry on her shoulder. He needed it and i hugged him too. We had a big grouphug and for the first time, for a very, very, long period i felt kind of safe.
Katy
I was laying in Bill's arms, really exhausted. But i couldn't sleep. Everytime i closed my eyes i could see the stalkers infront of me. After the wild ride into the limo they scared me more than anything. It was impossible for me to sleep. Bill tried to stroke my back and scratch my arms too make me fall asleep but i couldn't. Neither could he. We were in our room, in our huge bed and just looked at each other. Suddenly, we could hear someone open our door. It was Tom. He looked at us. He had a bandage around his arm and he looked so painful. I felt so bad for him. He smiled carefully and said;
- I'm so sorry guys, but can i sleep here with you tonight? I'm so scared and i can't sleep. We said yes and he crawled down under the blanket. I slept in the middle and i had Bill on my right side and Tom on my left. I could feel that Tom was really sweaty. He breathed out.
- It feels much better now...
Two minutes later he was asleep. So was Bill. They probably felt good sleeping together. And i had a harder time thinking about the stalkers when they both were here. So two mintues later, i was asleep too.

The Fame - 16
Bill
I totally freaked out. The stalkers were out there to hurt us. I pulled Katy and Tom close to me. I could feel their bodies shaking, just like mine. At least i wasn't the only one that was scared. What was happening? Katy looked at the nurse infront of us and said;
- What are we going to do now? Are we going to stay here? How are we going to get out?
- I don't know. The nurse looked down on the ground. Just wait here for a few minutes, i'm gonna go and call some people. I'm gonna do my best to get you out from here.
I could feel butterflies in my stomach. Crazy butterflies. What would happen too us if we walked outside the door? Would they attack Katy? They probably would. And what would happen with Tom? Would they hurt him too? It was hard to feel anything else than panic.
Me (Katy)
The nurse told us to sit down. We did but it didn't get any better. I could hear the stalkers scream into the hospital. I serioulsy just wanted to beat those crazy girls up. I was so mad. Bill thought that i was scared, i could see it. But i wasn't. I was so mad. Thanks to them, i could have lost my baby. I could have died. They ruined my and Bill's realitionship. They wouldn't get away with this. I could hear their disgusting voices scream stuff like; Katy is a fat whore! Bill is only together with her because he doesn't wanna be alone anymore! Katy is a stupid bitch and Bill hates you! Can you hear it, bitch? He H-A-T-E-S you! You ugly slut!
- Don't listen to them baby, it's not true. You know it. I love you, Bill replied over and over again. I just listened to his voice and ignored the stalkers words.
Tom
I smiled when i looked at Bill and Katy. They looked happy together and i knew that they could go through anything together.
Suddenly the nurse returned. She looked very serious. We looked at her.
- Your security guards are here. There is a limo waiting outside the hospital for you. There are about 12 guards. They will take you too the limo and drive you home. Okay?
- Okay, i said. Are the guards downstairs?
- Yes, she said. Hurry up now. I wanna get you out of here as soon as possible.
She didn't say it in a mean way. I understood her.
- We are very sorry that this happened, i said.
- It's okay. Now hurry up!
We ran down from the stairs and we met up with the guards. And than everything happened really fast.
Someone opened the big doors. Me, Bill & Katy had the security guards around us. And than we ran.
In that moment, i couldn't feel anything. It seemed like someone carried me to the limo. The world was quiet. So quiet. And we run. And run. I couldn't see that the limo came any closer. And why did i suddenly feel something sharp on my left arm?...
And than i looked at my left arm. It was covered with blood. One of the stalkers where running by my side with a knife and i freaked out. I screamed out loud and it broke the silence. This is the end, i thought for myself. We're not gonna make it.
I just wanted to give up.
