Tokio Hotel celebrated becoming the first ever German band to win an MTV Video Music Award on Sunday night fittingly, with a wild after party. Georg (21), Gustav (20) and twins Bill and Tom, who have just turned 19, talked to BILD from Los Angeles and shared all the details of the night.
Bill accepted the band’s ‘moonman’ trophy for ‘Best Newcomer’ in front of millions of TV viewers, thanking his fans in flawless English: “We want to thank our fans all over the world today.”
He later told BILD: “When we first got the award we were in complete shock. And then Tom drank us under the table until 5am.” The boys went to a private party thrown by the Interscope Universal record label in Santa Monica.
Tom: “We just wanted to really party! Just like superstars like Britney, Christina Aguilera, Pink or Kid Rock.”
Vodka with Red Bull was Tokio Hotel’s drink of the night, along with a couple glasses of celebratory champagne – and, they admitted, some water to keep them going.
“It was a cool party,” said Tom. “And the girls here are awesome. They kept screaming every time we appeared.”
The boys finally called it a night when the sun came up, going to sleep at the four-star *removed for privacy* Hotel.
Tokio Hotel will appear on a US talk show and then return to Germany to start recording their third album. There is no doubt that their German and American fans can’t wait for its release.

I was there! It was amazing! I couldnt believe it when Lauren Conrad said their name, me and the people i was standing with on the outer edges of the show were like in complete shock and we thought we heard wrong until we saw the band jump up and freak out!
Haha there were people break dancing outside the after party to try and get security to let them in.
XD
My hotel balcony faced the hotel they were staying at! :)
Amazing night!
Congrats to the boys!
NOW GO TAKE A BREAK TOKIO HOTEL!
XD

the Tokio Hotel boys, that is. not that there’s anything wrong with the college boys – except that they’re kinda dumbassed some of the time and their faces look like blobbish amoebas next to the perfect, sculptured beauty of Tokio Hotel. lol

ah so cute, Tom drinking everyone under the table until 5 am… is love….
what was I doing on monday at 5 am? I believe I was.. asleep.
Yeah, that’s so much better than partying in Los Angeles with the coolest band in the world… *head bash* but at least I got to watch the VMAs on a nice huge big screen! and terrify the boys of B Section, who were having a nice quiet meeting in the room next door, when I screamed loud enough to break the sound barrier. Hahaha.
I want to party with the boys someday!!! seriously! = life ambition ^_^

Sounds like they had tons of fun! I just hope their hangovers weren’t too bad :/
@11 That’s a lot of nominations! And they’re Mexican awards, too! They didn’t spend much time there at all, and it was just recently.

Ooooh, the Removed for Privacy Hotel! I’ve heard that’s a good one. ;-)
Ha ha, j/k…. XP
I just finished the alcohol education program for my university so I’m kind of bashing my head against the table here, but I’m glad they had fun and I hope they never get in trouble over here (well, or anywhere), ’cause I don’t want anything to stop them from coming back and rocking out with me in the States! XD
Congrats, boys. :-D And YAYYYYY NEW ALBUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ***SO*** exciting! Hell, more exciting than the VMAs, I think. ;-) :-D

Hmm, yeah. As long as this doesn’t result in any actual underage drinking arrests which might impact any future work visas then… hmmm, yeah.
But congrats anyway.

HAHAAHA I love how a german(?) paper is the one to reveal that they did actually celebrate with alcohol (and I was wondering how they’d have a good time after their win if they were going to follow the laws in the states?). But I also wonder how they got away with it ….or perhaps they really didn’t, and that’s why it was a “private party” and was not splashed across american headlines or anything…that was clever of them. Well done guys!
