29.11.05 RTL Punkt 12 (with Translation) X (a)



Translation:

Woman: "I didn't know that there was alcohol in the drink" That's how Tom, from the band Tokio Hotel, tries to justify his behaviour at
the "Live Krone Award". Or the Youth Office will be satisfied with that is questionably. We have spoken to a mother of a fourteen-year-old
son. .... and .... (Didn't got their names) have reported how she handles the fame of her son and the dangers that are connected with it.
R (Reporter): There is need for an explanation from the Tokio Hotel boys, or at least we want to know what Tom has to say. He is guilty
of inappropriate behaviour with a girl because of alcohol. (He doesn't say that exactly, but it means pretty much the same).
"A good-looking girl gave me a coloured drink and I was in such a celebration-mood that I didn't notice there was alcohol in it. (...) The
next time I watch out what I'm drinking"
That doesn't sound very honest, especially when you hear what the boys said about alcohol a week ago:
Female reporter: Do you use any drugs?
All: Negative...
Georg/Bill: A bit alcohol...
Reporter: That's not really a drug
Bill: Well, it is drugs, but --
Tom: It's isn't hard drugs. We all drink some alcohol sometimes, but no real drugs.
Some guy: [Talks about protecting the youth from alcohol with prison- or money-punishment and stuff]
First reporter again: ... is fourteen years old and very successful, he thinks the Tokio Hotel boys are really cool (but....).
Boy: Because a lot of young people listen to their music and take them as an example I don't think it is okay... (The alcohol I guess)
Reporter: When he goes to parties or video prerecording his mother is always with him.
Mother: I'm afraid that he comes in contact with drugs or alcohol, or tobacco...

Translation:

Reporter: Stress for Tokio Hotel; dispute with the Youth Services.
Frauke Ludowig: Good evening, I’m Frauke Ludowig. They’re practically flooded with prizes, but strictly they can’t really celebrate their success, because three of them haven’t come off age yet. So hard drinks and late parties aren’t allowed without supervision. But Tokio Hotel doesn’t takes the youth protection laws that serious, so now they’re in trouble with Youth Yervices.

Reporter: The Eins Live Krone at last Thursday; Tokio Hotel breaks all the “scream-records” at the red carpet again. The four teenagers where awarded with the “Best Newcomer-prize”. But even more then about their prize, the boys are exited about the after show-party.
Interviewer: Will you go to the after show party tonight?
Tom: Yeah, I guess so. We always do.
Georg: We’ve heard that these parties are really good, so we’re looking forward to it.
Reporter: The least thing you could say is that the party was to their liking. After several alcoholic cocktails, Tom apparently wasn’t able to keep himself standing on his own anymore. So now the Youth Service is keeping an eye on them; a social worker will contact their parents. They were, just like the organizers of the Eins Live Krone, inder the impression that the young musicians were supervised during the party.

“Eins Live Chef”: It’s our responsibility to make sure that the band is supervised before the event, because they haven’t come off age yet, and so we did. We’ve agreed with the management that there’d be people to accompany the band, and they’ve said they would take care of it. I don’t know if they have done their job well enough or not.
Reporter: Because it is said that they each had one (supervisor) at the party. The Youth Services are checking if one of them hasn’t done his job. You could call it mini bar inspection in Tokio Hotel (?).

Interviewer: And what about drugs?
Gustav: Negative… [Rest agrees]
Georg: Just a bit of alcohol sometimes.
Bill: Yeah.
Interviewer: That’s a not drug.
Bill: Well, officially it is, but…
Tom: It’s not a hard drug. We all drink a bit of alcohol sometimes but further… no drugs.
Reporter: Even though a lot of parents are now shaking their heads in shock the buys from Tokio Hotel are behaving live perfectly normal youths; according to statistics the average youth – pop star or not – is drunken for the first time at fifteen-and-a-half.
