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.
