Tom Kaulitz From Tokio Hotel ‘I Am Not A Fan Of What Miley Cyrus Does Or What She Looks Like.’

Tokio Hotel interview excepts from Buzznet. Tom Kaulitz is not a fan of Miley Cyrus‘ face. Your goal was to break through in the United States. Do you have the feeling that you have attained it?

Tom: Frankly, none of us four expected that there’d be so many fans at our concerts. It has always been sold out and the public was as crazy over there as in Europe. I think, we have fulfilled our contract. The mission is accomplished in a way (laughter). Georg: We all feel to have managed to achieve something great. I don’t think that before us a German band has met such hype in the USA.

Yet, one can slow a bit down the enthusiasm of your American success: during your promo there, you have sold only 100,000 albums, while the goal was to reach 500,000..

Bill: You’re right, despite our efforts, ‘Scream’ has not really taken off in the U.S. charts. Frankly, I don’t know what the reason is. We have done our best to make our music known to as many people, but the US market is very difficult to access for foreign artists. However, without wanting to sing our own praises, selling 100,000 albums is still enormous for a German band. We are not disappointed by this result.

Tom: What we enjoyed the most was to receive an MTV Video Music Awards for Best New Artist. We didn’t expect that at all since we were in competition with Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry or Taylor Swift, who are far more popular than us over there. To receive this award was a real shock. To date, it may be the best reward we have received for our career. In addition, I must say that I really enjoyed seeing the confused puss of Miley Cyrus when the winners, in other words us, have been announced.. (laughter)

You don’t seem to have taken her to your heart..

Tom: On the one hand, I am not a fan of what she does, plus, she doesn’t have the physical criteria that I look for in a girl. So, everything is said. (laughter) Bill: Tom talks bullshit, as usual! He is an uptight fan of “Hannah Montana”, I’ve have already caught him watching some episodes secretly. (laughter) Tom: We will settle that tonight. Secretly..
