History Music / TokioHotel

** ''Humanoid'', turning the band's genre from rock to electro-like music. Definitely a change, but since live instruments are still used, their sound is still recongnizable.

* TakeThat: At the Golden Kamera awards, Bill, instead of the usual acceptance speech, proceeded to give a sarcastic thank you to everyone who called him [[MistakenForGay gay]], anorexic, etc, and was basically a big "fuck you" to all the ridiculous rumors they had been barraged with.

* DisappearedDad: The twins' father.

* DudeLooksLikeALady: Bill Kaulitz and, arguably, Tom Kaulitz (although maybe not anymore). Encyclopedia Dramatica has a page on Bill that refers to him entirely as a hot woman.
** His 2013 look [[AvertedTrope averts]] this, as he now sports [[http://www.tokiohotelamerica.com/mag/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/bk483.png a mustache and a beard]], as well as [[http://24.media.tumblr.com/4e8b8a03bb431fe005a9911132c65895/tumblr_mjx5w2tt201qbpslgo1_500.jpg muscular hairy arms]].
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: Bill.
** Averted as of 2017. Bill tends to sport either bright pink or bleached-blonde hair.
* EvenTheGuysWantHim: Bill, especially if DudeLooksLikeALady is kicking in.
* MrFanservice: The twins, especially Bill.
* GarageBand: They started out this way.
* GeorgeLucasAlteredVersion: The video for "Scream" is this to the video for "Schrei". It features most of the same party clips, with the band scenes being re-shot by the now noticably older band members.
* {{Guyliner}}: Bill
* HotterAndSexier: When the band first reached success, Bill's use of makeup and his general style was meant to look more punk-rock than anything. However, as he grew up, he effectively turned into a sexy bishonen and is now widely recognized for his sex appeal. At one point he was called "the most beautiful face since Elizabeth Taylor" and recently won the "Sexiest Vegetarian" award.
* HumongousMecha: Their "Automatic/Automatisch" music video.
* IntercourseWithYou: The song "Reden", which in English means "to talk". The actual song is definitely not about talking.
** "Human Connect to Human" and "Down on You"
** And now from their newest album, ''Kings Of Suburbia'', Love Who Loves You Back
* JerkAss: Tom Kaulitz borders on this during interviews.
* LongRunnerLineUp: Type 1. There was a brief two-year hiatus between 2011 and 2013 but the line up has been the same since their formation in ''2001'', albeit under a different name (Devilish) until 2003.
* MetalScream: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suRNNOeDIEA SCHREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEIIII!!!!]]"
* MindScrew: The "Rette Mich" video.
* NewSoundAlbum: "Humanoid", turning the band's genre from rock to... electro? Definitely a change, but since live instruments are still used, their sound is still recongnizable.
** "Kings of Suburbia" completely changed the band's sound from electro-rock to synth-pop/electro, and very little live instruments are used. "Humanoid" was the stepping stone to the sound overhaul.
* ParentalAbandonment: The twins' dad.
* PrettyFlyForAWhiteGuy: Tom Kaulitz.
* RagingStiffie: Tom Kaulitz illegally took Viagra in Taiwan and apparently had a boner for three days.
* SeriousBusiness: Bill Kaulitz is so beloved that he is ''immortalized in wax.''
* SmokingIsCool
* StalkerWithACrush: Many angry fans accuse Music/AdamLambert to be this because of how he seems to copy Bill's style and outfit choices. The fact that he has stated on multiple occasions that he does, indeed, have a crush on Bill doesn't help.

* TheRival: Cinema Bizarre and Killerpilze are fellow German bands consisting of bishonen, and both said some nasty things about the band in the past.
* ThoseTwoGuys: Georg and Gustav.

* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: Bill.
** Averted as of 2017. Bill tends to sport either bright pink or bleached-blonde hair.

* MemeticMutation: Sometime around 2006 to 2008, 4chan got a hold of Bill. It wasn't entirely uncommon to see his face cropping up in "You Fall In Love You Lose" or otherwise being placed in threads for sexy women.

* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: In the late 2000's, the band was ''insanely'' popular in France and Belgium.

* StalkerWithACrush: Many angry fans accuse AdamLambert to be this because of how he seems to copy Bill's style and outfit choices. The fact that he has stated on multiple occasions that he does, indeed, have a crush on Bill doesn't help.

* TheRival: CinemaBizarre and Killerpilze are fellow German bands consisting of bishonen, and both said some nasty things about the band in the past.

* CelebrityIsOverrated: A lot of Bill Kaulitz's lyrics are about how being famous made him feel alienated from the world, especially in the song "Humanoid".

* HotterAndSexier: When the band first reached success, Bill's use of makeup and his general stlye was meant to look more punk-rock than anything. However, as he grew up, he effectively turned into a sexy bishonen and is now widely recognized for his sex appeal. At one point he was called "the most beautiful face since Elizabeth Taylor" and recently won the "Sexiest Vegetarian" award.
