Tom-Model

From the Stage into the Photostudio! BRAVO accompanied
Tokio Hotel Guitarist Tom at his first Job as a Model!

He jumps. He performs. He lets himself fall down. He’s giving 100%. Tom Kaulitz (20) in the spotlight – like so often. But…where are Bill (20), Gustav (21) and Georg (23)? Why is the Tokio Hotel Guitarist alone at a Shooting?
It’s simple: Tom is now a real Model – for Sneakers of the brand Reebok Classic.

BRAVO was at the first Fashion-Appearance of the 20 year old and noticed: It was strange for the musician to stand in front of the camera without his Band Colleagues: “This Shooting was the first one I did completely alone. I’m used to us being a group of four, or having my brother Bill with me“, he says, and starts joking:

“Finally I had the chance to let the photographer take good photos of me without taking the other four into account – they aren’t as photogenic as me.” Tom laughs loudly – and turns serious again. The guitarist has to be highly concentrated while working in the Daily Cube Studio in Hamburg.

“The jumps, performing, that was the physically most challenging Shooting I ever had to do.” And now? Can the Super-Twin imagine to model more often? “I would only advertise for things I like or where I can see myself in. That was always my resolution, that’s why I already missed a lot of opportunities to make more money…”
