The Year in Performances

From giant fests to tiny clubs

Who was the biggest star of 2008?

Who had the most impact on the year that was, who inspired the most headlines or generated the biggest amount of buzz? It’s really tough to say … yet, for decades now, plenty of magazines have been doing just that (we’re looking at you, Time). And so, after years of sitting on the sidelines, we here at MTV News have decided to get in on the act too.

Unveiling MTV’s list of the most fascinating, controversial and, well, German men of the year. These are the artists, actors and pop-culture heavyweights who dominated the headlines here at MTVNews.com.

Our Bill comes in at #6 !!!

6. Bill Kaulitz

2008 Highlights: Maintained his epically spiked plumage and remarkable, porcelain-like complexion for the entirety of the year … Haunted our dreams and tricked fans into singing in German … Took over Times Square and confessed his love for David Hasselhoff … Released his band’s first English-language album, Scream … Gave an interview dressed in what appeared to be Michael Jackson’s jacket from the “Thriller” video … Arrived at the Video Music Awards atop a supercharged monster truck … Immortalized in wax … Professed his love for American Halloween candy (but not warheads) … Got new tattoos … Inspired a level of devotion from his fans that was both shocking and frightening.
