Oh, we have something for you that is priceless, for so many reasons: a clip of Bill Kaulitz, the dreamboat(?) lead singer for German import Tokio Hotel, performing on Star Search Germany at age 13. Yes, it’s true!
The future emo-pop star, looking every bit like a tiny elfin creature out of “Lord of the Rings,” flails his rail-thin arms around like a true diva. And what is he singing? “It’s Raining Men.” Can you get more lost-in-translation than that?? Honestly, there’s a lot to process in a clip that’s under two minutes.
After the jump, you can check out the video of a pint-sized Bill (well, he’s not that much bigger now) belting out the fabulous disco hit. About scoring men.

Homer: Aw, come on, everybody. This bar is like a tavern to me.
Moe: Sorry, Homer, you should have thought of that before you gave me the old sugar-me-do. I'm taking your caricature down from Mount Lushmore and I'm taking your favorite song out of the juke box.
Homer: "It's Raining Men"?
Moe: Not no more it ain't.
and hey it's not like he chose to sing this song. lol but he did a very good job with it!! His voice sounded good.
I love little kid Bill he's such a cutie and I love his smile :)
But anyway he did a very good job in that^
:)
contestants should be fired for the song she picked for Bill who obviously had no clue what the song meant since he didn't speak english at the time and had to learnt it phonetically.the annoying thing is that so many people is under the impression that Bill himself picked the song.
Btw, you do know people do not pick their own songs on that show?
Bill here, none ohf whiich are true! Bill is NOT gay, and that is that...ok!!
Bill I am crazy about you. Tokio Hotel is love. A huge kiss 4 all TH fans.
Good job MTV.
Somewhere Bill's currently having a coronary RIGHT NOW.
but Daniela is right [comment up there a bit ^] they're only just starting to fully understand english now - as if he would've known what he was singing !!
& eithere way - 'tiz ADORABLE!
bill is soo adorable
DEVILISH

I think he did a great job, going out there and perfroming the song, despite all the riddicule people must have put him trough!
Y'all need to lay off MTV they obviously love Bill as much as we do and we get that he didn't pick the song or know what he was singing about.
I hope this bringing the videos is a regular thing.
This is one ov my faves :D

Poor thing though, making him sing that song!!
To the fangirls, CHILL! They are not saying Bill is gay. They are not even trashing on him. They called it "priceless" and attributed it to being "lost in translation".
This video is part of the reason for my love of Bill. I love that he's always been an adorable little weirdo. This is just proof that all the people saying that Bill is just creating an image are WRONG. He didn't create this eccentric image to gain popularity. He created this eccentric image because Bill is eccentric! That's exactly why I love him. I mean, just look at what he wore back in the Devilish days. Striped red socks and a red pleated skirt, anyone? How about those glorious orange and green pants?
Little Pixie Bill is probably one of the cutest things on the planet and I am so happy that MTV posted this.
By the whole priceless thing i feel like people are trying to bring him down.
Shows how much time people have on their hands get a life.
MTV is a load of crap you were nice to the guys kissing there cute butts and now your trying to get a laugh out of them like making fun of them.Plus you guys are abit late real fans of Tokio Hotel already have seen this clip before if your a true fan of them.
So laugh is on you.
He was, is and will be ONE OF A KIND
TOKIO HOTEL FOREVER!
You guys should check out the other band members when they were little.
Mini-Tom's dreads were the best XD
And little Gustav's cape was cute too
More Tokio Hotel I say!
Bill prob dreads this lmao.
hes sooo cute.
i actually thought he was 10 before i read this.
hes so skinny.
but soo CUTE.
hes still skinny (=
erm...do you think he understands everything hes singing ? coz at this age, they only learned english in school. i dunno, lmao.
ich liebe dich (L) BILL
i love him like this.
LOL!! LMAO!!!
He totally rocked this! And MTV lay-off. I knew you guys would dig this up and start making jokes and stuff because TH is big here now and just for starters, he didn't pick the song but who cares. He's hotter now!
And I have to agree with Sarah on this one. Oh, MTV! You know you LOVE Tokio Hotel. Or will you only admit to LIKE liking them? Either way it's sweet. I can't wait to see what your Google-stalking (or is it YouTube-stalking) comes up with next!
xoxo,
Charlotte
Admit it, MTV - you love Tokio Hotel just as much as we do. ;) Keep the Tokio Hotel news coming! :D
The article says he hasn't gotten much bigger. He's 6'2" without the hair (which is amazing), and that's pretty darn tall.
I mean, IMO that would be funny as hell and show he had a sense of humor. It wouldn't mean he was necessarily gay and who cares if he was.
I wish it was raining men. Raining men like BILL KAULITZ! ahh....i wish it was raining Bill Kaulitzes and Tom Kaulitzes and Gustav Schafers and Georg Listings...eekk XD
