Bill Kaulitz (36) has started his detox, and the initial footage is anything but glamorous. “And now off to my detox” (German: “Und jetzt geht’s los mit meiner Entgiftungskur”), the Tokio Hotel singer wrote in his Instagram Stories alongside a clip that shows him makeup-free in the passenger seat of a moving car, wearing a white T-shirt and a white cap. He forms a kissy face, but appears markedly more serious than usual. He offered no explanation at first.
The next clip speaks volumes. Kaulitz is breathing hard, dark sweat marks appear on his dark gray shirt, his hair tied back under a blue cap. “detox started. here we go. first workout done” (German: “Die Entgiftungskur hat begonnen. Los geht’s. Das erste Training ist geschafft”), he adds again in his typically terse style. He doesn’t reveal exactly what’s on the schedule. What’s clear is that a lot of sweat is happening.
Earlier it was “With Mama in Rome”
The 36-year-old had already given himself some downtime beforehand. In early August he posted a selfie from the Trevi Fountain in Rome, surrounded by tourists, with his mother by his side. “With Mama in Roma” (German: “Mit Mama in Rom”) he explained. In the comments, moderator Marlene Lufen praised Kaulitz’s mother, and drag queen Katy Bähm expressed enthusiasm for her new haircut.
Two Weeks Without a Podcast
That Bill Kaulitz would have time for a city trip and a detox program at this moment had been announced. In a July episode of their podcast “Kaulitz Hills — Senf aus Hollywood,” he and his twin brother Tom announced a break: “There will be no ‘Kaulitz Hills’ for two weeks.” They joked they were “on continuous broadcasting” and Tom speculated that the two were “getting on everyone’s nerves again.”
In fact, the twins had been more visible than ever: with the third season of their Netflix series “Kaulitz & Kaulitz,” with the announced return of “Wetten, dass..?”, with the podcast, and with Tom serving as a “fan expert” for MagentaTV during the FIFA World Cup. On top of that came Tokio Hotel’s new single “Without You”; the brothers say the album is nearly finished.

He had announced a detox before
The term detox had already appeared in the Kaulitz cosmos, though in a completely different context. At the start of the third season of “Kaulitz & Kaulitz,” the singer prescribed himself a “penis detox” because his dating life had recently gotten too wild (TheColu.mn reported). Brother Tom gave the vow “maybe two hours” at the time, and proved to be right (TheColu.mn reported).
With the current Instagram Stories, that probably has little to do. This appears to be about the body and not about relationship status. There was a comparable moment in the show as well: “Bill has no balance,” Tom noted during a joint health check and prescribed a running workout. The head is fine; now the body has to catch up. Bill Kaulitz has at least completed his first workout.
