Tokio Hotel's trophy shelf tells a story of firsts. They were the first German band to win an MTV Video Music Award, taking home Best New Artist in 2008. That same year they also won at the MTV Video Music Awards Latin America, another first for a German act. Their four MTV Europe Music Awards include Best Group and Best World Stage Performance, wins that reflect their global reach. In 2011, they added a win at the MTV Video Music Awards Japan, completing a rare trifecta of MTV international honors. These awards, combined with sales of over 10 million records, place them among the most successful German bands in history.
