The Oktoberfest kiss with Tokio Hotel singer Bill Kaulitz suddenly brought YouTuber Marc Eggers into the spotlight. Many are now wondering who the man is. Answers can be found in old interviews.
The name Marc Eggers has been in the headlines a lot recently because he made out with Tokio Hotel frontman Bill Kaulitz in the Käfer tent at the Oktoberfest. In his podcast “Kaulitz Hills,” Bill Kaulitz even raved about the 36-year-old Eggers and the Oktoberfest, as the “Express” reports: “I snorted a bit, but only in passing. I ate from Marc’s plate. It was Very tasty and it was very wild and it was very beautiful – but I don’t remember everything.”
The fans are beside themselves because they believe that their idol Kaulitz has finally found his better half. But Marc Eggers is also no stranger, he was already seen on TV in 2010 on “Das Supertalent” and made it to the semi-finals with his talent: breakdancing. A year later he won the German championship with his team “Reckless Bunch”.
At “Supertalent” he also met his ex-girlfriend Kiki. In an interview with “OK” magazine in 2012, he raved about her, saying that she “didn’t want to be in the foreground” and would “prefer to have his back,” “I think that’s good.” Qualities that Eggers appreciates in his partners. Eggers was also already in a relationship with the “Fack ju Göhte” actress Gizem Emre.
Bill Kaulitz’s Oktoberfest flirt used to have little money
In the “OK” interview, he also revealed that he works “very hard” and can therefore “afford many things at a young age that others only dream of.” His mantra was then and probably still is today: “With a lot of work and ambition and belief in yourself, you have your own destiny in your hands.”
Above all, his trained body secured him a few modeling jobs, but this level of fitness was not easy for him. Sport is “simply hard training, ambition, discipline”. He said in an interview with “Promiflash” in 2013: “You have to be a little bit crazy. You have to torture yourself every day. It’s not easy for me either.”
In the morning he always has to eat a lot of protein to build muscle. “And sometimes I’m really close to throwing up because I don’t like these things at all.” It was his girlfriend at the time who motivated him. “I sometimes wake up in the morning and think, ‘Shit, I have to eat breakfast now,'” Eggers admitted at the time.
He also talks about a dark time in his life because he used to have little money. At that time, in order to be able to pay his rent and have something to eat, he “danced in the street; I actually had nothing. And if you know what it’s like to have nothing, then you also know the high model- “To appreciate his fees, his expensive watches, all the jewelry, expensive bags and also the designer clothes more,” he told “OK”.
You can still see on his YouTube channel that he has a penchant for expensive clothing. There he wears shirts with large logos, such as those from Givenchy. He also advertises his own hair care line there so that all of his followers can have hair exactly like his own. In any case, he doesn’t lack self-confidence.
On Instagram he only posts model pictures of himself in the feed, and he has already shot for the men’s magazine “GQ”. His posts include innocuous questions to his fans, such as how their weekend was or he wishes them a nice day/weekend/evening or asks which of two sunglasses they like better.
Marc Eggers’ street surveys cause mixed reactions
His YouTube street polls are the complete opposite. There he asks complete strangers how many people they have had sex with or how faithful they are. Eggers sometimes gives out unsolicited kisses or wants to know what a woman calls her two breasts. When she says they don’t have names yet, Marc Eggers suggests that one breast could be called Marc like him. “Watch out, I’m coming from behind,” seems to be one of his favorite conversation starters.
His followers attest that he walks the “thin line between bold and charming”. “Marc is that guy who cheats on your girlfriend and you give him a high five for it.”
Even though his videos regularly have over a million views, not everyone likes his style. YouTuber Shashka, for example, criticizes him. “Humiliation for clicks,” she calls it. “Primitive teasing in front of the camera, vulgar questions. Everything for the clicks”. Shashka wants more people to question whether “these types of videos are really okay” and whether “it can really be tolerated” that people can be exposed and treated like this for entertainment purposes.
