#rammchallenge

I had no doubt in my mind, from the get-go, that this one, by Olaf Heine, was it.

JFC FAVORITE LOOK YOU SAY. FOR REAL.

Okay, imma gonna bite because it's my favorite boy ever in the history of favorite boys and this little bitch had me in a chokehold since he strolled all cool and with a fuck me attitude in that ballroom. Like. How dare you. Come closer.

Asshole.

First of all, there's the close cropped + hint of curls. Insane, I'm telling you. Insane.

Are you done smirking. Also, the ass shot is there because yes.

Let's move on .

I have a thing for suits. Suits adjacent. Ties. Formal look. Look at him, the CEO of His Majestic Bitchface. I like him so much, idk if you can tell. I like to keep my preferences under wraps.

Don't smile, you're ruining my point.

The tormented model look is also A LookTM

But what about the emo era? He's so fucking cute I can't

Or the grey era. The grey. Look at that arm, flexing so sluttily in that harness. This is a personal attack. Do it again.

Are you done, T? you ask. No.

I'm not really into daddy kink, but I can make exceptions. Like. For this.

As you can see, the short hair style is obviously superior. However, I have a couple more points to illustrate

Exihibit A - No Boobs, We're Flat & Proud (plus I like the shoes)(hi, Flake! My second favorite! Do you see a pattern, no you don't)

Exihibit B - FRAU (who said gun kink)

The challenge is almost ending (unfortunately) so who am I to stop cheating now, right? 🤷🏻‍♀️ (I'll leave my very favourite to the end)

Everything and anything Frau Schneider, to be honest, but this little chuckle while explaining he's playing the mother of the perpetrator always gets me.

Frau Schneider setting straight her favourite puppy, particularly when she steps on his back. 🖤 (sorry, Till. You deserved it)

That lovely (Baltic) sea moment Jens graced us with and sneakingly showing love to his bandmate.

Precious little moments: kissing the little puppy during that photoshoot and hugging that other puppy.

And, finally, my most favourite one, caught with my own (cellphone) camera, last year in Barcelona.

[decided to make something different for this day, but ended becoming overwhelmed and didn't managed to post on the right day. So, today we have a 2 for 1 promotion of Paul]

Whenever I think of a 'Paul moment', it's always a funny, silly and/or sarcastic one. My most favourite usually involve him partnering with Till, because I just love their chaotic energy together. So, I decided to make a little gifset of my favourite Paul moments of last year's concert in Barcelona, caught with my (cellphone) camera.

💦💃🏻🖤🐑🐂

Well, this was, probably, the hardest one to make without cheating (hence, why I did not comply), because smiling Till is my most favourite Till. I absolutely love when he smiles, it makes me happy. So, this turned into and ode to his different smiles. Bear with me. 😅

I'll start with one of my very favourites. I don't know if the photo is originally taken like this (I'd assume not) or edited, because I could never find a source (if any one has it, please send me or feel free to add). Still, I really like the effect and his expression (it's the dimple for me, every time...).

Edit: Thanks to lovely @dandysnob, I'm realising it's an edit from this one on the right, with the other Til. Guess the person who altered it wasn't a fan of the 2019 look either. 🤭 (all the rest still valid though)

There's the creepy stage smile, that, suddenly changes from this to a death stare.

When he puts his whole body into it, probably after some childlike humour content he heard or created. 🙈

The shy smile - I feel like it's, usually, when he's saying or doing something stupid.

The genuine, wrinkle-dimple-showing (Morgana destroyer) smile.

And when he smiles with them...🖤

(I never know how to go about this part 🙈)

This photo, from Live Aus Berlin, by Olaf Hein, is just majestic.

This other one here:

Any moment featuring the mask flamethrower.

The way he tilts his head when he sings to the microphone on fire, during Asche Zu Asche, here from Völkerball. 🫠

The way he throws himself when playing...

There's also these (other) very characteristic Diva moments: the "looking good playing guitar is important" moments; the leg movement™ and how enthusiastic he gets, pumping the crowd up, particularly during Du Hast and Keine Lust.

This particular moment here from Sonne's Making Of, because he just looks too adorable.

(gif source)

This moment from the Ich Will music video, that always reminds me of a Joker scene (can't remember from where, but it's not the "Have your ever danced with devil in the pale moonlight" one. It's from one of the animated movies or it was created in my head. I'll find out which at some point).

Whenever he's petting and hugging his bestie. 🥹

(little Deutschland mess bonus)

And, of course, the iconic Jens Koch's photograph, of Richard and Paul stage kissing during Ausländer, in 2019, in Russia, also immortalized in the beautiful "Was ich liebe" t-shirt. A very Rammstein way to say that, Liebe ist für alle da indeed.

For round two of @wizzardclown's 6 x 5 Challenge, we have the chaotic little fella. Our cute ray of sunshine, professional clown and guitar juggler, known for making VERY questionable hair choices, instigator of larger men, Lord of mischief, best lederhosen wearer in the history of lederhosen wearers and owner of our collective hearts.

So let's start with stage outfits. There's two in particular that came to mind:

The 2016 Stadium Tour

2. And the LIFAD look, with the complete outfit (honestly? It's the chains and the leather bracelets. And, maybe, because it's a black outfit),

but, also, this special one from the Barcelona concert, with the shorts.

But, my most favourite of all, is definitely this one:

As for day-to-day looks and hairstyles, I have a thing for blond Paul

And comfy Paul in this particular black sweater. But, before someone gets me mistaken with the wrong crowd here, I decided to make some changes, so we can focus on the only good parts of this photo.

It's our favourite lovely giant's turn! The youngest of the bunch, who looks very calm, but, also, very cheeky. 😏

So let's see. I actually enjoy most of his outfits, even though (thankfully), he enjoys to be shirtless a lot, but when thinking about this, the lace looks where the first pictures in my head. Although, to me, he's the most beautiful of the six, I do enjoy when his outfits cover his face. I guess it just fits his on stage aura.

There's also the red suit from the 2019 Stadium Tour (I guess for once that Era is not credited in the least favourites 🤭).

And this other one, where he looked like some kind of warrior.

Maybe that's why I also very much liked this look he had in the Mein Herz Brennt music video.

And, another look that popped immediately, was this one from the 98 Berlin concert. I guess the heart loves what the heart loves. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Honorable mention to this particular one from 2022, with that painting on the chest and arms and the necklace.

Not entirely a fan of the whole 2009 Kerrang photoshoot look, but I do love him with this eyeliner. 🫠

As for day-to-day looks, Olli is usually very sporty, embracing a bit of a surfer/skater look, that's not usually my thing, but suits him well. My favourite looks on him are when he looks cozy like this.

Oh, wait! I forgot something! This even cozier look, in a moment shared with Minni. Love that sweater on him. 🖤
