Windows 8 Metro app (XAML) - How to set a default startup language?

Question

I try to set a default startup language in my Windows Metro app in App.xaml.cs, but I cannot find the place to do it. Usually I set this up using Thread.CurrentCulture in C#, but I cannot locate the Thread namespace. Anything I am missing here?

This works great in Windows8 CP:

Windows.Globalization.ApplicationLanguages.PrimaryLanguageOverride = "de";
var resourceLoader = new ResourceLoader();
