There's only one Robbie Williams. Top entertainer. Top guy. Class clown. Class act.
A man so maddeningly cool he can hold an audience in the palm of his handwhile, ahem, adjusting himself with the other. Small wonder (ahem again) that the man is hailed as the UK's most gifted and celebrated star.
But, as true artists so often are, Robbie Williams is a complex and quixotic soul. Despite a gold-certified U.S. debut in The Ego Has Landed, record-breaking worldwide sales (approximately 5 million combined for previous LPs Life Thru A Lens and I've BeenExpecting You), unfailingly incendiary live shows and rabid worldwide acclaim, Williams has spent his share of time shrouded in confusion
