| Robbie Williams Biography |
It's hard to qualify Robbie Williams in any way, because he just does not
fit in any category. Maybe this is the reason he hates fame. Being a
celebrity puts you into the focus of spotlight, thus becoming an object of
all types of qualifications. And Robbie never stops showing his irony as to
how the media is overdoing in its struggle to make the most of the
showbusiness, by chasing celebrities and turning their lives into ceaseless
public affairs. Nevertheless, the former member of the British teen pop
group Take That is currently one of the biggest pop stars in the UK and
Europe. Probably, by breaking the mole in spotlight behavior, he has just
appeared to be more appealing to the public attention. After leaving Take
That in 1995 due to conceptual incompatibility with the band's management,
Robbie takes the plunge into a solo career, debuting with a smash cover
version of George Michael's "Freedom." His first album Life Thru A Lens
(1997) spawns hits as "Old Before I Die" and the Christmas single "Angels."
The latter single turns the debut album into a chart-topper half a year
after its official release. Robbie's subsequent albums - "Millennium" (1998)
and "I've Been Expecting You" are just doomed to straight success. With the
compilation of tracks from those two albums dubbed "The Ego Has Landed"
Robbie tries to break into the American market, but remains a much bigger
star at home. His following release "Sing When You're Winning" (2000) is
another brilliant UK album, followed by the equally successful "Swing When
You're Winning", featuring his prominent duet with Nicole Kidman on
"Something Stupid". 2002's Escapology and 2003's Live At Knebworth continue
Williams' success.
In personal life Williams goes through romantic links to a bunch of
widely-famous cuties: former model and actress Rachel Hunter and The Corrs
member, Andrea Corr. He even scores an engagement to ex-All Saints member
Nicole Appleton.
Williams' contribution to the UK music is rewarded with an entry into the UK
Music Hall of Fame in 2004. Apart from the dazzling career and intriguing
intimate life, Robbie is involved in a great deal of publicly useful
activities such as being an activist for UNICEF.
