Robbie Williams Considering Changing Name To “E.T. Foanhome”

Well, the name-change bit might be a stretch, but it seems the days when Robbie was a chipper lad about town are well and truly over. First he refused to join in the Take That reunion party, then he started growing a crazy-man beard, then he started enthusing about mysterious phenomena, and now it seems Robbie must be doing little more than sitting in a dark room filled with those old ‘I WANT TO BELIEVE’ posters and wearing an XXXL t-shirt with an alien smoking a bong on it saying ‘Take Me To Your Dealer!’ Yes, Mr Rock DJ has definitely entered the arena of the unwell:

Robbie, 34, said a weird black light flew into his recording studio in Los Angeles and out again as he and pals watched stunned.

He said: “I had just finished writing a song called Arizona, which is about alien abduction, when there was this glow. It was magic.”

Ohh deeearr… You know, I’m as much of a believer as the next person, but I have a feeling Robbie is soon going to start insisting his imaginary friend Oswald the giant pink bunny rabbit sits in on all his press junkets. Just take the closing line from that Sun story:

Now Robbie plans to go out on a jet ski to look for UFOs reported to have landed in the sea.

Farewell, Robbie, we hardly knew ye.
