Robbie Williams Is Looking Well, Isn’t He?

9:29AM Jess McGuire | Just check out that beautiful mug, why don’t you? It’s great to see the former fat dancer from Take That (thank you, Noel Gallagher) looking so fresh faced and delightfully feminine! I know what you’re wondering… what has caused this special and rather interesting change in Robbie Williams’ appearance, eh? Is it the work of aliens? Or worse, Peter Andre? Relax, Robbie hasn’t gone mental due to hanging out with E.T/the Jordan-Price clan – he’s donning lady garments and a wig for a good cause! Looks like Robbie Williams has really embraced his feminine side during his time in the pop wilderness. The ex-Take That star, 35, goes all girlie for Comic Relief this Friday in a special sketch with Little Britain stars Matt Lucas and David Walliams. Ahh yes, Little Britain. The Footy Show of British comedy, if you will. Those lads have never come up with a man-in-a-dress sketch they didn’t like and go on to flog to death. Would you like to hear about Robbie’s character and motivation? Why not. More »

Robbie Williams’ Alien Obsession Continues…

12:43PM Jess McGuire | Oh god. Only a couple of weeks ago we learned that former pop superstar Robbie Williams made room in his diary for a spot of alien hunting with Peter Andre. Surreal and troubling, I’m sure you’d agree. Well, Robbie’s enthusiasm when it comes to flying saucers is a strong as ever, and it’s now influencing his real estate purchasing decisions. Robbie Williams has moved to an area famed for alien sightings. The former Take That singer – who is reportedly obsessed with extra-terrestrials – has just bought a £7million English country estate that is crossed with ‘ley lines’ – invisible energy routes believed to attract aliens. Didn’t they also have something to do with The Da Vinci Code? Robbie’s obviously well aware he sounds more and more like a nutter these days, saying: More »

Robbie Williams Is Going Alien Hunting

10:31AM Jess McGuire | Remember this glorious period in Robbie Williams’ career? Or when he was singing successful duets with assorted pop stars/movie actresses? And canoodling hot older celebrities? Or singing adorably deranged songs about how he would make Hollywood fall in love with him (which, you know, they never did – but the sentiment was rather stirring, regardless of how impossible the man’s dreams were)? I just wanted you to remember Robbie Williams’ Good Times™ before informing you that the increasingly reclusive pop singer has asked Peter Andre to go alien hunting with him. Yes, Peter Andre. Yes, alien hunting. Says the always reliable (cough) FemaleFirst: More »

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

10:00AM Clem Bastow | 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.

Spice Girls Show Why They Weren’t Booked For The Live Earth Concert

8:12PM Jess McGuire | Seems like the newly reformed Spice Girls have chosen to slip on their giant platformed sneakers and stomp around the globe leaving carbon footprints to rival Madonna’s with news emerging that the lasses plan on flying from show to show in a private jet each. The Spice Girls’ much-hyped reunion tour this year will be shadowed by five private jets, it has been revealed, just in case any of the old rivalry should spill over again. Rather giving the lie to the happy talk of reconciliation and camaraderie at the launch of the tour, record label Virgin will lay on a quintet of Lear jets big enough to carry each of the Girls’ entourages, not least their seven children and collective nannies. We can’t blame the girls for wanting to chillax during their travels without having to hear Mel B natter on and on about Eddie Murphy (”Wot’s he liiiike, then ay?”) or line up for the toilet every time nature calls because the heavily knocked up Emma Bunton can’t keep her legs crossed for more than five minutes before needing to find a lavatory quick sticks, etc. We enjoy this particular bit of brutality in the article. Fearing the ravages of time on what little talent the Spice Girls previously had, their vocals will be broadcast via computer software that will correct any bum notes in less than one-tenth of a second. Are they insinuating that perhaps, just perhaps, the Spice Girls are not a posse of vocally skilled feminists with a sharp sense of fashion and keen business acumen? Under the format, A-list celebrities from around the world including Elton John and Robbie Williams in the UK and P Diddy and Mariah Carey in the US, ask questions of the girl band during live crosses. Our imagination has already run wild. Robbie Williams: Where’s my career gone? Can I have that Red Bull in your rider? P Diddy: (waving arms in air) Spice Girls, Spice Girls! We love you! We respect you! CAN YOU TAKE US TO THE BRIDGE?! More »
