Williams was later booed by a section of the crowd when he quipped: “I’ll look like Mark Owen by the time I come off… I shouldn’t have said that, should I?”

Robbie Williams and Take That reunion on hold as Mark Owen battles issues in rehab

The reunion between Robbie Williams and Take That has been postponed as Mark Owen battles his problems in rehab.
The band had booked a recording studio in Wiltshire last weekend, but it was cancelled after Owen's wife Emma kicked him out over his 10 affairs.
Owen, 38, who is receiving help for issues with booze, drugs and depression while at the clinic, has been told by the band he can take as much time out as he needs.
A source said: "They were all heading down there, Robbie included, but the plan has been scrapped for now. All they care about is Mark at the moment and it wouldn't feel the same all of them practising for their comeback without him."

Robbie Williams Kept On A Strict Excercise Regime

Ayda Field has reportedly forced the singer to hire a trainer so he can shed the pounds he has piled on in recent years. She hopes a new toned physique will inspire Robbie to finally set a wedding date, something he has been resisting.

"Robbie is training hard,” a source told British newspaper The Sun. “He is enjoying it and wants to do Ayda proud. She's putting pressure on him to shape up and set a wedding date."

Ayda is so desperate for Robbie to work out, she has even offered to babysit the personal trainer’s child so he can do extras sessions with the star. She often looks after the tot while Robbie is exercising in his Los Angeles home, and the experience has left her even more keen to start a family of her own.

"Her clock is ticking, she's all maternal," the source added.

Robbie Williams asked Ayda to marry him in January and is said to be considering tying the knot on Valentine’s Day next year.

Robbie Williams, Take That and Jay-Z line-up for Simon Cowell's Haiti charity single

Robbie Williams, Kylie Minogue and Leona Lewis are to sing on Simon Cowell's charity single to raise funds for the victims of the Haiti earthquake.

The music mogul has rallied stars including Rod Stewart, James Blunt, Susan Boyle, X Factor judge Cheryl Cole and winners Joe McElderry, Alexandra Burke and Lewis.
The single also marks a reunion of sorts, with both Williams and his former Take That bandmates taking part, although it is not known whether their parts will be recorded together.
Williams said: “I'm very honoured to be asked to contribute to the single. We can all do something to help the people of Haiti - and I urge everyone to do what they can.”
They join Mariah Carey, Miley Cyrus, Michael Buble, James Morrison and Mika on a cover version of REM's Everybody Hurts, currently being recorded in Los Angeles.
Fifty per cent of proceeds from the single will go to Helping Haiti, a fund set up by The Sun , and the rest to the Disasters Emergency Committee.


The single comes after a flurry of celebrity support for the victims of the January 12 earthquake that killed an estimated 200,000 people and left around 1.5 million homeless in and around Haiti’s capital, Port-au-Prince.


Last Friday’s Hope for Haiti Now telethon hosted by MTV, and broadcast across 60 networks, saw the likes of Rihanna, Jay-Z, Coldplay, Bono, Madonna, Beyonce, Bruce Springsteen, Alicia Keys, Justin Timberlake and Stevie Wonder performing during a live link-up between London, New York, Los Angeles and Haiti.


Brad Pitt, Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, Clint Eastwood, Halle Berry, Jon Stewart, Nicole Kidman, Samuel L. Jackson and Will Smith answered the phones, while George Clooney - who also presented the event - Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, Leonardo DiCaprio and Sandra Bullock all pledged $1 million to help the devastated Caribbean nation. The supermodel Gisele Bundchen gave $1.5 million.

Look probably Robbie Williams to crown his comeback with a number one album as Reality Killed The Video is on course to top the charts.
The album is outselling all comers according to midweek chart positions, having sold more than 85,000 copies during its first day.

If it stays the course until the weekend it will mean each of Williams's eight studio albums has been to number one and would be his ninth chart topper in total.
The album has already topped the iTunes chart in 16 countries across Europe.
Reality ... is the singer's first new album for three years and follows the poorly received Rudebox. He releases a new single You Know Me on December 7.

Robbie Willams working with Take Thatand he's talks babies and confirms


Robbie Williams' life looks like is moving into exciting places – with babies on the cards and that much longed for Take That reunion closer than ever. The 35 year old singer told Jonathan Ross he's blissfully glad with his half American, half Turkish girlfriend Ayda Field, and the group could be ready to start a family in the next few years. "She's actually broody, and I'm getting there," said Robbie, in scenes to be shown on Friday Night With Jonathan Ross, this week on BBC One. He added: "I thought I was going to be a bachelor, then I was introduced to Ayda and things just changed. She's a wonderful person and I'm in love." Robbie also showed off his Take That tattoo as he revealed he's working with his former bandmates again. When asked if he would be performing and recording with his former group, he replied: "We've got together, done bits and bobs. I can't say much, but yes, I hope so." The singer also addressed concerns over his wide eyed appearance on X Factor, when he performed his new single Bodies. "The doors got stuck, I thought what are the words... I get incredibly nervous... it wasn't drugs or drink, just deer in the headlights." I've always been very nervous... You don’t know what's going on in my head. It's traumatic, actually scary."

Robbie Williams: Hits Back Over MTV No Show


ROBBIE WILLIAMS and MTV bosses are locked in a war of words over the star's no show at the forthcoming European Music Awards.
The singer former Take That was due to perform at the ceremony in Berlin, Germany on 5 November (09), following his current comeback, but pulled out of the event, citing "scheduling conflicts". MTV insiders claim Williams was not due to perform anywhere else and the cancellation came amid health and safety fears over his extravagant stage set.But the Angels star has hit back, insisting his show was "compromised" by budget cuts at the music network. An MTV source tells Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper, "Every star is treated the same and has to work to the same parameters. Robbie is no different. But his reps, for some reason, said nearly everything wasn't up to scratch. His no show is costing us a lot of money. We tried to be accommodating, but they walked away with a week to go. It's caused mayhem."But a spokesperson for Williams says, "The truth is MTV and the European Music Awards are victims of big budget cuts and Robbie's performance was being compromised so it was decided he wouldn't play. He actually wanted to. It is a real shame MTV could not make this happen. He performed a free concert in Berlin last week to 15,000 people. And rumour has it Eminem has pulled out of the Awards for the same reason."
