Robbie Williams news from month: September, 2007

Kylie Minogue is set for a blast from the past. And the lucky man in question? Robbie Williams.

Rob and Kylie are apparently in talks to arrange a dazzling comeback performance for next year’s Brit awards. Britain’s The Sun revealed that organizers are hoping to score a double whammy with the duo, who recorded the hit “Kids” together in 2000.

The idea is said to be that Robbie will join Kylie onstage by rising up from a coffin to symbolize his resurrection from the dead. Metaphorical pop-related dead, that is.

Confirmed bachelor Robbie Williams plans to give up his luxury US lifestyle for a short time and return to the UK this Christmas. It’s all to help out his very close friend Jonathan Wilkes (surprise) who is staging ‘Hamlet’ at the Old Vic and would… sorry, who is staging Cinderella at the Regent Theatre in Stoke and would appreciate any spare dignity Robbie has to offer.

Be still my beating heart, it doesn’t end there! TV leviathans Ant and Dec may also help out by appearing in the show.

“Robbie is not busy at the moment, so you never know – he might come along this year,” said Jonathan, like a child looking out of the window for Santa on Christmas Eve, “We might get a couple of Geordies along, too.”

Jonathan can do no wrong in Robbie’s eyes, so the smuggest man in showbiz may be treading the boards in the Potteries dressed as a ‘laydee’ and simpering in an even more exaggerated manner than usual. It’s lovely to see the ex-flatmates are still such good friends. Why, Robbie even has the numbers 10 and 23 tattooed on his wrist, the numbers which correspond in the alphabet to ‘J’ and ‘W’.

Such good friends. Maybe it’s not only Cinderella who’ll be visiting the ball. (holymoly.co.uk)

50 Cent has reportedly said that he would love to duet with Robbie Williams.

The rapper said the pop star was supposed to make a guest appearance on his forthcoming album ‘Curtis’, but their busy schedules made it impossible.

According to Dotmusic, 50 Cent said he’s still very keen to duet with the ex-Take That frontman, and would seize the opportunity if it arose, reports Loaded.

50 Cent’s new album is due out tomorrow (September 11). He might miss the chance to duet with Williams if he retires from music, as he said he would if his new album sells fewer copies than Kanye West’s ‘Graduation’, also due out tomorrow. (nme.com)

Singer Jon Bon Jovi has launched a scathing attack at British rockers Oasis and pop star Robbie Williams – insisting their music is so bad they “couldn’t fill a bar”.

The Livin’ On A Prayer hitmaker also hits out at troubled Babyshambles frontman Pete Doherty and pokes fun at soccer ace David Beckham in the new issue of Glamour magazine. He says of Williams: “That guy? He couldn’t fill a bar. He couldn’t even sell 500 tickets.
