Robbie Williams Is Breaking Records!

Filed under: Anglophilia > Robbie Williams

He's a popular one!

In addition to setting a Guinness World Record for selling 1.6 million tickets in one day for his 2009 "Close Encounters" tour, British superstar Robbie Williams also set a world record yesterday by having the most screenings of a live concert in theaters!

The BBC's live show "Electric Proms" was broadcast simultaneously in venues all over the world in 23 countries.

Extra screenings are planned in the coming weeks for countries a bit further from Williams' native England including Australia and South Africa!

The world loves some Robbie — and so do we!

    Re: lilalo – "i cant understand why usa isnt that into him"
    Some of us are. The moment I first heard "Millennium" I was hooked, and "Rock DJ" has been my rock-out-in-the-car song forever now. He's quite underrated over here.

    Actually the USA have never been into Robbie Williams. I know I'm one of them. I don't get the facination with him. Never have been a big fan of his music.

    Re: wunderbarwoman – He is someone veeeeeery very famous in a place called Planet Earth….I know..It´s hard to understand that there´s some way of life outside the USA…but guess waht? There´s the whole fucking planet! And there…Robbie is very well known.

    he was totally back on form (watched it on BBC2 last night) - his normal twinkly eyed, cheeky chappy self :) )))

    ROBBIE WILLIAMS IS HOTT!



  15. 15

    Robbie is awesome!! LOVE HIM



  16. 16

    How much are they paying you to promote drug addict/alcoholic Robbie during his comeback attempt? He's a washed up no talent has-been.

    the only record this loser will ever break is "man who has taken the most miles of cock up the chute"

    I find it hard to believe he sold 1.6 million tickets in one day?! His tour wasn't that big!!! He didn't even play London and the US. Tell the brits to go &*^% themselves with their lousy singers! No wonder US chew him for few days and than spit him far far away!! Ha

    He should never have split up with Guy Chambers - those songs were legendary, his new stuff is not so good. He is lovely though, everyone loves him, he could be massive again, IF HE HAS SOME GOOD FREAKING SONGS!!!!!!!! FOR GODS SAKE!!!!!! Why do popstars risk their entire livelihood by putting out under-par songs? I'm not just talking about Robbie. Surely you can find a decent songwriter and have someone in your record company understand what a good song is????? Bodies sounds like an Ian Brown B-Side. Just get that William Orbit guy that writes Madonna's songs. DO IT ROBBIE AND RUB THAT STUPID GARY BARLOW'S FACE IN IT, HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAH

    Re: **Me**Luv**Gaga** – "He's a washed up no talent has-been."
    …says the person who "luvs" Lady GooGag. *snert* Yeah, because *you* have taste in music.



  21. 21

    Re: krazykat99 – why would he have to rub anything in Gary's face? Just cos Gary is a naturally good songwriter and Robbie isn't as good? That's blatantly obvious. But Robbie is a much better performer, so I don't think he's too worried about it.



  22. 22

    PEREZ remember all the shit you wrote on this blog about him see you are a fool !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



  23. 23
