Are you a Robbie fan or new to his music (it's great!). Let me know below, and click through to the full episode with Jon Ronson about the Debutante who got involved in a cult that was linked to the Oklahoma City Bombing. ruclips.net/video/VasuLLZxqYc/видео.html
I’m a fan of no one as I don’t put anyone on a pedastool and there is a great difference between a fan and appreciation. And , it is the latter that I am attuned to and yes, I appreciate Robbie 😊 same as I appreciate you Andrew 🥰
So refreshing to hear that not all famous people are narcissistic! I met my favourite author David Sedaris getting my book signed and he was just as kind and lovely as I hoped he would be. I was really nervous to meet him but my friend didn’t know him from Adam so that kept me kind of calm.
Absolutely agree, David Sedaris is the nicest bloke and he does book signings in little bookshops so it's really possible to meet him. I once saw a chalkboard sign saying 'Meet David Sedaris'. He is my husband's all-time favourite writer so I went to get tickets - they were only £2 each. I couldn't believe my luck and my husband was in shock. We went to meet him and it was like the grown-up version of meeting Santa Claus. He was so so kind to everyone and wrote really cute personal messages in each book. His talk was so funny!
David and Amy Sedaris are both lovely people. David is a shy funny man and Amy is hysterically, outrageously funny woman. It’s interesting seeing that dynamic. Of course we can’t forget about their brother who speaks about himself in the third person, The Rooster! 😂
Robbie Williams is amazing. We are in the southern US. We were in the UK around 2000 and my main mission was to find his Millennium CD. No regrets. Still love it.
That was a nice little chat about Robbie & George. Good to hear they are both very nice people. I love how Robbie pranked you Andrew. That was hilarious 🤣 I hope you’d had a few drinks by then at least 😂
This American adores Robbie Williams and has for years! I'm so delighted he's now happily married with kids. He deserves nachas! [Andrew will translate nachas].
Robbie Williams.... I went mad over him after hearing him sing with Queen. Amazing 😍 He's also in one of my favorite movies DeLovely singing the title song. Thanks for this 😊❤️ Love from Texas y'all ❤️
So lovely to hear you laugh so much instead of gasping OMG! When your interviewee is regaling you with details about the cult they’ve managed to leave! A nice little change Andrew!
Hey Andrew. Love your studio set up.! It's much much much better than you had previously. All that, and a collared shirt, and socially distanced! 😊❤ Now i get to listen....will the joys never end! X
I'm a huge fan of Robbie Williams. Fantastic singer and fantastic entertainer. I have all his CD on my Mac in a favourite folder and play it almost daily. To hear that he (on top of being a great artist) also is an incredibly nice guy is an extra bonus.
I have just stumbled across your channel. I am at work, alone in a shop with noooooo customers. The sun is shining, there's a warm summer breeze blowing in and I have found the patience to listen to and watch a video from the beginning to its end. You are a lovely interviewer! Very calm, allowing your guests to speak without interrupting them and you engage so well with the person you're speaking to. What a pleasure to watch and listen to 😊
I'm always blown away when Americans say they don't know Take That. In Germany back in the day they were HUGE. Way bigger than what came after... Backstreet Boys, NSync etc...
Robbie is so popular, bcz he is one of the stars, that "everybody" would like to be friends with,go to the bar with aso. As if the fame hasn't weirded him up.. I looove story about the hand job, he told on Graham Norton.. :D
He was super famous in Mexico back in the day…like you said, just like Madonna… but when I moved from Mexico to the US 13 years ago never heard of him…I wondered why😮
You turned me on to Robbie's music, Andrew. I absolutely love his stuff! I was listening to you and Jon here and then it just ended too short. Looking forward to more of this interview tomorrow then.👍👍
So fun to hear the banter between Andrew and Jon.I always wonder when Jon will be booked on the right acting gig that will highlight his quirkiness and talent. Pleasurably refreshing to hear the creative positivity of this discussion.
@@Siegbert85 yeah we loved them in the 90s. Not sure why they didn't peak in the US, other than their song "back for good" which charted there. I think the US is a bigger and harder market to break into.
As an American he is my favorite and I idolize Robbie I even own and read his book only the 2nd/3rd biography I ever finished reading. 1st not required by school.
I think your as valid as it gets Andrew Gold, your the journalist of the future..tackling these very sticky world organizations that do real human harm..these people are horrible..you call them out 😁😁😁
I can remember seeing Robbie at Glastonbury 1995 as he was visibly letting his hair down after take that. People forget now that to see a goody boy band pin up to someone wearing Adidas trakky tops and partying up with the likes of Oasis
Celebrities love to come to Canada because we give them space, to do otherwise would be rude. Part of the reason that Megan & Harry came here first but the British media followed
Love your channel! I wouldn't think you'd be nervous with public speaking. I guess it's b/c you do youtube and journalism. I'd be nervous! Anyway, I had to laugh when you talked about the chorus repeating you "oh" and "ah"! I can picture it like I'm there! I gasped, too, at the w/c part! I'm from the US, so idk Robbie Williams. I'll have to check him out!
I’d love to see you investigate strange and unusual things , places and people , cults , religions etc but on your own Netflix series where you travel around the world to explore things ( I know that basically sounds like a Louis Theroux show ) but you could team up with him too, I imagine you’d both get on really well together
@@AndrewGold1 I’m gonna make it my mission to get you on his Spotify podcast! 😆 Im a bit irked at the moment as I was listening to you talk with Shaun Atwood ( I think?) the other night about ITV / Saville etc and how difficult it is to even get a foot in the door with most mainstream corporations when you’re honest and above board. It really pisses me off how independent creators like yourself work really bloody hard to create, produce and promote your own content about real life injustices ( that go on right under our noses, hidden in plain sight!) Only to get slapped with silly censorship restrictions and penalised financially for so much as talking about them, or worse, for allowing victims of such injustices to speak freely. Yet the likes of ITV & BBC can lie, Cheat , cover up and protect the sordid secrets of their highest earners. I imagine it must be such a weird incongruous relationship that you have with YT when the very platform that you depend upon to get your content out there is the same one that holds you back in so many ways whilst allowing ITV, GB News BBC etc to run with whatever story they like ? Anyway rant over 🤣 So if i can help you to stick two fingers up in anyway to any of them please feel free to let me know 😆👍
This is the second video I've seen of yours about Robbie Williams. And I misread it at first-I thought the ampersand was a dash and you were about to tell the truth about Robbie Williams as told by George Clooney lol But seriously, the last video you had interviewing him, I was somewhat worried when he was talking about his addictive personality, even though he didn't take drugs anymore. I just thought he could try taking vitamins instead-they have no side effects and personally when I take them all seperately, I sometimes imagine they are heavier substances than they are lol By the way, one of my favorite songs by Robbie Williams is "Party Like a Russian." And just so you know, I tune in to you a lot (on the lighter topics) because you're very similar looking to my younger brother. It's really uncanny.
My Robbie Williams nostalgia story ..that you didnt ask for! I remember turning 10 in ‘95, my Dad and step mum ushered me into the kitchen with my eyes closed and hands held out in front of me, giddy with anticipation as they excitedly broke the news, “ now here’s your big surprise” I opened my eyes and in my hands lay an envelope … inside it were tickets to see Take That at the M.E.N arena in Manchester ( Nobody else tour I think?) and secretly I was mortified cos Take that were not cool by that point when I was at school .. honestly my first thought was ‘great I’m gonna get my head kicked in at school if anyone finds out about this 😂’ I suspected that my ‘gift’ had more to do with my step mum harbouring a mid-life crisis crush on Gaza B than anything else as I’d never so much as uttered a word about TT prior to this, but as an adult myself now with kids of my own, I really do appreciate the time, money and effort taken to do something nice for me .. bless them 😆 Robbie was pictured on the front of the tickets ( alongside all the other guys in blue suits against a red background .. and Lulu the singer if my memory serves me correctly?? So random 😂) but alas…. Robbie ‘Bastard’ Williams ( JK sorry! 🤣) must have upped and left by August 1995 cos he WASN’T at the show.. ‘how rude of him’, i thought in my 10yr old tween brain .. ‘did he not realise this was my big 10th birthday surprise present?’ …In reality he was probably far too busy snorting coke off of Kate Moss’ arse crack at Glastonbury an’ avin’ it large with Liam & Noel on the main stage..to be arsed about dancing around with the other 4, singing Barry Manilow covers (for screaming psychotic teenagers) but what did I know, I was only a wee nipper! . I came away from that show the biggest ( in secret of course 🤫 ) Take that fan ever ! I would lovingly chant my nightly, hormone fuelled incantations to Mark Owens face from inside the show program .. religiously ..in the hope he would one day become aware of my existence and decide to propose to me ( again I must stress, this was all performed with the upmost secrecy !!) So I’m now around 12 -13 yrs and it’s around the time Angels / let me entertain u came out and Robbie was all the rage, boys sang ‘Let me entertain you ‘ whilst stood on the tables in the science lab at the school Xmas party in a sugar fuelled, crazed act of rebellion. Girls swooned over angels and wanted to know who he was dating .. he was cool, like ‘sing ‘Millennium’ in a gold ladies dress on TOTP ( in the 90’s!!! 😱) cos he JDGAF cool ! And not just amongst kids but parents too . I remember making Robbies next album ‘disappear’ cos I didn’t want to have to hand it back to my Parents who bought it for themselves . My darker brooding phases were spent hauled up in my bedroom with the curtains closed, spitting out the lyrics to Karma Killer 🤣🤣 all good Fun . Then my next memories of him were when he pulled off his own skin in a music video and gyrated around on a dance floor with Kylie in hot pants and before I knew it I was all grown up . Jesus Christ .. upon reading This back i probably should have written a creepy pasta instead 🤣🤣 Love u Robbie 💙😀
Hey Andrew, Jon’s right, the ‘words of inspiration’ in Robbie’s pre-gig huddle come from a different person who is put in the spot each night, and are repeated by the group. His ‘vloggies’ often show this. Obviously the crew and regular guests know how the ritual works, newbies are often taken aback. 😂
Oh you're kidding! I didn't know that, but it's cleared up a lot, thank you Kathy. Rob is such a lovely, lovely bloke, we spoke on a video chat just the other day. I feel very lucky to have him in my life :)
@@dondevice8182 I did, and it tanked the video! I took it out again. No-brainers may seem like, well...no-brainers; but then everyone would have a successful youtube channel! :)
I would be ecstatic if I met Andrew Gold. I actually bragged to my husband when Andrew answered my comment on his video. I realize that the comment probably came from his Editor Fiancee. However an American Girl can always dream haha. My husband asked who Andrew Gold was. I said he's that British Journalist who busted the Exorcist on a Documentary we watched. I think most Americans think Andrew Gold is a British Reporter who has a RUclips channel.
@@AndrewGold1 WOW that's awesome that you do it yourself on comments. I'll be showing my husband this comment tonight. He'll get a kick out of it !! Especially since we hosted a couple from Great Britain on an Arizona Desert Rover adventure. We will be vacationing (Rover Wheeling) on the couples turf soon. BTW love this channel
That was lovely. Robbie's just a musical sensation, i, too, am a huge fan. It's that naughty face in sooo many videos that's a pull for the girls, im sure. Also, your sign has changed. 'The edge' is now thick font on thin font on the 'on'. If you're into change, would you consider making 'on the' in thick font and 'edge' in thin font? As in, the edge is thin, scary, uncertain. When someone says ' im on the edge' i dont think oh, a nice big thick, secure place, i think the a thin precipice before taking a chance. Ok...ill bugger the f off now. 😊
He will always be well thought of in SE Asia ... he has great catalog of number 1hits.. shes the one .. better man ..rock dj .supreme ... angels.... let me entertain you.... millennium ...
Andrew you are looking cool ❤ love you 😊 don’t panic, realistically too old 😬 for you anyway 😂 and lovely girlfriend fiancé for you of course. I do love what you do and I love your beautiful soul , such a sweet heart ❤ thanks Andrew
I had the pleasure of meeting Sir Anthony Hopkins. What a lovely man. One day, just walking down down a Chelsea road, I looked behind me, to ensure I wasn't in anyone's way. I stared and said " oh no, if I'd known Hannabel Lecter was waiking behind me. I'd have jumped aside". Then I blushed, thinking everybody probably said that. He was lsughing out loud and stayed talking to me for quite some time. He is the perfect British gentleman. On the downside, I've met a number of celebrities who think they are Godlier than God. It was in my line of work, preparing a team to organise major fundraising events for big Charities. The worst was Dirk Benedict. This was long after the A-team show had finished, but he was still famous for that. We picked him up at the airport. His Manager had brought along her toyboy. What she hadn't told me was that Dirk was newly out of his endless stints in rehab. The next 3 days were a nightmare, so I was glad our contract with him would end when the national telethon finished at 6pm. He disappeared twice. We tracked him down to hotels, where he spent the night with women. At 6.30pm, I had the driver arrive to take the drama diva manager, her toyboy, who kept trying to get me alone, and a somewhat dopey actor, to the airport. I returned to our offices, where everybody was drinking brandy, to settle their minds. I joined them before taking a taxi home.
Thankyou for responding ! I respect you so much ! You are amazing for people that don't have a voice ! And such a beautiful energy like having hot soup on a Winter's night with someone close ! Thankyou ! Xo 💜
Stop Andrew about North Americans not knowing things about the UK and your celebrities. I know who Robbie Williams is. I grew up on MTV and in the 90's.
_Typical American female here._ I think I heard the name Robbie Williams (TBH I _just_ had to go bk to remember his last name) when *Nikki Glaser* (comedian) was doing her act and told us a funny about when she was on Dancing With The Stars w/him + hooked up… *Edit:* Oop wrong guy. It was another “some guy” named *Bobby Bones.* Idk who Robbie Williams is then. Like I said. _Typical American_ but why don’t we know who he is?! P.S. But I do know Andrew Gold is a journalist _and_ podcaster. 😉
That's so funny... he used to be part of an early 90s boy band called Take That. Back in the day they were HUGE... at least here in Germany. Girls took their lifes when they split up, it was crazy. Like, Backstreet Boys, NSync etc had nothing on them.
I adore the Scots. Even the bastardized Mel Gibson version of Scotland is awesome even though it was completely historically inaccurate and he's a Jew hater. They MADE him.
Since when is telling uninteresting stories to show how nice they are only shows how ignorant he is about people who are called "Stars", by another group of ignorant people. Using the title, "The Truth..." is also a bit stupid, idinít? How many intelligent people have you had on your show, three, or less?

Would love to see David Sedaris and Robbie together

Robbie Williams is amazing. We are in the southern US. We were in the UK around 2000 and my main mission was to find his Millennium CD. No regrets. Still love it.
Hello from Serbia, I am a Robbie fan, indeed. I adore a story about a made, that Robbie talk about on Graham Norton show.Hillarious!
That was a nice little chat about Robbie & George. Good to hear they are both very nice people.
I love how Robbie pranked you Andrew. That was hilarious 🤣 I hope you’d had a few drinks by then at least 😂
Lots of people know who Robbie Williams is in the US. He had some pretty big songs back in the early 2000s out here.
Robbie Williams was pretty well known in Canada when he went solo. I was a huge fan in those days!
This American adores Robbie Williams and has for years! I'm so delighted he's now happily married with kids. He deserves nachas! [Andrew will translate nachas].
Lovely conversation guys. X
Robbie Williams.... I went mad over him after hearing him sing with Queen. Amazing 😍 He's also in one of my favorite movies DeLovely singing the title song. Thanks for this 😊❤️
Love from Texas y'all ❤️
From the US and love Robbie! He was big for a minute back in the early 2000s with Angels and Rock DJ.
Seven UK #1's
So lovely to hear you laugh so much instead of gasping OMG! When your interviewee is regaling you with details about the cult they’ve managed to leave! A nice little change Andrew!
Hey Andrew. Love your studio set up.! It's much much much better than you had previously. All that, and a collared shirt, and socially distanced! 😊❤ Now i get to listen....will the joys never end! X
Fantastic interview guest ! More interviews with writers would be great! What about Ben Oakrie poet and writer wrote ' the famished road'
I'm a huge fan of Robbie Williams. Fantastic singer and fantastic entertainer. I have all his CD on my Mac in a favourite folder and play it almost daily. To hear that he (on top of being a great artist) also is an incredibly nice guy is an extra bonus.
So you own a Mac...snob.....I'm just ribbing you...couldn't resist
@@randykirkey3843 If you love music you have a Mac. 😀
You are so sad...😂
Who's Robbie Williams? Is he a youtuber?
I have just stumbled across your channel. I am at work, alone in a shop with noooooo customers. The sun is shining, there's a warm summer breeze blowing in and I have found the patience to listen to and watch a video from the beginning to its end. You are a lovely interviewer! Very calm, allowing your guests to speak without interrupting them and you engage so well with the person you're speaking to. What a pleasure to watch and listen to 😊
I'm always blown away when Americans say they don't know Take That. In Germany back in the day they were HUGE. Way bigger than what came after... Backstreet Boys, NSync etc...
Oh! I am sooo glad! I thought this was about some dark scientology secret or stuff. I love love love Robbie! 😅
Robbie is so popular, bcz he is one of the stars, that "everybody" would like to be friends with,go to the bar with aso. As if the fame hasn't weirded him up.. I looove story about the hand job, he told on Graham Norton.. :D
Listening to this just confirmed my belief of, how he actually is.. NICE WORK, ROBBIES MOM..!!
He was super famous in Mexico back in the day…like you said, just like Madonna… but when I moved from Mexico to the US 13 years ago never heard of him…I wondered why😮
You should have gone out onto the stage and say ‘ But I love Im’ 😂
You turned me on to Robbie's music, Andrew. I absolutely love his stuff!
I was listening to you and Jon here and then it just ended too short.
Looking forward to more of this interview tomorrow then.👍👍
See you tomorrow then! :D
I am such a Jon Ronson fan: he's intelligent, witty, self deprecating and an astute observer of life. Thanks for having him on your show.
So am I! hope you enjoy the full episode tomorrow! :)
So fun to hear the banter between Andrew and Jon.I always wonder when Jon will be booked on the right acting gig that will highlight his quirkiness and talent. Pleasurably refreshing to hear the creative positivity of this discussion.
I’m American and I love me some Robbie Williams, “No Regrets” is my jam!!!
Live at knebworth is amazing, might be on here 😊
@@groovychick39 yeah that is fantastic
The Beatles Shea Stadium Concert held around 55,600 people.
Im Canadian and know Robbie from Take That and of course his solo career. My sister was obsessed with Take That in highschool and still is. Lol
Oh, they were a thing in Canada but not the US? That's so weird
@@Siegbert85 yeah we loved them in the 90s. Not sure why they didn't peak in the US, other than their song "back for good" which charted there. I think the US is a bigger and harder market to break into.

I vaguely remember Robbie Williams also being huge in America during the early 2000s mentioned.
Oh I love Jon R!
I am a huge fan of Robbie Williams. I was lucky enough to get tickets for his show in Santiago de Chile a few years back. Best concert ever

@@dondevice8182 I did, and it tanked the video! I took it out again. No-brainers may seem like, well...no-brainers; but then everyone would have a successful youtube channel! :)
@@AndrewGold1 well, that’ll teach you to take advice from the likes of me, I suppose!
Perhaps at least a tittle under him from time to time?
Misleading title for this show.
You are way too good looking Andrew for people not to recognize you. Beware of meme look alikes….
Is that Andrew Partridge from my third favourite band of all time
XTC is your third fave?
Number 2 for me!
@@dondevice8182 Thanks for the reply.....yep third...after Pink Floyd and Alan Parsons Project...still pretty high on the list
Andrew beat Blue Oyster Cult out of fourth place.....tight race
Andrew.... Did you hear the News about Mike Rinder? If not please get in touch with Aaron.
I would be ecstatic if I met Andrew Gold. I actually bragged to my husband when Andrew answered my comment on his video. I realize that the comment probably came from his Editor Fiancee. However an American Girl can always dream haha. My husband asked who Andrew Gold was. I said he's that British Journalist who busted the Exorcist on a Documentary we watched. I think most Americans think Andrew Gold is a British Reporter who has a RUclips channel.
Nope the comments are from me! Juli just does the episode’s editing. Love to you and your husband !
@@AndrewGold1 WOW that's awesome that you do it yourself on comments. I'll be showing my husband this comment tonight. He'll get a kick out of it !! Especially since we hosted a couple from Great Britain on an Arizona Desert Rover adventure. We will be vacationing (Rover Wheeling) on the couples turf soon. BTW love this channel
Williams is not big in America, Canada, and Japan.

That was lovely. Robbie's just a musical sensation, i, too, am a huge fan. It's that naughty face in sooo many videos that's a pull for the girls, im sure. Also, your sign has changed. 'The edge' is now thick font on thin font on the 'on'. If you're into change, would you consider making 'on the' in thick font and 'edge' in thin font? As in, the edge is thin, scary, uncertain. When someone says ' im on the edge' i dont think oh, a nice big thick, secure place, i think the a thin precipice before taking a chance. Ok...ill bugger the f off now. 😊
I’m observing the diet here 😳👀🇫🇷 sacré bleu

He is a handsome guy. And yep comes across as lovely and down to Earth.
@@lorrainefryer doesn’t just come across as that, he IS all I said 🥰
@@Red-ns9ny Couldn’t agree more hun. 👍
Ha ha. That's so sad.
Is Robbie Williams a youtuber?
Didn't you watch the video??
Robbie’s popular in Australia
I had the pleasure of meeting Sir Anthony Hopkins. What a lovely man.
One day, just walking down down a Chelsea road, I looked behind me, to ensure I wasn't in anyone's way. I stared and said " oh no, if I'd known Hannabel Lecter was waiking behind me. I'd have jumped aside". Then I blushed, thinking everybody probably said that. He was lsughing out loud and stayed talking to me for quite some time. He is the perfect British gentleman.
On the downside, I've met a number of celebrities who think they are Godlier than God. It was in my line of work, preparing a team to organise major fundraising events for big Charities.
The worst was Dirk Benedict. This was long after the A-team show had finished, but he was still famous for that. We picked him up at the airport. His Manager had brought along her toyboy. What she hadn't told me was that Dirk was newly out of his endless stints in rehab. The next 3 days were a nightmare, so I was glad our contract with him would end when the national telethon finished at 6pm. He disappeared twice. We tracked him down to hotels, where he spent the night with women. At 6.30pm, I had the driver arrive to take the drama diva manager, her toyboy, who kept trying to get me alone, and a somewhat dopey actor, to the airport. I returned to our offices, where everybody was drinking brandy, to settle their minds. I joined them before taking a taxi home.
Careful with Gyllenhall, he has had quite a sketchy behavior with young women in a professional setting, look it up.
😂😂😂
I’m the English in France 😊
Is that a wig?
Would u do something with Robbie Williams ? My friend asked ,I said Andrew Gold! If I was twenty years younger ! In another reality 😂
Thankyou for responding ! I respect you so much ! You are amazing for people that don't have a voice ! And such a beautiful energy like having hot soup on a Winter's night with someone close ! Thankyou ! Xo 💜
Never heard of Robbie until the Graham show
Good place to start. :D
Now get Liam Gallagher LOL

Stop Andrew about North Americans not knowing things about the UK and your celebrities. I know who Robbie Williams is. I grew up on MTV and in the 90's.
In THEM: Adventures with Extremists Jon Ronson only seems to find far-right and religious extremists. Why is that?
_Typical American female here._ I think I heard the name Robbie Williams (TBH I _just_ had to go bk to remember his last name) when *Nikki Glaser* (comedian) was doing her act and told us a funny about when she was on Dancing With The Stars w/him + hooked up…
*Edit:* Oop wrong guy. It was another “some guy” named *Bobby Bones.* Idk who Robbie Williams is then. Like I said. _Typical American_ but why don’t we know who he is?! P.S. But I do know Andrew Gold is a journalist _and_ podcaster. 😉
That's so funny... he used to be part of an early 90s boy band called Take That. Back in the day they were HUGE... at least here in Germany. Girls took their lifes when they split up, it was crazy. Like, Backstreet Boys, NSync etc had nothing on them.
Andrew so handsome. Sorry, a compliment is nice. Why not?
I adore the Scots. Even the bastardized Mel Gibson version of Scotland is awesome even though it was completely historically inaccurate and he's a Jew hater. They MADE him.
Yo
I miss my world as a photographer sohhh much 😢❤
Since when is telling uninteresting stories to show how nice they are only shows how ignorant he is about people who are called "Stars",
by another group of ignorant people. Using the title, "The Truth..." is also a bit stupid, idinít? How many intelligent people have you had on
your show, three, or less?
Eh? Scottish!
You are correct. I was confusing him with Ryan Upchurch in the Keily Rodni case!
Pardon? What are you talking about?
I think this might not be the person you mean!
@@AndrewGold1 yeah I think she is confused
@@AndrewGold1 No, not the wrong person, just the wrong case. It was during the Keily Rodney case, the girl in Ca who went missing.
@@kathyotoole4608 I still can't find any connection. 🤔 Can you provide a link to a report?
I was a big take that fan but never liked Robbie. Too full of himself. Then he married an American and got worse 😂
Robbie Williams earns the respect
