Robbie Williams!

Nope. Happy with what I said and stand by it 100%. Non lethal cancer? Yes please. No guilt here.

[russycarps]

No he isn't. Pol Pot was a disgusting human being. Stalin was a disgusting human being. RW is an overrated performer who has struck it lucky.

For the very many people who lost people close to them of the cancer, it's not even worth a throwaway line.

Even by your low low standards, that's going a bit too far.

Considering the crowds for Amy Winehouse and Lily Allen over the last few years, the Pyramid Stage would be rammed, 80k+ for Robbie Williams. I like him actually, wouldnt really listen to him or anything but hes harmless.

If we start talking about Kanye West, well now, thats a different story.

[Wooderson]

the nals wet dream is to be the filling in a Kanye West/Chris Martin sandwich

[It doesn't get any better]

So long as you don't take him seriously I think RW would be a good laugh and get a great crowd behind him

He obviously attracts a lot of passioned comment, I've already today learned the expressions "Cockfarmer", Cockcobbler" and "Do a Kylie" - I'm always amazed what I learn on here

If he plays I'll certainly see him for a laugh - then I hope to finish off the festival with a massive set from the Chemical Brothers

Come on!!!!

Robbie is an entertainer, he appears to be a very charismatic performer who is able to get the crowd going in (dare I say it) a similar fashion to Freddie Mercury.

Absolute nonsense.

I've not had time to read through all the comments so sorry if this has already been mentioned: I saw that Ian Wright hosted show on Channel 5 last night and two guys who blagged their way into the Brits and met Robbie (photo proof) said he left after 20 mins with his gf. He was not drinking alcohol because he is tee total. So how you met him and had this conversation with him when he was drunk is a complete mystery to me.............

[russycarps]

Presumably you've never had to clear the dihhorea off the floor when someone you care for craps everywhere as result of the chemo.

[The Nal]

Absolute nonsense.

[Midnight Man]

Considering the amount of chairs , Sunday Papers , Champagne Bottles , Canapes , Rugs and

County Wear on show recently I reckon they should stick Desert Orchid on stage

[sifi]

guess what, bad things happen evey day.

Would it have been acceptable for me to say "I hope he gets run over and breaks his legs"? Or might that offend someone who knows someone who got run over?

Get a grip of yourself.

"I'm as serious as cancer when I say rhythm is a dancer"

[scaryclaireyfairy]

why is everyone getting sand in their knickers over an unsubstantiated rumour that amounts to a man in the pub story? it might well be true, but i'd like to see the op's photos of the evening to add some weight.

though that might slow down a good bunfight on what's bound to be a slow weekend.

carry on!

I've not lost my grip. I'm calmly and rationally demonstrating to you the reality of such an illness. And showing you what you are wishing on someone - for no other reason that you don't like that person's music.

I think it's you who hasn't got a grip. What you should have posted is "I'd rather he didn't play".

See?

[mozzy]

good grief. This has to be some kind of a sick joke, right?

Why on earth would this monumental cockcobbler be anywhere near this festival?

Hopefully God sees fit to "do a Kylie" on him between now and june.

He is a disgusting human being.

[Langdale Wolf]

You reaction to is laughably over the top. Guess what, I dont actually have the power to inflict cancer on someone.

You avoided answering my question too.

Why is cancer the special taboo that we can never mention?

I dislike his personality more than I dislike his music by the way.
