Robbie Williams

Let him entertain you! Robbie Williams is a member of the pop group Take That but has found even greater commercial success as a solo artist. Williams rose to fame in the band's first run in the 1990s. After many disagreements with management and group members, Williams left the group in 1995 to launch his solo career. In 2010, it was announced he had rejoined Take That and that the group intended to release a new album in November 2010, which became the second fastest-selling album in UK chart history and the fastest-selling record of the century. In 2006, Williams entered the Guinness Book of World Records for selling 1.6 million tickets of his Close Encounters Tour in a single day. Williams has sold over 70 million records worldwide, which ranks him among the best-selling music artists worldwide. He is the best-selling British solo artist in the United Kingdom and the best selling non-Latino artist in Latin America. Six of his albums are among the top 100 biggest-selling albums in the UK. He has also been honored with seventeen Brit Awards—more than any other artist. In 2004, he was inducted into the UK Music Hall of Fame after being voted as the "Greatest Artist of the 1990s." In 2013, he released Swings Both Ways. Robbie Williams continues to tour the world.
