Robbie Williams Laughs Off Womanizing & Gay Rumors
The Advocate chatted with Robbie Williams on his attempt to break America, his huge gay following, and whether his image as a big womanizer is a smoke screen for being gay. On the latter point, Williams laughed, “I think that’s funny. I mean, really, who cares? I know what’s going on in my life. That’s what matters. [The speculation] is absurd, actually. If I shagged as many women, men, and farm animals as people claim in the media, I’d be in the hospital. But it’s fine—speculate as much as you want, I say.”

Robbie Learns The Hard Way In LA
May 2, 2003 - Robbie Williams told The Toronto Sun recently that it took him a while to size up Los Angelenos who had an agenda. “I didn’t have my ‘di**head radar’ fixed when I came to the States,” said Williams. “I got it fixed for Europe and I can normally weed out, ‘Oh, you like me ’cause I’m famous,’ or ‘You like me ’cause I’ve got money’ or ‘You like me ’cause I could probably get you a job,’ in London. But it sort of broke on the flight to L.A. So I got stabbed in the back a few times. It sounds pretty harsh. It wasn’t really stabbed in the back, it was let down.”
