In a recent interview, the eminent British singer Robbie Williams spoke frankly about his tattoos, his attitude to fame and the composition of Party Like a Russian.
The conversation with journalists began with an innocent question about tattoos, and they have a lot of them from the former vocalist Take That. The actor showed a fresh tattoo that adorned his muscular forearm and admitted that his wife, actress Aida Field, could not stand tattoos. On the body of the singer's wife there is not a single tattoo, and for the last "work of art" he strongly scolded her husband:
"We fought for at least four hours! If we talk about the previous tattoos, then each of them has its own background. I have the name of the collective in which I spoke, the symbol of my city, the name of my daughter ... "
Asked about his wife, Mr. Williams replied that she was more of a partner than a muse:
"She is a very ambitious woman. We share common values and a similar view of life. We love glamor, parties, fun. "
According to the famous singer, whom Elton John himself called only "Frank Sinatra of the XXI century", his perception of love changed over the years:
"When you are 20 years old, propaganda and public opinion are trying to impose some tendencies on you. You, the young, are influenced by films, songs. This makes one feel very unhappy. Now I know what true love is, and my children help me in this. When I look at them, I realize: if one of us makes a mistake, I or they, we will still love each other! Yes, love is a special bond, it's in our blood. "
Party Like a Russian - it's just a joke!
Journalists asked if Robbie Williams had friends in Russia. And that, in fact, pushed him to create a composition Party Like a Russian.
The actor admitted that among his friends there are no Russians and in general he is a social phobic:
"I have a certain environment with whom I contact on the job, they are nice and nice people. Still there are those whom I love, but with friends - it did not work out. I like to spend all my free time with my children and my wife. And this song turned out spontaneously. One day I woke up, went to the studio and thought: "I need to write a song about Russia!". I remember that we spent a lot of time on that day - had fun. I liked what happened. But at some point I felt uneasy - what if the Russians do not like what I did? People have different sense of humor. I did not mock the Russians, we did not have to either anger or offend the population of a huge country. We just made a great song. "
Asked whether Robbie Williams supports the relationship with his childhood friends, he replied:
"To me very early came popularity. You know, this can be compared to the fact that someone flew into space, went back and told his acquaintances upon returning to Earth. Nobody understands how to build a relationship with an astronaut. Believe me, that for others I'm a wildly strange type, and they are for me. We do not have common themes. I took seriously everything that was associated with friendship in my youth, but this feeling was gone. I grieved about it, but there's nothing to be done. Since then, I no longer have friends. "
At the end of the conversation, the artist made an unexpected confession. He said that he burned out in 1992, he compared his condition with that, as if he was sitting inside the oven, but nobody had been burning it for a hundred years, and it gives heat only thanks to resin and exhaust:
"I continue to study and it seems to me that I still have the potential. My life is worth a lot and I appreciate it. I like everything that I have - cars, my gigantic house, my family. Yes, after the appearance of children, I had to start working again, and this is with my state of health! But I'm not complaining, I feel that I have found a second wind. "Read also
