Robbie Williams on Sexuality Rumors: ‘You’ve Never Met Somebody That Wants to Be Gay as Much as Me’
Naman Ramachandran British pop star Robbie Williams got candid as he addressed the persistent speculation about his sexuality in an interview with The Guardian discussing his biopic “Better Man.” “I’ve done everything but suck a cock. Honestly, you’ve never met somebody that wants to be gay as much as me,” said Williams about his 2005 libel case against a tabloid that claimed he had engaged in “homosexual encounters.” He added, “You want to be an ally while at the same time protecting your own authenticity and your own life.” Reflecting on his early career performing at gay clubs with Take That, Williams recalled, “When I went into the gay world there was none of that [violence]. There was total acceptance and humour and gay abandon.
