Robbie Williams

Robbie Williams has today (6th Nov) released the video for his track ‘Pretty Face’. Inspired by the groundbreaking 90s show ‘The Word’, the film is directed by Charlie Lightening and sees Robbie in his trademark red tracksuit performing on the iconic late-night Channel 4 TV programme.

Robbie says, “This is my ‘DeLorean Moment’ back to 1995 .. The Word was the late-night gateway to so many – Nirvana, Oasis, Happy Mondays… If BRITPOP is the album I would have made, then THIS would have been the TV show…. now a (virtual) reality”.

To coincide with the release of ‘BRITPOP’ on 6th February 2026, Robbie will perform at intimate venues in Glasgow, Liverpool, London and Wolverhampton as part of the ‘Long 90’s Tour’. At these shows he will play his debut album, ‘Life Thru A Lens’, and his most recent, ‘BRITPOP’, in full – making it a once-in-a-lifetime event for fans.
