And Finally
Robbie Williams likes swearing, so fuck off
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 8 July 2011
Robbie Williams has responded to those who have criticised his sweary outbursts at recent Take That concerts.
With The Mirror running a not especially believable report that some Take That fans walked out of a London show earlier this week when he introduced himself as “Robbie Fucking Williams”, the Robster took to his blog to write the following: “I like swear words… I know they are frowned upon and [are] the refuge of the uneducated but so be it… fuck, fucking… can’t be beaten… ‘Allow me to re-introduce myself, my name is Robert ‘fucking’ Williams…’ You have no idea how good it feels to say that in front of 80 thousand people… it’s liberating and a statement of intent”.
But don’t worry, people, when Robbie says fucking he doesn’t mean fucking. “I’m not a fan of the literal meaning though”, he added. “I wouldn’t use them when actually referring to sex”.
