And how I spoke and considered then was more naive. I was a lot more resentful. I was indignant.”

ROBBIE WILLIAMS TELLS US A Extremely Uncomfortable Story WITH CHRIS ROCK AND JOHN CUSACK [9:23]

FITZY Sarah does a fantastic entertainment crack below. A handful of months in the past, she explained to us a story that you had been telling about Barbra Streisand. Wherever you ran into Barbara and you experienced no idea who she was. And she imagined you were a footballer. It was so funny. So you had no notion, so what was the minute all over again? Can you established it up for all people?

ROBBIE You’ve just you’ve just buried the direct and advised the story. The moments when you… surreal moments in your everyday living, like the most modern one that I had. I was on getaway with my wife and young children. And then a bunch of buddies of my wife joined us. And I was becoming released to all people at the bar. And this is Todd and Hey Todd. And this is, this is James. Hey, James. And this is Barbara. And I’m like, Alright, Barb, happy to satisfy you. Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. And then I sit down, and I realized that I am sat reverse Barbra Streisand. And she has no concept who I am. And certainly, I have just about every thought who she is. And my spouse commences talking about this charity soccer match that I’m doing. And she then proceeds to feel that I made use of to play for Manchester United, which was like, yeah, that’ll do. My wife was like, no, no, no, no, he’s a singer. And then she appeared at me to go, she go, Oh which is great.

WIPPA I would have considered there’d be a bigger likelihood she’d know who you ended up, than you’d know who she was.

ROBBIE No, no, no, no, no, she’s you know, she’s from a different time and location.

WIPPA Does that at any time transpire with anybody else Robbie?

ROBBIE Not that I can think… Oh yeah, there was this a person time where by I was with my mum at an Osborne’s occasion on New Year’s. She’d absent to the gifting suites, the gifting suites are a major matter. They just opened up and I was like, I will not want any cost-free tatts. But my mom loves totally free tatts. So I go upstairs, and I’m sort of waiting for my mom to show up up the stairs so we can depart. And my thoughts form of just drifts off and I am in the again of my mind talking to myself. And then there is certainly overall body seems strolling up the stairs. And I’m like, ah, person, male, strolling gentleman. Famous male. Oh, male, well-known person, Chris Rock. Oh, oh, you happen to be staring at Chris Rock now. You should not stare absent. Due to the fact you are in the popular club. And if he knows you, you won’t be able to be impolite, so just keep staring and enjoy this 1 out and say hello there. And by the time I got to that little bit, Chris went ‘What mom f*cker?’ like that. And like, he’s reared up at me like I’m staring him out and I wanted to fight. I did not, I just didn’t want to appear impolite. But in the process of not wanting to be impolite, I appeared rude. Reduce to two months afterwards, I’m at a U2 concert proper. And Chris Rock is there with John Cusack. John Cusack turns all over to me, and he waves in my path. And I’m imagining I am not in the famed club, he’s not waving at me. I am not waving again. So then he in fact waves once again but this time far more worriedly and I am like, nah mate I know what took place final time with your buddy. No way. 3rd time he kind of waves and then gets to be despondent with this bizarre search and turns again and I flip about to see who was waving to and I was stood next to a wall and he was truly waving at me and I ignored John Cusack. Yeah I just wronged myself in entrance of Chris Rock and John Cusack, so the message to John Cusack I’m really, seriously sorry, adore you mate.

ROBBIE WILLIAMS TALKS ABOUT FILMING HIS BIOPIC – “I’M Seeking TO Read through THIS As a result of YOUR EYES. I Don’t KNOW WHAT You are UPSET ABOUT” [7:13]

FITZY Hey Robbie, how’s the editing going with Much better Guy, the biopic? Is it going alright?

ROBBIE We did a lot of shooting down in Melbourne, performing with an Aussie cast, Aussie crew, Aussie director, felt at house. Tremendous weird, although, you know, mainly because it really is a biopic about your lifestyle and you might be in a makeup chair. And the human being next to you is taking part in your father and the man or woman up coming to them is participating in your mum, the person upcoming to them is playing your grandma. And then on a sort of mannequin’s head is how would Donald from Just take That wig from 1983. No joke was Jason Orange from choose that chin throughout next to me, and I’m just pondering things can’t get far more surreal than this second.

SARAH Did you distinct any of the plot? I signify, I say plot, I know it’s your lifestyle. But did you have to obvious bits with the relaxation of the boys from just take that?

ROBBIE it was more the pink bits that I experienced to phone up and ask if it was alright, ended up they happy with how they would be portrayed? Yeah. No, no, there was a tons of tense phone calls and phoning up people and sending scripts to men and women and go in this okay. And then then becoming upset, and me wondering, I am hoping to examine this by your eyes. I don’t know what you might be upset about. But, you know, the challenge is with the movie, I communicate and think in the way that I spoke and assumed when I was 17, 18, 19 and 20. And how I spoke and considered then was a lot more naive. I was more resentful. I was indignant. You know, but this is the issue. I are not able to be the only asshole in this film. So when I was bringing men and women up and likely, arrive on, just allow for me to portray you a tiny bit terribly. In any other case it is just me, and I’m not sitting down down for 90 minutes to view me be an asshole.

ROBBIE It can be my AFL mullet. Ought to I mature a mustache for the AFL?

WIPPA Yes. The mustache and mullet form of labored nicely together really don’t know it truly is a combination that you do frequently see in the AFL Robbie.

ROBBIE Well here is the factor, I introduced this up that that they are rocking mullets and mustaches, wholly unironically too. And like with no perception of irony about it, and I outlined this in an job interview and nobody’s faces transformed like, yeah, we realize what you’re saying. They were being just like, we never even have an understanding of what you happen to be on about.

FITZY I am so glad you have completed it for the AFL Grand Ultimate for the reason that I would say about about 60, 70% of rugby league gamers, and also AFL gamers which you’re doing at the AFL Grand Closing. These children just appreciate mullets now. My son experienced a mullet that turned into a rat’s tail. He is 9 many years of age now. He’s only just obtained rid of it. And he can hotwire a motor vehicle in 3 seconds it is wonderful.

ROBBIE Effectively, I am thoroughly onboard. And I shall be applauding my son as he grows his have mullet. I’ll operate on it prior to I get to the AFL. It’s possible there will be a Tosh to a Dennis Lilly design Tosh.

WIPPA Have you been to the AFL prior to?

ROBBIE No I have not been to. I have been to the grounds before. And basically, I played a little bit of footy with individuals that have performed AFL. This is what I assume about the AFL proper. There is a great deal of sports activities that bore me to death that I just can not get on board with at all. Instantly, AFL comes on Tv, I might say in 1989 on Channel 4 in the United kingdom. And I’m like, this is a little bit of me. And also what is a Geelong? There have been all of these names that were being just like wow, they do issues unusual down there. In any case, this is what I feel about AFL it has not stopped remaining an entertaining video game for me. It hasn’t stopped staying interesting from beginning to end. And I truly feel like it’s dramatically underserved as a activity, it ought to be like ought to be on the suggestion of everybody’s lips and it ought to be at minimum liked and adored as a great deal as rugby league or union is, especially in the Uk. And I want to be the gentleman that bring the activity the relaxation of world.

FITZY I’m using my two sons to the AFL Grand Ultimate and one of the significant factors is that you’re performing Robbie but we do, it is our variety one particular activity here. We adore it so much the suburban footy is just as excellent Robbie where you can park your vehicle in the floor you can conquer your horn when another person scores a target. I used to enjoy for the porter Langer Kaku divers we employed to perform versus the Noarlunga footwear. The Rinella wine flies we had the Flagstaff Hill Bush pigs. All right, so awful deeds is some of the ideal mascots you can expect to at any time see Robbie Williams.
