What a week it has been for Robbie Williams!
Not only has the former member of Take That won a BRITs Icon Award, he has also seen his current album 'The Heavy Entertainment Show' shoot straight to the top of the charts, breaking records on its way.

'The Heavy Entertainment Show' is Robbie's 12th UK solo number one, making him the most successful UK solo artist EVER. That's one album ahead of the late David Bowie, who had 11!
It also puts him in second place behind The Beatles for No.1 studio albums (he has ten, whilst The Beatles have 11).
We're so thrilled for Robbie – what an incredible achievement for an ex-boyband member, who had the courage to go solo and proved his critics wrong!
Speaking about the hitting the top spot again, Robbie said, "I’m chuffed that this album is number one and I’m humbled by these amazing statistics and facts. Thank you to the wonderful, wonderful team at Sony."
He went on to say he hoped his fans enjoy the album as much as he enjoyed making it, and he can't wait for his tour next year.
You can buy tickets to see Robbie in concert from Magic Radio Tickets.
We cannot wait!
