Just about everything pop star Robbie Williams says and does finds its way into print. Consequently, this unauthorised biography is packed with common knowledge: his drinking, his temper, his spectacular highs and lows. Celebrity biographer Sean Smith devotes entire chapters to the people who have supported Williams since he started performing as a child: his mum, childhood friend Zoe Hammond and best mate Jonathan 'Jonty' Wilkes. But loads of detail about these 'ordinary people' fails to make them interesting. In spite of the cover promise of insider gossip, it turns out that Williams never had an affair with Kylie Minogue, Andrea Corr or Nicole Kidman. And although he claims to have slept with Geri Halliwell, she denies it.
