Robbie's frocky horror show


ROBBIE WILLIAMS appears to be wearing UMA THURMAN’s wig from Pulp Fiction for the video to his new single, She’s Madonna.

As you can see here, Robbie has opened his dressing-up box again and dolled himself up with a gang of LA’s finest drag queens.

The video for the track, co-written with the PET SHOP BOYS, has me baffled. It doesn’t feature MADONNA or any Madonna lookalikes.

In fact, the only link to Madge is that the promo’s Swedish director, Johan Renck, previously worked with her on the Hung Up video.

But then Rob’s vids have always been a bit Misunderstood.

He shot the wacky promo in Los Angeles during a break from his record-breaking world tour. I can reveal the success of his gigs means he WILL receive a nomination for Best Live Act Brit.

In the video Robbie cuts a strange figure in a black bobbed wig, tons of spooky eyeshadow and smeared red lipstick. The last time he smothered himself in this much slap was so he could Entertain Us – and he will certainly get a few laughs with this.

The vid features appearances from drag queen ALEXIS ARQUETTE, COURTENEY COX’s brother-in-law.

But I think Rob needs to take more lessons in dressing like a laydee. It isn’t convincing with his hairy chest and tattoos poking out of the low-cut dress. Thankfully he returns to vintage Rob in a JOHN TRAVOLTA-style Saturday Night Fever suit to throw some shapes, right. The track is one of the best – and easily the most catchy – from his Rudebox album and is out on March 19.

The video will be available to watch exclusively online from Friday, on bbc.co.uk/radio1 for free and to Inner Sanctum subscribers on robbiewilliams.com for 72 hours.

Yep...it was co-written with the Pet Shop Boys. They also produced the track. Here's a bit of the lyrix of it:

I love you baby
but face it she's Madonna
No man on earth
could say that he don't want her
This look of love
says I'm leaving
you're frozen now
I've done the freezing
I'm walking out
Madonna's calling me

She's got to be
obscene to be believed
That's her routine
Not what she means to me
I found myself
by circumstance
across a room
where people dance
And quite by chance
she' danced right next me

Robbie's wikked no matta wot

IstenSzek said:

Well, I came to the conclusion that Robbie is the Gheist straight man alive!

He looks like Samantha from Sex and the City with dark hair...Not cute.

two of my friends are in the video.

MikeMatronik said:

Wow. I guess what everyone was saying was true about this upcoming video single.

I thought the whole gay drag thing was just some wildly conjured internet psychobabble.

Mara said:

NO...it was filmed in LA on Nov 22nd

it features
Jackie Beat
Momma
Alexis Arquette
Coco Peru
Sisters Tragedy Ann and Dixie Wrecked of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence
and a few other West Hollywood Drag Queens.

ehuffnsd, do you think Robbie is ghei?

I have the feeling that he's bi

ehuffnsd said:

Alright now. Tell it!

MikeMatronik said:

he has been known to fequrent bars in WeHo, and the American press leaves alone because he isn't an American celebrity.

I remember one time on cribs they showed his LA house and he had some friends from WeHo over watching the Sound of Music. Whether that was a show or just him dropping a hint to the few people who knew West Hollywood is gay is yet to be seen.

Mara said:

i think i made mention of it back in Nov when Trag and Dixie did the video.

I wondered how they would pull that off. A Madonna lookalike, male or female, seems to obivious. The drag queen thing sounds very funny!

It will generate the buzz that single needs.

Rudebox wasn't been has successfull as Intensive Care

ehuffnsd said:

Tragedy Ann is in it!? She is one of the nicest sisters ever

SupaFunkyOrgangrinderSexy said:

yup

MikeMatronik said:

Really? How did IC do on the charts? Rudebox went to #1 it's first week in the UK. "Lovelight" had its share of buzz, but it could've been stronger.

I don't think no one is "selling" like they used to. Kids think music is free now.

MikeMatronik said:

I never bought a Robbie album before but am familar with his music. When I heard PSB and a dance album, not to mention the low price on Amazon, I was very interested. I would say half the album is really good to great while half of it is horrible!

Mara said:

Intensive Care sold in the first few weeks that Rubebox. Strangely, Rudebox the single alienated some Uk fan and enrage the uk press! Still, Rudebox (the single) was a massive sucess in mainland Europe, especially in Germany.

What's even stranger is that radio is still spinning from Intensive Care like Make Me Pure and Advertising Space. It was been the case of my country, Portugal.

Well, but Rudebox is a sucess, but not compared to previous RW albums. Maybe because it was released one year later from Intensive Care
