Robbie Williams (born as Robert Peter Maximillion Williams, on February 13th 1974 in Stoke-on-Trent, Staffordshire) is a pop singer from the United Kingdom.my early pop career started with the hit boy band Take That. The band was formed in 1990 and proved to be highly successful, with 8 United Kingdom Number 1 singles to are credit.are popularity led to a succession of similar bands in the United Kingdom.However, it has since been suggested that my roguish qualities meant that i didn't fit into the band, and i frequently battled with the fellow band members and the management. After leaving the band in 1995, the final Take That album Nobody Else was re-issued in some markets excluding songs where i was the lead vocalist. The final Take That single "How Deep is Your Love" is the only one that didn't feature me
