More about the film from Ster-Kinekor
Robbie Williams is one of the world's most successful solo artists, holding 15 Brit Awards (more than any other artist in music history).
He has had eight number 1 albums in the UK, a success that has been mirrored in many countries around the world. His epic Close Encounters tour in 2006 set a world record, selling 1,6 million tickets in a single day.
Commenting on his forthcoming performance, Williams said: "I'm looking forward to playing my new songs, working with Trevor Horn again and seeing how people react to what I've been doing."
Williams released his new album 'Reality Killed The Video Star' on EMI's Virgin Records on November 9 in South Africa. The album features twelve brand new tracks (plus one reprise). A deluxe version of the album will also be released with expanded packaging and a DVD featuring documentary/behind-the-scenes footage.
"He's added something to the record that I haven't had on previous records – his genius" says Williams about working with producer Trevor Horn. "I just think it sounds big – track after track after track".
Horn is a multiple award-winning producer who has worked with some of the world's top artists. He achieved his greatest commercial success in 1984, firstly with the Liverpudlian band Frankie Goes to Hollywood. Other artists he has produced include Cher, Grace Jones, Seal, Propaganda, Tina Turner, Lisa Stansfield, Tom Jones, Paul McCartney, Pet Shop Boys, Simple Minds, Eros Ramazzotti, Mike Oldfield, Marc Almond, Charlotte Church, t.A.T.u, LeAnn Rimes, and Belle & Sebastian. Horn received a Grammy Award in 1996 for Seal's second album.
Talking about the album, Robbie says "This is a record that I'm very proud of – I think it's f%^*ing brilliant. I want it to be the record that, if people think of Robbie Williams, they go, 'yeah, reality killed the video star!'"
