Robert Peter Maximilian Williams (born 13 February 1974) is an English singer, songwriter, and record producer. While Williams' early pop career started with the hit boy band Take That, he has found far greater success since taking his leave.

After leaving the band in 1995, the final Take That album Nobody Else was re-issued in some markets excluding songs where Robbie Williams was the lead vocalist. The final Take That single, "How Deep Is Your Love," is the only one that didn't feature Williams. In November 2005, ITV1 screened a documentary on Take That, including the reasons behind Williams' departure, including interviews with Williams and his former fellow band members. Williams declined the offer to reunite with the band, but spoke to them via a pre-recorded video message.

Williams has apparently given the reformation his blessing. After Take That After leaving Take That, Williams immersed himself in the pop lifestyle. This included an affected swagger and an infamous appearance during Oasis's headlining set at Glastonbury in 1995. He had dyed his hair platinum blond and painted his teeth black for the concert. Liam Gallagher, the lead singer for Oasis, often referred to Williams as "that fat dancer from Take That." This led to a highly publicised battle w
