Robbie Williams turns 50: his career in pictures

The singer was born in Great Britain on February 13, 1974. Today he celebrates his 50th birthday.

Robbie Williams was just 16 years old when his rise to pop stardom began in 1990 as a member of the boy band Take That. With the group he scored numerous hits that have survived to this day. Who doesn’t remember hits like “Back for Good” and “Never Forget”? However, it didn’t take long for the singer to realize that he wanted to do his own thing. His departure from the band in 1995 caused a wave of indignation, particularly in his native Great Britain. But things continued: He started his solo career and conquered the charts again with tracks like “Angels” and “Rock DJ”.

Today, at 50, Robbie Williams can look back on a career that has shaped generations. His influence on the pop music world is undeniable – even if not everyone could or wanted to deal with his extravagant style. But in any case, for today’s celebration: All the best!
