Five surprise Robbie Williams fans with first live performance in 25 years
Five have surprised Robbie Williams fans at a London concert with their first live performance in 25 years. Concert-goers were sent into a frenzy when the multi-platinum selling band joined Robbie on stage during his performance.
Robbie is currently on his huge BRITPOP stadium tour and Five's appearance is their first performance with all five members together for more than two decades.
The band's iconic 1999 chart-topping song Keep On Moving played through the stadium while Robbie admitted that he didn't know all of the words of the second verse and asked the audience to join in to help which is when the band appeared.
Abz Love, J Brown, Ritchie Neville, Scott Robinson and Sean Conlon all walked out on stage before singing along to their song. This is also the first time Five and Robbie have performed together.
Talking about the opportunity, Five said: "Wow, what an honour to be asked by Robbie Williams to join him on stage at his London stadium show. Rob has been such a big supporter of ours, from the early days through to the comeback, so when he reached out to ask whether we'd come out on stage for his performance of Keep On Movin', it was the EASIEST yes.
"To get to share that moment with Robbie in front of 60k people was crazy… definitely a version of Keep On Movin' we'll never forget." The surprise performance comes ahead of Five's 25-date KEEP ON MOVIN' Tour, which will kick off this October.
This comes after Robbie recently opened up about her deals with anxiety when he is recognised by fans. The star, 51, said how interactions with fans can "spike" the issue in a heartfelt post on Instagram.
He described a recent incident on board a flight in America saying: "I've had three interactions so far with fellow passengers. One of them handed my a lovely note - kind words about my documentary - and then asked for a photo."
Robbie said he sent another note back explaining that he had "been up since 4.30am, had two hours' sleep, and wrangled four kids through the airport". He also confessed to dealing with anxiety before saying anybody approaching him for a photo would cause it to "spike" due to the further attention it would cause.
However, he said he hadn't rejected the request, but instead tried to explain how many people had a photo with him, but no-one had the same handwritten note.
Robbie revealed how it's a daily situation for him, with strangers approaching him on average 20 times a day to take a photo. But he then argued that there are some situations that he doesn't want to capture and there should be scenarios in which he can reject a request.
"I was on the phone to my wife the other day - she was in flood of tears about her mum. Is it okay for me to say no to a photo request then?," he asked. "What if I'm having a challenging mental health day - is it okay if I don't want that captured by a stranger?"
He finished off his post by saying he needed to get that off his chest and it was "not a moan". Fans and celeb friends such as Paris Hilton, Amanda Holden and Kris Jenner all left messages saying they understood the difficult situation.

A-list star reveals Taylor Swift provided her refuge during LA fires… and she 'destroyed' part of singer's home
An A-list celebrity revealed that Taylor Swift provided her refuge amid the devastating Los Angeles wildfires earlier this year in January. Zoe Kravitz - who has been a close friend of the Grammy winner for many years - opened up about the kind gesture during a recent appearance on Late Night With Seth Meyers on Tuesday. The 36-year-old actress was also joined by her mom Lisa Bonet as they stayed at the singer's historic $25 million Beverly Hills mansion - and got candid about the incident that 'destroyed' a part of the abode. 'We ended up having to stay there for about two weeks,' Zoe said, with her mother's pet snake Orpheus also tagging along. 'And Taylor has this beautiful house. It's from the '30s, something you want to preserve and take care of.' She recalled telling her mom that she likes to be a 'good houseguest' and 'leave places better than I found them.' While cleaning up the house shortly before she planned to leave, The Batman star received a call from Lisa - who was also inside the home. But The Cosby Show alum admitted to her daughter that she had gotten into 'a pickle.' View this post on Instagram A post shared by Late Night with Seth Meyers (@latenightseth) Zoe recalled going upstairs and finding the bathroom door shut. When she opened it, the star found Lisa 'crouched in the corner in this weird way.' 'And I'm like, "What's going on dude?" And she's like, "So I was washing my face and I had Orpheus and I just put her down for a second. Closed the door and she found this little hole in the corner."' The actress went on to explain that there was a banquette built into the wall next to the tiny hole. Zoe added that her mom was able to get a hold of the snake's tail as they both tried to come up with a plan to try to pull Orpheus out from the wall. However, the snake began to get further into the wall which caused her to 'panic.' She eventually had to reach out to Swift's house manager who arrived to the scene and began to use a crowbar to 'tear apart this banquette.' 'We're ripping up the tile. We're scratching the walls. I mean it's just like...,' Zoe continued before adding that she also had to help her mom hold onto the snake. 'Completely destroyed Taylor's bathroom and there was just this moment where I was like, "Either we destroy her bathroom or I have to tell her that there's a snake somewhere in her house."' Zoe explained, 'I said to her house manager, "Obviously, I'm gonna pay for everything to be fixed. Please just don't say anything until it's fixed."' But when the actress called Taylor to admit to the situation, the Bad Blood songstress already knew. 'I remember calling her saying, "Hey, I wanted to talk to you about something." And she was like, "Is it the fact that you almost lost a snake in my house and destroyed my bathroom?"' Zoe then joked that Taylor's next album is going to be called Orpheus based on the humorous snake mishap. The two stars have developed a close friendship over the years, and have been seen spending time together on various occasions. Late last year in November, the singer and actress stepped out to grab dinner in NYC - not long after Zoe split from ex Channing Tatum. And a few months earlier, the High Fidelity star gave a little insight into the friendship on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon. At the time, she had cheered on Taylor during her Eras Tour stop at Wembley Stadium and said, 'It's crazy.' The two stars have developed a close friendship over the years, and have been seen spending time together on various occasions; Taylor and Zoe seen in 2016 in NYC Zoe continued, 'I mean, I'm not surprised, because Taylor is scary talented at everything she does, so it's not surprising that she's so good. 'But what is weirder actually to me, is that after she performs for however many thousands of people that is, you know, she just comes over after, and like, we drink some wine, and like, eat a burger, and like, hang out.' Zoe - who is also the daughter of music artist Lenny Kravitz - had the chance to collaborate with Taylor on her 2022 Midnights album. She notably cowrote the tracks Karma and Lavender Haze, while also offering background vocals to the latter. Last year, the Grammy winner supported Zoe with her directorial debut for the 2024 movie Blink Twice. The songstress had jumped to her Instagram stories and called the film 'incredible' while adding that she was 'blown away.' Zoe has been keeping busy and is preparing for the release of her latest project Caught Stealing - which is set to be released later this month on August 29. The comedy crime thriller also stars Austin Butler, Matt Smith, Bad Bunny, Regina King, Liev Schreiber and Vincent D'Onofrio. The premise is: 'Burned-out ex-baseball player Hank Thompson unexpectedly finds himself embroiled in a dangerous struggle for survival amidst the criminal underbelly of 1990s New York City, forced to navigate a treacherous underworld he never imagined,' per IMDB. Taylor also sent fans into a frenzy this week when she announced her upcoming 12th studio album The Life Of A Showgirl. She shared the big news during a snippet of the upcoming episode of her boyfriend Travis Kelce's New Heights podcast on Monday. The full episode is set to air later this week on Wednesday, August 13 - with the NFL player's brother Jason Kelce also co-hosting.

Kylie Jenner unleashes animal instinct in busty bikini amid Timothee Chalamet breakup rumors
Kylie Jenner unleashed her animal instinct in a barely-there leopard print bikini for a sizzling new set of Instagram posts. She fired up her Stories this Tuesday to offer her 393 million followers a glimpse behind the scenes at her latest modeling shoot. In one photo, the 28-year-old lip kit mogul showed off her amply endowed cleavage and enviably chiseled midriff in the slinky two-piece. The Kylie Cosmetics tycoon wrapped a towel round her waist and slid into a set of fuzzy slippers, slinging on a royal purple purse with snakeskin stitching. Her Stories that day also included a selfie video, in which the shot ran up and down the length of her body to show off her swimsuit as she giggled with a colleague. While she allowed a peek into the mechanics of her workday, she kept her personal life veiled, maintaining her silence on her breakup rumors with Timothee Chalamet. Although the couple engaged in frequent public displays of affection early this summer, fans have observed they have not been seen out together in over a month. Pouring fuel on the speculation, Timothee neglected to wish his girlfriend a happy birthday on social media when she turned 28 on Saturday. Instead, he posted a famous photo of Muhammad Ali knocking out Sonny Liston in 1965, accompanied by the caption: 'Dream Big.' Kylie then sent the conjecture into overdrive by posting Insta Stories showing she was listening to two breakup songs - Lover, You Should've Come Over by Jeff Buckley and Crying, Laughing, Loving, Lying by Labi Saffre. Although they have not shied away from being glimpsed together in public, they have kept their relationship off social media, declining to post photos of each other. Yet early this summer, they were repeatedly spotted together at the front row of basketball games to watch his beloved New York Knicks play. This May, the pair walked the red carpet together for the first time before attending the 70th David Di Donatello Awards at Rome's iconic Cinecitta Studios. Kylie had accompanied Timothee to awards shows before, including the Oscars and the Golden Globes, but had previously let him walk the red carpet solo before appearing with him inside the ceremony. Shortly after the Golden Globes, an insider shared the reason that Kylie waited until after the red carpet to materialize at Timothee's side that night. 'Kylie didn't want to make it about them. She wanted this night to be all about Timothee, how it was intended to be,' the source told Page Six. In May an insider claimed the couple, who were first linked in April 2023 and went public with their romance that September, had 'gotten really serious,' via Us Weekly. 'They are practically living together at this point, as he stays at her house often when he is not working. He has been fully integrated into her life,' shared the source. 'They are in a really good place. He makes her feel calm and confident and it is a different relationship from what she has had in the past.' Kylie shares her two children, a daughter called Stormi, seven, and a son called Aire, three, with her amicable ex-boyfriend Travis Scott. She previously had a longtime relationship with Travis' fellow rapper Tyga, beginning when the latter was in his 20s and Kylie was a teenager.

Would YOU wear this swimsuit? Raunchy reality star shocks with extreme bikini that seems to defy the laws of physics
It probably won't be your go-to outfit for a nip down to the beach with the kids. But Too Hot To Handle star Larissa Trownson made a case for some very skimpy swimmers as she took to Instagram on Wednesday. The Kiwi reality star, 29, uploaded a scorching photo gallery of herself perched on bathtub wearing the G-string two-piece, which featured little more than two ribbons of white fabric tied together by thin elastic. Sporting a rich mahogany spray tan, the lawyer revealed a generous glimpse of underboob as she sprawled suggestively for the camera. Her long brown hair cascaded past her shoulders, while a set of gold necklaces completed her look. 'Not your average bath bomb,' joked Larissa in the caption, before revealing that she was wearing a $38.00 bikini from Fashion Nova. Larissa rose to fame on season two of the hit show Too Hot To Handle, which aired on Netflix in 2021. The dating series follows a bunch of sexy singletons staying in a beachside mansion who must get through a four-week sex ban to win $100,000. Ever an open book, the bombshell has admitted to tweaking her appearance significantly over the years - receiving a breast enlargement, regular Botox and lip filler. Speaking to Daily Mail Australia, the social media siren said she's unashamed to speak about her cosmetic enhancements and wants to be 'transparent' to help other women. 'I think it's really important we're transparent about work we've had done, otherwise that helps portray unreal beauty standards especially for younger women,' she said. 'So I've always been upfront about it and I chose to have it, so I'm proud of it.' When asked to describe herself in three words, Larissa said she's 'brains and beauty'.
