A Robbie Williams superfan was kissed by the singer during his recent show at Murrayfield in Edinburgh. Debbie Allan, from Dundee, spoke to STV News about the surreal moment she was serenaded by Williams at his Scottish show on Saturday night. 'I did know that part of the show was him singing 'She's the One' to someone, he came down the stairs and picked someone next to us, but he wanted to sing to someone from Scotland, and he looked directly at me, and I said I'm from Dundee and he picked me,' the 41-year-old said. 'It was such a surreal moment, I can't believe he picked me for that part of the show. It was amazing.' Lindsay Ann Malone Debbie and Robbie at the Edinburgh Murrayfield show. Lindsay Ann Malone Debbie and her friends had been waiting outside Murrayfield since 6am before the doors opened at 4pm. 'It was quite a long day, but it went by quickly.

STV News Born and raised in Dundee, Debbie has been a fan of Take That and Robbie Williams since she was a teenager. STV News 'I just keep replaying the videos.

Debbie's love for the singer goes back to her teenage years when she was a fan of Take That. Since then, she has been to around 35 of Williams' shows, travelling across Scotland, England, and even further afield. 'The furthest we've gone to see a show was Germany, but we do all the Scottish shows,' she said. She recalled paying £11 for a ticket in 1997 to see him perform at the Barrowlands in Glasgow.

Robbie Williams spends $24,800 to buy Eric Morecambe's glasses at auction
Robbie Williams has achieved a childhood dream by buying beloved British comedian Eric Morecambe's glasses and pipe at auction. The She's the One singer made his winning online bid of $24,800 (£20,000) during an auction held last month at Burton Albion Football Club. Hansons Auctioneers auctioned the Morecambe and Wise star's belongings in 700 lots on 10 and 11 January, in a sale held almost 10 months after the death of his widow, Joan, aged 97. Morecambe died of a heart attack, aged 58, in 1984. After revealing on Instagram that he had bought the glasses and pipe via internet bids, Williams wrote that he was in "tears" having obtained the items. "You see, I guess we all need friends-we-never-meet from off the telly," he explained. "Eric has always been mine. An Uncle of sorts. To the very core of me, Eric Morecambe's spirit has been salve for my soul. How Eric made me feel is how I want to make people feel. What a gift to be able to create such joy and have that joy be present just by thinking of them." Referencing Morecambe and Wise's theme, Bring Me Sunshine, he added: "I will commune with Eric's Glasses, ask questions and maybe get some answers. "What Would Eric Do?" Now I can ask him. Eric, you were and are the very best of the very best. That sunshine you asked for. You gave to me." Along with his comic partner Ernie Wise, Morecambe was a popular figure on U.K. TV throughout the 1970s and early 1980s, with younger generations of Brits also tuning into repeats of their much-loved Christmas specials each year.
