British pop star Robbie Williams, 51, says social media would have destroyed his career during his 1990s rise to fame, as he would have been too invested in negative comments. His new album Britpop has become his 16th UK number one, surpassing The Beatles’ record. He’s launching the ‘Long 90s’ tour in smaller venues to revisit his solo beginnings. Reflecting on the Britpop era, he recalls massive success mixed with depression and inability to feel joy. Fatherhood since 2012 has eased his stage fright and given life purpose. Now happily settled in the UK with less media intrusion, he critiques British culture for undervaluing success and wants to fully embrace this achievement.
