Remember when Robbie Williamswas making great music and doing tv shows, and he was like so famous and stuff? yeah, me neither.
British singer Robbie Williams says he absolutely won't release his new album "Intensive Care" in America. According to contactmusic.com, the songwriter is "stung by a lack of success in the u.s." and has henceforth resolved "not to give americans a taste of his new material."
He says: "the only way one of my albums is going to get into an l.a. record store is if i leave it there myself."
whooooooooooa!! that'll show us!! , It remains a mystery why Williams, like the Beckhams, is such a huge star in the UK but not in the US. He has sold an amazing 38 million albums in England but remains an unknown on this side of the Atlantic.
And while it seems like almost any Brit, Aussie, Irish, Welsh, Scot, Kiwi or Canadian actor or musician that can breath or has a pulse has made it big here, Robbie Williams can't get a break.
Crips, you'd think if no-talents like the Gottis and Tara Reid can get cable TV shows, Williams could get a little air time on US radio stations.
But that definitely won't happen now with his new marketing plan to ignore Americans.

Fara Kearnes the poster is a sore sour grapes loser. An idiot who is not a pro. Posters do not write stories while crying about other people's decisions. So he does not like Americans... so what? Most of the world doesn't either! It is HIS choice. I am American and notice my fellow Americans to be selfish, obnoxious and mainly stupid, I am ashamed to be an American but I have to live with it. I tell people I am Canadian when I meet them so they won't think I am a murderer.
