ROBBIE Williams has denied claims he is to rejoin Take That.

The singer was rumoured to be hooking up with Gary Barlow, Mark Owen, Howard Donald and Jason Orange when the four-piece head out on tour this summer.

But Rob has denied he will appear with the chart-topping band.

He wrote on his blog: "There was no interview regarding me getting back with Take That.

"The boys have their own thing going on and so do I."

The solo star also denied his actress girlfriend Ayda Field is unhappy in the UK.

The TV star moved from LA this year to be with the Stoke-born singer.

Robbie said: "Ayda is very happy here.

"She has never indicated anything otherwise.

"We'd be happy in a barrel up a pole in Baghdad."

Jason, 38, was relaxing in the spring sunshine outside Piccolino restaurant in Hale when he began speaking to two female diners.

Dressed in a chunky fir trimmed jacket, Jason flashed a cheeky grin when asked about Robbie, who hinted at joining his former band mates during a visit to Manchester last week.

Meanwhile Robbie, who split from the band to go solo in 1995 and didn't take part in their triumphant 2006 comeback, appears to be back tracking on the prospect of a reunion. He said yesterday: "The boys have their own thing going on and so do I".

I HAVE been giddy with the news that Spandau Ballet are doing a reunion.

Ladies dig out the leather trousers and white frilly shirts, grab your hairbrush and start singing “Gold”.

But sadly when it comes to reunions the only one that anyone seems interested in is the return of Robbie to Take That.

Oh Robbie, how those tables have turned.

The remaining Take That boys (middle-aged men if you’re under 22) are doing so well the last thing they need is Robbie’s gyrating hips and gurning showmanship stealing their thunder again.

Anyway, the only entertaining Mr Williams seems capable of nowadays is giving us all a laugh with his alien obsession and dodgy facial hair!

I hate to say this and shatter everyone’s dreams, but ladies, it’s never going to happen.

Gary Barlow is the man of the moment – never thought I’d hear myself say that – but can you really see him retreating from the spotlight for Robbie. I don’t think so!

The best fans can hope for is a collaboration – Robbie as Lulu perhaps in the next Comic Relief single.

I would love to eat my words and see Robbie perform with the boys when they hit the capital in June but sadly I think there will be four middle-aged men performing on stage, not five.

Robbie Williams will rejoin Take That on one condition - if rest of the members of the band agree to dress up in embarrassing kinky stage outfits, according to sources.

The group built up a huge fan following in their early days, playing gay clubs across Britain.

One of the main highlights of their act was the S&M-style leather stage costumes that sent camp male fans wild.

Now, friends have said that Williams has suggested bringing back the outfits one last time when he rejoins the band later this year.

“They have often laughed about those old embarrassing outfits and how awful they were to wear,” the Daily Star quoted an insider, as saying.

“But it looks like Robbie and the rest of the guys might dust them off for one last time just to give their fans a thrill.

“They have all got a great sense of fun so, if they can still squeeze into them, they’ll play along,” the insider added. (ANI)

Take That
Робби Уильямс заявил, что «был бы не прочь воссоединиться со своими давними коллегами по Take That» - да и парни, мол, с энтузиазмом поддерживают такую идею.

По словам Робби, он давно уже наладил отношения с остальными участниками группы, которая сделала его знаменитым в середине 90-х и которую он покинул ради сольной карьеры 14 лет назад. «Мы находимся в постоянном контакте друг с другом, - сообщил Уильямс на днях. – Все плохое осталось в прошлом, мы снова прекрасно ладим. Не удивлюсь, если Take That снова соберутся в оригинальном составе – можно сказать, что мы уже дозрели. Думаю, что это все же случится – но не раньше следующего года».

Если верить британским СМИ, то реюнион Take That – всего лишь дело времени. На прошлой неделе журналисты застукали все пятерых участников - Робби Уильямса, Гари Барлоу, Марка Оуэна, Ховарда Дональда и Джейсона Оранжа – в лондонской студии Sarm West, принадлежащей участнику Frankie Goes To Hollywood Тревору Хорну. При этом бывшие коллеги якобы очень комфортно чувствовали себя в общей компании, перебрасываясь шутками и развлекаясь.

Правда, выяснилось, что музыканты работают над разными проектами: Робби Уильямс заканчивает работу над своим новым сольным альбомом, а Take That делают первые наброски к последователю недавно выпущенного диска «The Circus», ставшего вторым по успешности релизом 2008-го года в Великобритании. Но никто ведь не запрещает музыкантам записаться вместе – да и включить этот «фичеринг» на один из альбомов в качестве сюрприза! Большое ведь начинается с малого…

"Они находятся в одном и том же здании. Гари в одной комнате, а Робби в другой, так что довольно часто они друг на друга наталкиваются. И при этом отлично находят темы для беседы." - говорит Тревор Хорн.

На прошлой неделе Уильямс снова дал повод к тому, чтобы СМИ написали об очередной возможности воссоединения Take That в оригинальном составе. Певец сообщил изданию Daily Mirror о том, что возобновил дружбу со всеми участниками группы. Впрочем, представители артиста по-прежнему отрицают наличие намерений артиста влиться в свой бывший коллектив. "Он полностью сосредоточен на записи альбома, и об реюнионе речи не идет." По крайней мере, до осени - когда выйдет новая сольная работа Уильямса.

The singer was desperate to reunite with his former bandmates after their massive comeback success.

But Gary Barlow, who had a long-running feud with Robbie after the band split, has put a stop to that.

Asked if they had any Robbie reunion plans, he said: “The answer is no. That’s it. Nothing’s changed on that front.
“We are a happy band at the moment.”

Gary sets the record straight on tonight’s Chris Moyles Quiz Night on Channel 4.

Robbie, 35, walked out on Take That in 1995, branding his bandmates “morons”.

Last month he had hinted the feud was over and a reunion was on the cards.

But Gary, 38, Mark Owen, Howard Donald and Jason Orange are now busy preparing for their sell-out Circus Live UK tour this summer… without Robbie.
