Let's hope he gets plenty practice , I do not want to be hiding behind a cushion again :o

 

 

 

:P

I just cannot get my head around it , all the stuff she does is very serious unless Robbie & Guy have written a song for the opening cermony

 

 

 

 

Maybe Better Man knows something about her :unsure:

 

Blimey didn't see this coming :lol:

 

Makes X Factor news seem very tame ;)

They've landed- lots of time to practice.

 

What a dream come true for him B-)

 

I can't keep up with all the Robbie news at the minute.

 

Has Alex fallen off the settee in shock? :dance:

Folks, I don't know anything but for me it's the best news I have ever got from Rob.

 

Actually I was the guy who believed he could perform at the opening, really. I said this last year to my friends but they thought I dream too much :)

But I thought he could recorder an anthem for this WC. He is not but this news is even better.

Everytime when you think there is the end of 'Robbie Williams' he does something big.

 

I'm VERY happy he will do it for World Cup in Russia.

I really wanted his set at the Olympics in London but you know...

 

When I was a child it was my dream to see Rob performing at the stadium in my country, but I never believed he could do this due to not so big popularity here.

Yes, it's not a proper concert but it doesn't matter...

 

I could I write much longer message but the main direction of this will be the same: it's a big luck for me that I chose Rob to be my favourite artist in my life - he always does me great presents.

 

:)

 

p.s. I will not be at the stadium cos I haven't got a ticket but it doesn't matter at all: I was at so many his concerts so I can't ask for life more than I've already have had so I just hope the audience will love the performance.

p.p.s. And yes, that's the best he could do for us after concerts cancellation last year. I can't say about all fans but for me he and his management came up the best replacement. Thanks.

ROBBIE WILLIAMS AND AIDA GARIFULLINA WILL SING AT THE 2018 WORLD CUP CEREMONY, PRESENTED BY RONALDO NAZARIO

 

 

Arnaldo VallenillaARNALDO VALLENILLAJUNE 11, 2018CURIOSITIESINTERNATIONALSNEWS

 

 

June 14 will be the great day on which it will begin, which is possibly the most anticipated sporting event worldwide, since it is the Russia 2018 World Cup, and as usual, an opening ceremony will be held, with a musical show, 30 minutes before the game, and this time, Robbie Williams, will be in charge of the show, along with the Russian star, Aida Garifullina.

 

This news was released thanks to the fact that both artists have posted on Instagram, declaring that they will be part of this ceremony, for which they feel incredibly happy, since to present themselves in front of 80 thousand soccer lovers, is a dream come true.

 

 

On the other hand, Russia will have its musical representation as usual in each world cup that the host country presents to one of its musical stars, and Aida Garifullina will be in charge of her country. The artist published a somewhat funny videoclip on her Instagram, where she makes the attempt to dominate a soccer ball.

 

 

It is not necessary to leave behind, that the presenter will be the Brazilian Ronaldo Nazario, who has under his arm two World Cups (1994-2002) and has become an important face for the world of football.

Robbie Williams 'handing PR coup to Putin' by singing at World Cup opening ceremony https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/06/11...id=tmg_share_tw via @telegraphnews

 

I think there will a lot of objection to his performing which he surely must have considered before he said yes?

 

 

The very same question could be asked about the England team participating & playing in Russia if that is how it is being viewed ..why just pick on Robbie

 

 

 

Laura, Tess, thank you so much!!

 

Very sad the World looks ugly almost in all its parts because of politics ... Can they be more friendly to each other one fine day...? I still believe in it.

 

For current case...just my opinion...if I were English...after having this news I would not have thought 'how terrible he is going to bad country Russia', but that... 'interestingly, the bad country Russia respects our culture. Maybe Russia is not so bad then?'

 

For me personally to respect own culture and respect the culture of other countries makes very big sense.

Only culture and...sports (in my opinion) can unite our unstable World.

 

And this case is just about sports and culture :)

 

Actually The Guardian always writes bad things about Robbie (including albums review, etc.), isn't it?

 

Do you know anything about the beautiful lady he is to duet with ...

Actually no, I don't know her but it sounds really unusual and interesting.

Well - this little corner of the world can represent world peace Alex even if the politicians can't. ^_^

 

The UK and Russia in perfect harmony over their appreciation of RW. :)

I am shivering.Please, Rob, make it as good as it is great. I love it, but I am really paniced that this will go well considering gis nervousness on NYE and this will only be in dront of 1 billion?

Politicians & World leaders are mostly only interested in their own egos so I do not dwell to much on it

 

Well said Laura, we do our bit here , all are wellcome :cool:

People in all countries Alex just want to get on with their day to day lives & most times we have very little say in what happens but I think the hand of friendship always goes a long way . sport & music does bring people together so I am hopeful of good things from this world cup. i hope it all goes very well.

 

I hope it all goes well for Robbie & his band on Thursday, how exciting for all of them , I bet Gary Nutall is thrilled :P

 

 

 

 

I'm not really into football but if Robbie's performing I wanna watch it :D

 

I hope the performance is aired over here
