Yungblud Admits He ‘Lost Himself’ and ‘Risked It All’

December 15, 2025

By Amy Palmer

It’s been a pretty good year for Yungblud – his career trajectory has been on a constant upward climb. It hasn’t all been plain sailing though. He’s navigated the loss of one of his idols, Ozzy Osbourne, and also dealt with the trappings of new-found fame and figuring out who he is. In a new interview, the musician opened up about these challenges – and how a fellow singer recently reached out to him.

Before releasing his most recent album, Idols, Yungblud admits he was a bit too eager to please the masses. He told Billboard UK: “I completely lost myself and I was listening to the world and critics of my work too much.”

He added, of his most recent work: “I really risked it all. I thought, ‘If people don’t like this one, then maybe it’s the end. When you’re a young artist it can be hard to take criticism, but now you’ve got to laugh at it.”

His record label is definitely pleased about his new success. While he once had to fight to put out music he loved, they’re apparently now all about the “rock thing.” He explained: “My record label is now like, ‘Yeah man, got to keep on the rock thing!’ It’s like, f*ck off. It’s not a ‘thing’. It’s what I’ve grown up around.”

Yungblud also told the publication that Robbie Williams recently reached out to him.

He said: “He wrote me this letter when it really needed to come. He related himself to me, saying that he knew what it was like to be a 28-year-old who was trying to figure out who they were, while also dealing with a million opinions about what he could be or never be. People don’t give Robbie the credit for his mind and the way he sees things.”

The rocker had to cancel tour dates last month following advice from doctors.

Good inspiration of the 2nd difficult album :)

This stunning new photography exhibition features photos of some of the most legendary names in music – with snaps of everyone from Snoop Dogg to Robbie Williams, David Bowie, Oasis, Sade, Bob Marley, and more

Regardless of how much or how little you know about music, you'll spot a familiar face at the AIM, SHOOT, STOP, FIX music photography exhibition.

As much as music is, by definition, an auditory art form, it has always been intrinsically linked with visuals. Whether through album artwork and music videos, or stage presence and band aesthetic (like, y’know, KISS), how a musician or band has looked has always been of note. And a stunning new music photography exhibition is opening in London this week, which invites visitors to dive into the blurry-bordered world of intimate portraits and cultivated imagery.

AIM, SHOOT, STOP, FIX brings together work from “four of the most influential music photographers of their generation — Peter Anderson, Chris Clunn, David Corio and Lawrence Watson”. All four started their careers shooting for New Musical Express (aka NME) in the 70s and 80s, at a time when photographers often had complete access to the musicians. The new exhibition is a rare chance to see all of their works together in one place

Head on down, because it opens tomorrow, on March 10. Be sure you don’t wait too long to check it out, either, because it’s only around for one month!

AIM, SHOOT, STOP, FIX and music photography in the 70s and 80s

To understand just what made the music photography of this time period so significant and impactful, you have to understand how different the attitude was. At the time, music journalism and publications like NME played an integral role in shaping culture. As such, due to their importance and sway, “photographers were granted remarkable creative freedom and unprecedented access to emerging artists”.

At the time, there was far less corporate control and fewer concerns about public image. There was a trust that united the artists and the photographers, who were often “embedded in the scene — backstage, on the road, in studios, at home.” It was the type of access that led to a level of intimacy and accessibility that resulted in wholly unique images.

Added to that was the unique crossroads that music reached as the 80s marched on into the 90s. The time saw riotous creativity and expression as “post-punk fractured into new wave, hip-hop crossed into the mainstream, Britpop exploded, and club culture reshaped Britain. These are not simply portraits — they are documents of musical history in the making.”

Musicians in the music photography exhibition

Together, the four photographers featured in the show have snapped hundreds of artists – including household names that even the most ardent living-under-a-rock music-ignorer has heard of. In a sense, these photographers have defined the way many of us now see modern music and musicians.

Among the musicians they’ve shot are:

• Snoop Dogg

• Madonna

• Robbie Williams

• David Bowie

• Run DMC

• Nick Cave

• Marvin Gaye

• Joy Division

• Iggy Pop

• Oasis

• Sade

• Bob Marley

• Blur

• Jamiroquai

• and many, many more.

AIM, SHOOT, STOP, FIX is on display from March 10 – April 9, 2026.

📍 Worldly Wicked & Wise Gallery, 81 Salusbury Road, NW6 6NH. The nearest station is Queen’s Park.

Inside Chris Lam­bell’s impress­ive col­lec­tion of Rob­bie Wil­li­ams mem­or­ab­ilia

ROBBIE WILLIAMS

CHRIS LAMBELL CROWBOROUGH, EAST SUSSEX

Q When did you first become a Super­fan of Rob­bie Wil­li­ams?

A I man­aged to get an advance copy of Sing When You’re Win­ning in 2000. Hear­ing Bet­ter Man, and then the rest of the album, turned me from a cas­ual fan to Super­fan.

Q What do you have in your col­lec­tion? A

Over 600 CDs, vinyl, cas­settes, DVDs, videos and books. I’ve got lots of sales awards, music video and album props, magazines, tour pro­grammes and more. I like to col­lect unique and rare items – I even have a demo ver­sion of Rock DJ that prob­ably hasn’t been heard by Rob in more than 25 years.

Q How much have you spent on it? A

I dread to think! The most that I’ve spent on one item was £1,800 for a paint­ing from his Wil­li­ams Godrich col­lec­tion called Vic­toria (named after Vic­toria Beck­ham).

Q What is your favour­ite Rob­bie item? A

That’s a tough ques­tion, as dif­fer­ent items hold dif­fer­ent memor­ies for me.

The ‘King of Pop’ ban­ner he took from me on stage in Ber­lin, the jet­pack from the Mil­len­nium video, hand­writ­ten lyr­ics to

Deceiv­ing Is Believ­ing, my audi­tion num­ber from when I appeared in the music video for Something Beau­ti­ful or his match-worn Soc­cer Aid shirt? I’ll go with the lyr­ics.

Q Have you ever met Rob­bie? A

I’ve met him a quite a few times at dif­fer­ent events like Soc­cer Aid, album sign­ings and premi­eres. I was also lucky enough to be invited by Matt and Lucy from the Rob­bie Wil­li­ams Rewind pod­cast to a Brit­pop listen­ing party in May 2025 that Rob him­self atten­ded. However, I still need a proper photo with him!

Q If you could ask him one ques­tion, what would it be?

A I used to chat with Rob on his offi­cial fan app a few years ago and he’d answer my ques­tions I asked about his music. I don’t have one spe­cific ques­tion, but I’d love to sit down with him and talk about his back cata­logue and career. Q Is there one Holy Grail item of mem­or­ab­ilia that you’d love to get your hands on? A Be A Boy is my favour­ite song, so I’d love hand­writ­ten lyr­ics to that and, of course, a framed photo of me with Rob!

It’s the end of an era.

X-ray Touring partner and agent Ian Huffam has stepped down from his position as worldwide agent for Robbie Williams after 28 years. 

Huffam has been by Robbie Williams’ side through his huge success as a solo artist, including record-breaking tours and his three-night stand at Knebworth for 375,000 fans in 2003. As a global touring artist, he has sold millions of tickets.

Williams recently beat The Beatles’ No.1 record when he scored a 16th chart-topper with 2026 album Britpop.

He now has a big run of dates lined up through summer and autumn including festivals across Europe, as well as dates in South America, Australia and New Zealand, including arenas and stadiums. 

Music Week has confirmed that Huffam has made the decision to step down as Williams’ agent, effective December 2026.

It’s been a wild ride from student union shows in the late ’90s to multiple stadium shows across all continents

Ian Huffam

“After 28 wonderful years representing Robbie, I have taken the decision to step down,” said Ian Huffam. “It’s been a wild ride from student union shows in the late ’90s to multiple stadium shows across all continents. Millions of tickets sold.

“Following recent RW team changes, it felt the right moment to reflect, and I pass the baton on to a new team. I depart on good terms and wish Robbie the very best of luck in the future.”

He added: “X-ray will continue to manage the 2026 live schedule, including multiple summer festivals and sell-out stadium shows in Mexico and South America and the recently announced Australian and New Zealand stadium tour’

With a career spanning more than 40 years, Huffam has represented acts including Gorillaz, Blur, New Order and Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds, along with Robbie Williams. He has overseen more than 200 headline stadium shows across every continent.

Robbie Williams is currently represented in the US only by CAA. The agency also represented Williams, alongside management firm ie:music, for the 2024 movie biopic Better Man.
