Robbie Williams 'nominated for knighthood' after launching Soccer Aid and music career

Robbie Williamshas reportedly been nominated for a knighthood for his charity work as well as his contribution to music. It was only recently that it was revealed football icon David Beckham was named in the King's Birthday Honours list, making him a Sir and his wife, Victoria, a Lady.

And now, there are calls for Rock DJ singer Robbie, who has 15 chart-topping records and seven number one singles as a solo artist, to become a Sir as well. It would be up to an honours committee, which will then send a shortlist of recommendations to Prime Minister Keir Starmer before King Charles signs it off.

The 51-year-old Angels singer created Soccer Aid in 2006, which has raised £106 million for Unicef over the years. He has been an ambassador for the charity since 2000.

He has also been the Patron of the children's charity the Donna Louise Trust, based in Stoke-on-Trent, since 2002. The charity provides palliative care to terminally ill children who are not expected to live past 16.

Robbie has been involved in many Comic Relief events and is also a patron for Music Support, a registered charity that helps peers who work in the UK music industry experiencing substance use, addiction and/or mental health challenges.

Radio star Scott Mills also supported the idea of Robbie getting a knighthood. Speaking to The Sun, he said: "Let’s not forget, he’s the most decorated Brits winner in history. I think we should celebrate and acknowledge how much joy he has brought.

“He deserves it. Not only for his contribution to music, but also for fighting his demons in the public eye and coming out the other side."

Robbie mighthave already seen his future as a Sir, as he previously claimed he has psychic powers. The Let Me Entertain You singer said he doesn't think the strange happenings are coincidences, as they occur too frequently.

Speaking on the Weaponized podcast, he shared: "You think of people and they phone. You think of people and they email. A lot of this could be coincidence. But the rate that it is happening just recently, oh wow, you've got my attention."

He also opened up about his belief in extra-terrestrial life and how he thought he saw two UFOs flying over LA 20 years ago.

He claimed the unidentified flying object was so close he could have hit it with "a tennis ball" - and said he wasn't under the influence of any substances at the time.

Another occasion, while writing the song Arizona, which is about alien contact, a "gold ball of light" appeared in the studio when his song was playing.
