Robbie Williams is writing a musical of his life story based around a secret track on his first solo album.
According to the Sunday Mirror, the singer is writing the musical at his home in LA and will call it Hello Sir. The paper also says that William's friend Jonathan Wilkes is in the running to play him.
"This will be a lavish musical - like Billy Elliot meets Mama Mia, all about Robbie's rise to fame," said a source. "But it also touches on the the loneliness and sadness."
With Never Forget, the Take That musical in the making, it will be interesting to see how Williams gets around the years before he went solo. And by interesting we mean, should a sudden fit of interest pique us, will we have to buy tickets to both?

The lonliness and sadness? What a wanker. I would rather crawl naked over five miles of broken glass with Gary Glitter on my back than experience this talentless no mark whinge in public. I hope he has an asthma attack.
