Robbie Williams revealed his frenemy with drugs which once nearly made him hurt himself.
The 34-year-old British singer got acquainted with drugs when he was a teenager and lived in his home town of Stoke-on-Trent. Robbie admitted that he was 16 when the drug LSD intercourse first got him into big trouble. The star remembers: “It was at Shelleys nightclub where I had my first acid experience. We were in Goldenhill in someone's kitchen probably. I was given a tiny piece of paper to ingest. Afterwards we drove up to the garage and the police were on the forecourt. S**t, I thought. I want to go home, I'm scared. There is only one place I want to be - at home with my mum. When I got home American footballs were coming out of the TV. So I decided to go downstairs and stab myself. Mum came out of her room and said, “What are you doing?” I said “I'm just going downstairs to stab myself - do you want a cup of tea?”
But it wasn’t a break down after that. Another big battle followed in 1995 when he tried to ride out drug addiction after quitting boy band Take That.
All in all drugs sidetracked him to rehab twice – the last time in 2007, shortly before Robbie’s 33d birthday. That time it was about prescription drugs for which he was admitted to a treatment facility in the US.
Recently Robbie has admitted he wants to be a full-time UFOlogist. He is advised to become a new judge on UK TV talent show “The X Factor”.
