Better Man

Robbie Williams first becomes famous at 16 as a singer in the boy band sensation Take That, but really hits stride as a solo artist. His tours are instant sellouts and he makes the Guinness Book for selling 1.6 million tickets for a tour in a day. Williams battles demons both on and off the stage as he becomes a huge star. He is a provocative, outsized personality but strangely, about the only place in the world where he hasn't hit superstar stature is in America, where he lives most of the time.
