Watch awkward moment Robbie Williams calls out audience member during NYE gig in Australia
THIS is the awkward moment Robbie Williams called out a member of the audience during a New Year’s Eve gig in Australia.
The Rock DJ singer is currently riding high with the release of his new CGI biopic, Better Man.
Robbie, 50, was in Australia for a special performance to bring in 2025 with some of his biggest fans.
His show was broadcast on the Australian channel ABC, during their annual New Year celebrations.
However, the incredible staging was marred somewhat by an awkward exchange with a member of the audience.
The former X Factor judge wowed the gathered crowd with several of his chart-topping hits.
This included the hit track ‘Let Me Entertain You’, before the 13-piece band led into his 2002 song, Me and My Monkey.
Although he revelled in audience participation, he seemed to be less than impressed by one fan’s attempts to keep up.
In an apparent awkward blunder, he was stunned into silence before he blasted the reveller for their lack of timing.
He exclaimed: “You made me come in the wrong place.
“Can you stop doing the lyrics to the song, then I don’t get it wrong.”
The feed then cut to a close shot of Robbie as his facial expression suggested that he was not too happy with the party-goer.
Before he continued with his performance, he asked: “Now, okay?”
However, it was not all serious as the 18-time BRIT Award-winning artist launched into a chant of ‘Aussie, Aussie, Aussie,’ which the audience seemed to love.
He impressed the assembled crowd with an eight song set which featured more of his biggest hits such as Better Man, Feel and Angels.
The gig also included a surprise rendition of John Farnham‘s classic track, You’re The Voice.

However, he couldn’t help but promote his new movie mid-set, where he is depicted in the form of a computer generated performing monkey.
Robbie joked: “Some critics are calling it the movie of the century! Not my words, except they are because I just made that up.”
Adding: “Go watch my movie, it’s full of drugs and sex; I’ve got my own biopic, I’m not even dead.”
