Robbie Williams' New Year’s Eve Performance in Sydney

Renowned musician Robbie Williams recently made waves during his New Year’s Eve performance in Sydney. As the headline act for the night, he entertained the audience right up until the massive fireworks display at midnight.

Williams used this opportunity not only to perform hit songs but also to promote his upcoming biopic titled "Better Man," which is directed by Australian filmmaker Michael Gracey. The film has generated significant buzz and has already received six nominations for the 2025 AACTA awards, including Best Film and Best Director. Jonno Davies, who portrays Robbie Williams in the movie, has also been nominated for Best Lead Actor.

The film has further achieved recognition with a Golden Globe nomination for Best Original Song and is currently short-listed for an Oscar nomination in the same category.

Performance Highlights

During his energetic set, Williams performed classics like "Let Me Entertain You" and "Land of 1000 Dances." However, a humorous moment occurred when he started singing "Me and My Monkey." As the enthusiastic crowd began to sing along, Williams playfully paused and addressed an audience member.

"You made me come in, in the wrong place!" he jokingly told the fan, adding, "Can you stop doing the lyrics to the song, then I don’t get it wrong?" After this light-hearted interaction, he confidently continued with the performance as if nothing had happened.

Closing Thoughts

Robbie Williams’ performance was not just about the music; it was also an entertaining way to ring in the new year while promoting his artistic endeavors. His charm and quick wit helped make the night memorable for both him and the audience.
