Robbie Williams: 'When I'm doing promo I just don't eat'

Hitmaker Robbie Williams has confessed that when he has promotional things to do for his music career, instead of hitting the gym and adopting a new fitness regime he just 'stops eating'. 

Speaking to Australian radio station Mix 94.5 recently, the 'Candy' superstar explained that he likes to treat himself with food so just tries to not eat junk when he has photo sessions on the horizon:

"My secret is not eating. Christmas was just a vast array of chocolate and cake and sugar and carbohydrates. I knew I was doing promo in Australia and I did a rather unhealthy thing of not eating. My regime so far year is to have a big breakfast and then two protein shakes for the rest of the day."

"My life used to be about sex, drugs and rock and now and it's now about cake. When I'm not on tour, I'm at home eating crisps and cake and watching reality TV, and if I do it for too long without doing an album I end up wearing an elasticated waist band or a kaftan as I go really fat and I grow a beard and look like a killer."

He added: "So I have to release an album to stop me being morbidly obese."
