HE’S had huge success in the music industry for over three decades – but pop star Robbie Williams has now revealed a very surprising career move.
After selling millions of albums around the world, the former Take That star, 49, is taking up a career as a cartoonist.

Robbie has started inking doodles for a new project with a working title of Robart, or “drawing things”.
One of the pieces show a weight loss champ winning the Ozempics, named after the weight-loss injections.
A further two drawings depict men on the toilet.
This isn’t the first time that he has swapped the microphone for an easel.
Back in 2011, he made Jackson Pollock-inspired paintings and last year, he exhibited his abstracts at Sotheby’s in Dubai, where one of his paintings sold for £40,000.
Robbie and his creative partner, Ed Godrich presented an exhibition of their black-and-white paintings that featured work from notable artists including Jean-Michel Basquiat, Grayson Perry and Damien Hirst.
Robbie and Ed displayed 14 pieces at the exhibition, with the duo creating the paintings while listening to music, often Annie Mac’s DJ sets in their Los Angeles studio.
Speaking to The Sun last month, Robbie revealed he had swapped drugs and booze for testosterone to treat his depression – although coming off that had halted his sex life with wife Ayda.

Robbie said: “Everyone knows there’s no sex after marriage.”
Ayda, 43, said: “Intimacy is the important, meaningful side of love. We’re happy.”
In a podcast last year, she joked that sex between them was “completely dead”.
She grimaced: “I really panicked Rob would be mad. I’d actually forgotten about the interview, and then it came out weeks later — totally out of context, looking terrible — and I woke up to concerned texts from friends asking if I was OK about my sexless marriage!”
The former Take That star interjected: “I didn’t give a s***.”
The truth is that the pair — like most married couples — would, frankly, rather watch Netflix.
Rob said: “No sex in a marriage is only a problem if you’re on different pages; if one person wants it, and the other doesn’t; if you have different expectations or requirements.
“But really, everyone knows there is no sex after marriage. That’s just the way it is. I was on testosterone for a while but, because I’m an addict, that had to stop. I got these massive square shoulders and started to look like a doorman. It wasn’t a good look.
“But the sex we had when I was on testosterone was incredible; it was all the time. We were insatiable. It goes to show how into each other we really are, though, because when I was on it, we couldn’t take our hands off each other.
“I miss that. That was a fun period. Sometimes now, though, Ayda will turn to me on the sofa and say, ‘We should do sex,’ and I’m sitting there eating a tangerine and just sort of shrug. So, ya know, sometimes we try.”
