ROBBIE WILLIAMS KICKED OFF HIS EUROPEAN TOUR AT MURRAYFIELD STADIUM LAST NIGHT WITH GLASGOW POPSTAR MICHELLE MCMANUS JOINING THE SINGER ON STAGE FOR A DUET OF RELIGHT MY FIRE. 17:56, 01 Jun

2025 Robbie Williams fans were left stunned last night when Glasgow pop star Michelle McManus made a special appearance on stage alongside the singer as the Rock DJ hitmaker kicked off his

Britpop tour at Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium last night. The Baillieston born singer, who formerly won Pop Idol in 2003, joined her long time pal Robbie on stage at the capital,

singing to crowds of 70,000 as the pair performed a duet of Relight My Fire. Their joint rendition of the track, which was famously covered by Take That in 1993, delighted fans who rose to

their fans in a standing ovation. Robbie's setlist yesterday evening featured all of his most famous tracks including She's The One, Feel, Angels and Let Me Entertain You in what

was an unforgettable night for his loyal fanbase. Ahead of her performance last night, Michelle, 45, confessed she was feeling more nervous about singing in front of Robbie than she was when

she performed for the Pope. She said: “My happy place is when I sing, so the singing part is not the problem. "The nervous part is singing to Robbie Williams in front of 70,000 people.

Williams.” It was reported back in March that Robbie, 51, had surprised Michelle with an invitation to sing with him during her BBC Scotland Radio show. As their interview came to an end,

Robbie unexpectedly asked: “Would you like to come and sing with me in Edinburgh?” Michelle was left stunned by his proposal as she responded: “Sorry… What? What was that?” She was quick to

take him up on his offer as she emotionally added: “Yes, I’m saying yes—I would love that. You are amazing. And you are an incredible human being. I meant every word I said before this even

came up.” Following their joint performance, Michelle shared a snap of the moment on her Instagram Stories, showing her and Robbie singing together on stage. She simply captioned it: “This

diva though.” Robbie also shared his own social media post with several snaps from his performance throughout the evening. The main snap showed the singer dangling upside down above the

crowds as he captioned the post: “Scotland – I love you. That was an incredible opening night. Until next time. Rob x” _JOIN THE_ _DAILY RECORD'S WHATSAPP COMMUNITY HERE _A_ND GET THE
