Robbie Williams: Fame 'intoxicating but isolating'
Singer Robbie Williams has Said fame " should come with a health warning" as he gears up for a homecoming gig.
The Star , who has had a string of hits since joining Take That at 16 years old in 1990, returns to his native Stoke-on-Trent later for the one-off concert.
About 20,000 fans are expected to welcome him at Port Vale FC's stadium.
Reflecting on his 30-year career, Williams Said celebrity could be an " intoxicating" but " isolating" experience, especially when young.
During an interview on Radio 4 's Today programme with BBC media editor Amol Rajan , The Angels singer, 48, Said his life had been " incredible" since he became a teenage pin-up.
" I'm glad it happened to me when it did because there was Nothing Else happening to me, " He Said .
But he warned that " extreme fame" was like an illness and " should come with a government health warning" particularly for younger people.
" I do think you should know who you are and what you are, " He Said .
" It's something that isolates you and makes you feel weird.
" Everything that happens outside of your own body, with people looking at you and behaving in a certain way, makes you feels a certain way.
" If you're not that au fait with Feeling Good about yourself it can have a severe reaction, especially if you're not Old Enough to cope with it. "
Williams - a lifelong Port Vale Fan - Said his homecoming gig was " written in the stars" after the side won promotion a week Ago - at Wembley.
" The Stage is basically opposite The Directors ' box and that's basically where I sat as A Kid , " He Said .
Williams Said he was confident the gig would be " absolutely amazing" but confessed he had feelings of trepidation.
" I don't know how Stoke's changed really. I've got a Gilded Cage that I arrive and leave in. But out of The Window things look quite similar, " He Said .
" Where I'm from, you're not allowed to have a Big Head .
" You're not allowed to get ideas above your station. And even though The Performance , the character I've played On Stage really is full of himself I'm not really - I'm Rob from Stoke.
" They say you stop growing The Day you get famous and I kind of get it, I'm like a 16-year-old inside a 48-year-old. "
