Robbie Williams has performed his first full concert for three years and shocked fans by backing cocky X Factor contestants the Grimes twins to win the show.

The former Take That singer performed to a sell-out crowd to open this year's BBC Electric Proms.

Williams opened the show at north London's trendy Roundhouse venue with new single Bodies and said: "You nearly made me cry then, but then I realised it's not The X Factor."

Williams, who appeared on the ITV1 show earlier this month, revealed he was a fan of twins John and Edward Grimes.

"Go for the twins," he told the crowd, who responded with deafening boos.

But he insisted: "John and Edward all the way."

The gig was watched by celebrities including radio DJ Fearne Cotton and singer Will Young.

Later the cheeky singer appeared to hold back tears as he revealed his hit Feel was his auntie's favourite song, saying: "I'm sure she's looking down now."

But he then deadpanned: "She's not dead - she's just condescending!"

Tuesday's performance also set a world record for the most simultaneous cinematic screenings of a live concert. The show was screened in more than 250 cinemas across 23 countries, meaning ten s of thousands of the singer's fans across Europe watched the show as it happened.

woo hoo!! Robbie talks sense :D

oh god.
i would of thought he would want olly to win

He backed Freddie and David in BB10 and both were disasters. I'm not surprised he backs John & Edward, such bad taste in Reality TV contestants.

if you take the comment in context he is backing them cos he says reality tv is killing off proper acts (name of his new album also says this) cos what is missing from that article is the bit he said about sinking the boat (meaning the reality tv boat)

Well he's obviously back on drugs again.

lemonjam did you listen to the whole show and the interview before hand? cos as i said there bits missing from that article he wants people to back them cos it could be the thing that finally sinks the reality boat as he put it so the market is no longer saturated with tripe instead of real artists (oh and he isnt back on drugs)

I lol'd when he came out with it

"Don't you get it? SINK THE BOAT! SINK THE BOAT!" :joker:

Robbie :nono: i thought i liked him, but this is awful news

*bangs head against the wall* why is noone listening to rob's fans who are telling you the reasoning behind it instead of taking all the muppet media say as all that said

haha,, go robbie!!!
we love you so much!!
even moreee now!! :D

I detect a hint of sarcasm in his comments.

Gat a Job Hippy!

Eh the other day he said him and Take That were entering into the Winter Olympics as a 5 man bobsleigh team. I wouldn't believe everything Rob says,it is is him :P

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I thought that was true :sad:

Hahahaha!!!!
