Robbie Williams planning to get a WIG as he admits he’s going bald weeks after claiming fat jabs were ‘making him blind’
ROBBIE Williams has revealed he’s planning to get a WIG as he admits he’s going bald – weeks after claiming fat jabs were ‘making him blind’.
The Angels singer, 51, has always been something of an open book, and during his latest appearance on a popular podcast, he opened up about his hair woes.
Robbie, who is sporting a salt and pepper stylish spiked hair do at the moment, said: “I’m losing my hair… This is all powder and scaffolding now.
“I’m thinking about getting one of them hair systems.”
He continued on the Games Gone: The Steve Bracknall Podcast: “So I’m a pop star. That’s what I do for a living, you know…you’re supposed to have some sort of looks and some sort of hair.
“I’ve got powder in. That’s why it looks alright now. But it’s on its way out. And I’m thinking about getting one of them hair systems.

“Have you seen the hair systems? You go to a guy and he sort of shaves it here, and then you get a wig that’s shaped for that bit.
“And then you get some, um… glue. And then you glue it on and it stays on for a couple of weeks, but you have to get it fixed.”
Robbie’s latest admission comes after he told The Sun he feared fat jabs were making him blind.
He said: “I was quite an early adopter of the jabs but what I’m also noticing is that my eyesight’s not very good.
“It’s been blurry for a while now, and it’s only getting worse. I don’t believe it’s age; I believe it’s the jabs.
“Everybody’s experiencing it, because I’ll say to people, ‘Blurry, right?’. And they go, ‘Oh s**t, that the thing?’.
“Of course it’s worrying and by being honest today, obviously I want to warn people reading this of the potential risks, to make sure they do their research.
“But seriously, I’m that sick I’d probably stay on it until the sight in one eye has completely gone.”
Last year a US study found patients using some fat jabs for Type 2 diabetes were four times more likely to be diagnosed with non-arteritic anterior ischemic optic neuropathy (NAION) — a lack of blood flow to the optic nerve which may lead to sight loss.
Meanwhile, the UK’s Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency has received 296 reports of eye disorders thought to be linked to Mounjaro.
Of those, 164 specifically claimed the drug had damaged their vision.
But scientists have not agreed that the medicines actually cause the condition — or by how much they increase the risk.
