Pop superstar Robbie Williams has vowed to remain an Oasis fan, even though he represents "everything they detest". The singer forged a short-lived friendship with Oasis - fronted by brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher - in the mid-90s. However, he has since publicly fallen out with the band.

Williams says, "I'm not their kind of person. I'm the old-time musical, I'm the end of the pier, I'm Norman Wisdom, I'm big show tunes. I'm everything they detest.

"I'm a huge fan of Oasis - of what they were anyway - and what they meant to me. They were very important in my life."
