Robbie Williams is nominated in the "Best International Male Rock/Pop" category for the German Echo Award along with Bob Dylan, Justin Timberlake, Jack Johnson and Yusuf Islam (Cat Stevens).

Female artists nominated include Shakira, Pink, Nelly Furtado, Katie Melua and Kelly Clarkson. Amongst the nominees for Best International Band are The Beatles, Depeche Mode, Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Mark Knopfler and the Pussycat Dolls.

The Echo Music Awards, the German equivalent of the US Grammy and the UK Brit Awards will be held on the 25th March 2007 in Berlin. The awards are decided by a jury and are based on sales figures from 2006.

Robbie has won the this Award for the last 5 years. So let's keep our fingers crossed that he makes it six in a row.

Hopefully Robbie will put in an appearance at this years show (althought I doubt it), as the last time he bothered was in 2003. Here are a couple of videos of his performance last time around:
