Joey McIntyre and his new friend Robbie Williams

It seems that Joey has developed a friendship with Robbie Williams. Remember in that interview with Lorraine from last month, Joey said that Robbie Williams is a fan, and he hopes he promotes the tour. Well since then, Joey has been responding to a few of Robbie's posts. Robbie does daily polls such as "which song represents the 90s the best?" 

In this post the choices were "Praise You" by Fatboy Slim vs "Livin’ La Vida Loca" by Ricky Martin and Joey responded: 

Oh buddy.

To all of us in the comment section,

our friend Robbie lent his ear for an hour and half. I could go on and on.

In the spirit of Robbie’s gracious open heart I will share that I texted him today and said

“How’s my new buddy” and immediately regretted.

New poll: did I blow it?

Yes or no?

Livin La Vida Loca.

Then Robbie posted a photo of him and Joey together saying they had a 3 hour "play date" and said that Joey has "All the qualities I like in a person."



Robbie recently started something he has called the "cuddle club", which I think is him recruiting people to lift up other men in the community. Here's Robbie's message he wrote to John Parr

Hey John, just dropping by to say I’ve been hearing St. Elmo's Fire played a lot over the last 18 months. It never fails to lift my spirit. Full of hope and power. Thank you for giving us this song. I hope you’re well and experiencing joy and peace. Just a random cuddle from me. A few people should be digitally arriving with me. We are the cuddle club. Much love RW x


Joey liked the idea, and he asked Robbie if he was doing it right his stories: 

Robbie recently posted

"It has been brought to my attention that I have been spelling my new best friend’s name wrong. My new best friend is, of course, Josef macandtires from The New Kids On The Block. Please join me below with your miss misspellings of his name too."

His daily post was "Which film would be the most entertaining E.T. or Back To The Future"?

Joey's response was: 

This match up is obscene. Could be the final!

ET will win but I have to vote for

BACK TO THE FUTURE

Yours truly,

Jowee macuntire

Then just this morning, Robbie posted a video of him and Joey together at the piano singing "Tomorrow" from Annie! 



I wonder if this means they are working on music together? 

Anyway, check out more of Robbie's posts here. Joey has replied to about half of the ones from the past month or so!
