HollywoodNews.com: When he was younger, Coldplay front man Chris Martin was such a big fan of the British by band Take That made him question his sexuality.

“U2 and five handsome, strapping men from Stoke and Manchester. I’m not afraid to admit it, they made me ask the question ‘Am I gay?’” Martin said earlier this week at The Q Awards in London.

Martin, who is married to Gwyneth Paltrow, made the remark while presenting a trophy for songwriting to Gary Barlow, a member of Take That.

Martin rarely speaks about Paltrow, the mother of his two children, publicly and he joked on The Ellen DeGeneres Show this week that the Oscar winner has “been a great beard for me now, for 10 years.”

Robbie, 36, has rejoined the group after he quit 15 years ago. Williams and bandmates Gary Barlow, Mark Owen, Jason Orange and Howard Donald reportedly filmed the video for their new single ‘The Flood’ in two days.

In the video, the boys are seen in a rowing boat on a lake. An onlooker told British newspaper The Sun: “They were having a great time, it was just five friends having a laugh. “Robbie and the boys clearly got on very well. It was just like old times. They were mucking about and having fun.”

The source added: “When they finished filming on the first day Robbie decided he needed to cool off so he jumped straight into the lake and had a little swim. “No one else had the guts to join him – it was freezing!”

HollywoodNews.com: Robbie Williams has reunited with the boy band that launched his music career. After a 15 year break the hugely successful solo singer has returned to Take That.

In a statement the group said: “The rumours are true… Take That: the original line-up, have written and recorded a new album for release later this year.” And the band will follow this with a huge stadium tour next summer, it has been reported.

Williams walked away from the hit-making group in 1995 at the height of their fame, before going on to forge a successful solo career with such hits as Angels, Millennium and Let Me Entertain You.

“I get embarrassingly excited when the five of us are in a room. It feels like coming home,” Williams said. “Getting the five of us to be in a room together, although always a dream, never actually seemed like becoming a reality,” he added. “Now the reality of the five of us making a record together feels like a dream.”

The 36 year-old will initially return for one year, the Daily Mail reports.
