'I love him but this is disappointing': Robbie Williams faces backlash over 'Qatar World Cup gig' amid human rights row

Robbie Williams has come under fire after it was announced he will be performing in Qatar during the World Cup.

The decision by FIFA to hold the World Cup in Qatar has been surrounded by controversy – particularly in relation to migrant workers and the LGBTQ+ community.

The singer, 48, who previously performed at the opening ceremony of the 2018 World Cup in Russia, was unveiled as one of the music acts set to play at the Qatar Live concerts during a press conference in Doha.

Robbie is set to play at Doha Golf Club on December 8, alongside Maroon 5 and Post Malone, who were also reported to be playing gigs that coincide with the 2022 FIFA World Cup.
