Drug lover: Robbie Williams says weed is "lovely"

Robbie Williams has attributed his weight gain last year to a taste for cannabis, saying his tendency to binge eat after smoking weed turned him back into the 'Blobby Williams' of yore.

"Have a look at [me] last year. Yep. Year of the Munchie 2009," he told UK's Radio Times.

"Weed, it’s such a lovely drug. It is such a lovely drug. But it doesn’t mix well with me – at all.

"It doesn’t take much to trigger – I mean, I’ll get psychosis from having this cup of tea! Seriously. The caffeine in that is enough. A cup of tea will make me feel like s***. But it’s just a shame about weed, because I did love it."

Robbie has famously battled addiction to cocaine and prescription drugs, and has been rehab-free since 2007.
