Robbie Williams reunites all the members of Five for the first time in 25 years

Robbie Williams welcomed to the stage one of the biggest boybands of the late 90s, who hadn’t all be on stage together in decades.

Robbie Williams has reunited all the members of the British boyband Five for the first time in a whopping 25 years.

The 90s pop group came together to perform onstage with Williams at his Stadium show at Wembley in London over the weekend.

At the Emirates Stadium, the ’90s boy band, comprised of Ritchie Neville, Scott Robinson, Sean Conlon, Abz Love, and J Brown, performed their 1995 hit Keep On Movin’.

Williams started to sing the song himself before telling the sold out crowd: “I don’t remember the words to this next bit. I wonder if anybody can help me out. Ladies and gentlemen, the first time they’ve been seen on stage for 25 years. My mates. Five!”

The shows mark their first full tour together as a complete line-up since their early 2000s split.

“Reconnecting as a 5 has been special. We’re ready. It’s time,” said Robinson.

“Wow, what an honour to be asked by Robbie Williams to join him on stage at his London stadium show. Rob has been such a big supporter of ours, from the early days through to the comeback, so when he reached out to ask whether we’d come out on stage for his performance of Keep On Movin’, it was the EASIEST yes,” the band later told fans on social media.

They added: “To get to share that moment with Robbie in front of 60k people was crazy … definitely a version of Keep On Movin’ we’ll never forget.”

The surprise appearance was more than a one-off — Five officially announced their 2025 Keep On Movin’ UK tour, a 25-date arena run kicking off October 29 in Cardiff, UK.

Williams’ latest tour follows the release of his biopic, Better Man, which became one of the biggest cinematic flops ever when it was released last December.

Despite a warm reception from reviewers, the film – produced for a whopping $179 million – failed to make an impression upon its release.

“Robbie Williams played by a digitally animated chimpanzee [is] an outlandish choice. For anyone complaining that the industry plays it too safe, this is your movie,” David A. Gross, who runs the movie consulting firm Franchise Entertainment Research, told Variety. “The risk-taking is excellent, but $110 million is not realistic for the genre and for this musical artist. $25 to $30 million would have made more sense.”
