Michelle McManus Joins Robbie Williams for 70,000-Strong Edinburgh Concert

Scottish singer Michelle McManus joined longtime friend Robbie Williams on stage at Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium, performing a duet of "Relight My Fire" in front of a 70,000-strong crowd during the opening night of his Britpop tour. The surprise invitation came during a BBC Scotland radio interview earlier in the year, where Williams asked McManus if she would perform with him, to which she emotionally accepted. Despite her extensive experience, including performing for the Pope and at the Commonwealth Games, McManus admitted she was more nervous singing in front of Williams than any other audience. Their electric performance delighted fans, who gave a standing ovation, and the concert featured many of Williams's biggest hits like "Angels" and "Let Me Entertain You." Both artists shared their appreciation on social media, with Williams expressing his love for Scotland and fans praising the show. This collaboration marked a significant and emotional milestone for McManus, 22 years after winning Pop Idol.
