EXCLUSIVE: Take That heart-throbs Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen are gearing up to conquer Cannes on Wednesday, the first time they’ve visited during the film festival. Let’s Pray that the sun will Shine and it will be their Greatest Day. Fans of the (now middle-aged) boy band will know that Pray, Shine and Greatest Day are amongst the group’s biggest hits.

Gary Barlow was "scared" of drugs. The Take That frontman hit a career low when he was just 29 years old and he was left without a record deal, and although he resorted to binge eating, he insisted he never turned to illegal substances because his former bandmate Robbie Williams' own experiences had acted as a deterrent.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Specifically, last Christmas. With a sense of crushing familiarity, the path to December 25 is once again paved with eggshells thanks to Covid. Parties cancelled, dinners un-booked, nights in encouraged by those at the top, a possible January lockdown lurking menacingly round the corner – ’tis the season to be gloomy.

Champion Ella Rothwell has finally been knocked out of the competition. During night four of Walk the Line, newcomer Nadiah Adu-Gyamfi stunned the judges and audience alike and rightfully took her place on the throne. She will now move forward in the competition with only two episodes standing between her and the £500,000 grand prize.

It may come as a surprise to discover that, until now, Gary Barlow had never even considered releasing a Christmas album. There is little the singer, who celebrated his 50th birthday in January, has not tried in the three decades since Take That hit the big time. But until Christmas...

Dressed in a cherry-red suit and accompanied by six sequinned showgirls complete with burlesque feathered fans, the greatest showman of British talent-show pop and cringe dad dancing, Gary Barlow, appears on stage as if magicked out of thin air. A brass band launches into the showtune-inspired Who’s Driving This Thing and the Take That singer is off, tap dancing down the stairs, clicking his fingers and doing his best impression of an exuberant music hall emcee.

Gary Barlow is the latest star to embrace the festive album concept with the release of The Dream Of Christmas (Polydor). The Music Week cover star is set for a big Top 5 album in the busy Q4 period. You can read Gary Barlow’s label and management team on the project here.

Once upon a time, artists releasing Christmas albums was very much a US thing. It started the pre-rock era, when Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Ella Fitzgerald and Jim Reeves were the big hitters, and then through the generations everyone was at it – Elvis Presley, Phil Spector, Dolly Parton, Destiny’s Child, Christina Aguilera onwards.

Gary Barlow says Sir Paul McCartney taught him to keep writing songs to find a hit. The Take That star is responsible for chart toppers like 'Everything Changes', 'Back For Good' and 'Greatest Day' and he has revealed that from conversations with McCartney, 79, he learned that the key to successful song writing is perseverance.
