Robbie Williams befriends David Icke

Robbie Williams has bonded with former TV presenter David Icke over the topic of aliens, say reports.

According to The Sun, the pair met in a California restaurant and have hooked up several times since.

"David happened to be in a restaurant at the same time as Robbie. Rob recognised him and introduced himself," said a source.

"They had a good laugh together and have been meeting up since. It’s an odd acquaintance, to say the least."

Icke became famous in the '80s after he appeared on Terry Wogan's chat show and claimed he was the son of God.

He has also promoted the theory that the world is ruled by a group called the Illuminati that are part reptilian. Icke has claimed world figures such as the Queen, George Bush and Tony Blair are disguised reptiles.
