Robbie Williams has delayed the release of his new album until next year in an attempt to avoid Taylor Swift. ‌

BRITPOP was supposed to drop on October 8 but has now been pushed back by four months. ‌

Fans who pre-ordered LP received a warning message: “Due to scheduling changes, BRITPOP will now be released on February 6, 2026. ‌

"Your order will ship closer to that date. Sorry for the wait — we promise it’ll be worth it!”

That ‘scheduling’ could have something to do with Taylor Swift who is releasing her new LP The Life Of A Showgirl a week before.
