Robbie Williams will spend Christmas feeding the homeless in Los Angeles.
The 33-year-old singer has volunteered to spend today (24.12.07), Christmas Day (25.12.07) and Boxing Day (26.12.07) serving festive food and performing carols for the Union Rescue Mission charity at America's largest soup kitchen in the 'Skid Row' area of the city after the charity's work "moved him to tears".
Chef Raymond Terry, who first took Robbie to the shelter on San Pedro Street, told Britain's Daily Star newspaper: "If it's better to give than to receive, then this is the most satisfying way to spend Christmas.
"Robbie does an awful lot of charity work. And this is really close to his heart. Everybody I've taken to 'Skid Row' is moved to tears."
Robbie is reportedly planning to perform Christmas carols for everyone at the shelter after serving them food.
One of the homeless men at the centre said: "Most of the guys over here don't really know who Robbie is.
"But there's a lot of excitement in the air, because they've been told he is a big pop star in Europe."
