When you’re one of the biggest European pop stars of all time, what more can you do to establish yourself as an icon in your home country? Robbie Williams decided the best way to do so was to make a poker site dedicated…to himself.

From CardPlayer Europe:

The story says, “former drug addict Robbie Williams has enraged fans once again by launching an online poker site. It added, “Anti-gambling campaigners also slated the Take That singer for launching the website claiming the 37-year-old would be raking in the cash from vulnerable addicts.

For someone who has battled alcoholism and substance abuse for a considerable portion of their career, being the face of an online poker room may not have been the greatest idea in the world.

How insensitive do you think this poker room is to Robbie’s fans that have struggled with addictions of their own?
