Robbie Williams spent Christmas feeding the homeless in LA at the Union Rescue Mission soup kitchen.
‘If it’s better to give than to receive, then this is the most satisfying way to spend Christmas,’ Robbie’s chef pal Raymond Terry told the Daily Star.
‘Robbie does an awful lot of charity work. And this is really close to his heart.’
When he's not dishing out food, the singer is also reportedly working on a comeback album for 2008.
Robbie, 33, is said to be jealous of his former bandmates' reunion - despite him not taking part.
‘Things haven't been going that well for Robbie recently and he's been having a bit of a break from recording,’ says a friend.
‘His last album, Rudebox, was panned by critics, which was made worse by the fact Take That are doing so well without him. Robbie has now decided enough is enough and it's time to reclaim his crown.
'He is working on new material and he reckons this is the best stuff he has ever come up with. There could even be another hit like Angels.’
