Robbie Williams is not about to Come Undone over his hilarious New Year's Eve hand sanitiser incident. The 'Party Like a Russian' singer became the butt of some festive jokes during his New Year's Eve concert special leading up to midnight, when he was filmed dousing his hands in sanitiser after giving fives to fans.

Can anyone really blame Robbie for putting his faith in trusty hand sanitiser? Through it all, if offers him protection from too much love and affection.

Anyway, Robbie is typical Robbie in a hilarious new Instagram video shared by his wife Ayda Field - in which he keeps sanitiser handy even when wishing his own family a Happy New Year.

FYI, the original hand sanitiser bit wasn't a random gaffe - it's a gag Robbie frequently and intentionally pulls during his live shows as a joke. Not feeling so smug now, are we?

All in all, Robbie definitely had a better New Year's Eve than, say, Mariah Carey, whose own live TV concert went wrong in more ways than a little hand sanitiser could ever fix.

2017 is sure to be a big year for Robbie, with a 'Heavy Entertainment Show Tour' set to kick off this summer in Manchester and Glastonbury Festival rumours still swirling.

Then there's talk of a reunion with Take That in the not-so-distant future too. It's a good time to be a Robbie fan.
