Williams pulls tooth competition

British pop star Robbie Williams has scrapped an odd internet competition in which fans fight for his old tooth.

The Angels hitmaker pulled the venture after lack of interest, and admitted the mad molar idea was a mistake.

In a forlorn message on his site the singer said: "Thanks for your great response to win my tooth.

"I always thought it was a bit gross and a weird idea but it was worth a try.

"There weren't enough 'yeses' to run a competition, so I'll hold on to it and with any luck the tooth fairy will come to visit one night."
