“All the images in my 2024 Official Licensing Calendar were taken by Robin Williams on a wonderfully relaxing cruise earlier in the year,” said Sir Cliff.
“I love cruises. It allows me to relax and gather new strength, sometimes to prepare for new projects and above all to connect with friends who accompany me on the ship.”
“It was fun making this calendar and I was able to be creative while capturing the images,” he continued. “I’m happy with the result, I’m not on stage or in the studio, and I hope you like it too.”
Last year, the singer disappointed fans when he announced that he was breaking with tradition by not undressing for his calendars in the future.
Fans had got used to him posing topless like he did in a swimming pool in 2022.
“I guess I took my last topless photo for my annual calendar… it’s time to exit Chippendales Market with dignity,” he said.
For the November photo, the singer is also seen on deck in a colorful top and red pants

This didn’t impact sales, however, as pre-orders went through the roof. Cliff’s fans obviously love him both clothed and undressed!’ an insider told The Mirror last year.
According to his website, the crooner released his first calendar in 1979 and has sold more than 1.5 million copies in total.
Alongside Sir Cliff, Elvis Presley’s calendar is also more popular than that of modern artists including Harry Styles, Taylor Swift and Kylie Minogue.
According to Calendar Club, the late king of rock ‘n’ roll was second only to Sir Cliff in sales of music calendars.
