PICTURED: Robin Thicke seen for first time after pulling out from events honouring late father Alan
Robin Thicke was spotted out in Los Angeles on Saturday, just one day after pulling out of two events honouring his late father Alan Thicke.
The 39-year-old singer appeared in good spirits as he took in some fresh air during a stroll.
Robin pulled out from attending Friday night's NHL100 Gala tribute, and also backed out from the NHL All-Star Celebrity Shootout on Saturday, according to TMZ.

This comes after his custody battle with his former wife Paula Patton has taken an ugly turn with claims of abuse.
Robin was spotted Saturday as fire fighters sawed a tree that appeared to have fallen on the sidewalk.

The hitmaker was nowhere to be seen during the tribute held at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles. Instead, family friend and hockey star Wayne Gretzky replaced Robin to honour the late Growing Pains actor.
Alan died last month after suffering a heart attack while playing hockey with his 19-year-old son Carter.
Last week it was revealed that Robin was to give some 'special heartfelt remarks' about his father and introduce singer Jon Ondrasik's performance which will remember some of the former NHL legends who have died.

However, it comes at a difficult time for the pop star as he has been slapped with a restraining order and must stay at least 100 yards away from Paula Patton - whom he divorced in 2015 - their six-year-old son Julian, and Paula's mother Joyce Patton, after Paula, 41, claimed he had punched and kicked her during their marriage and recently stood outside her mom's house for two hours demanding to see the youngster.
A source told People: 'Paula very much wanted to keep this within the family, as she believes that was in Julian's best interest.
'However, she has to fight back to protect her son. As a mother, it's one thing to stay quiet if you're the victim of abuse, but once that extends to your child, you have to speak up.'
Patton was granted custody of Julian Thursday after her mother had to call police when her ex Thicke showed up and demanded to see their child earlier this month.
