- Oasis is back
- But they are not doing interviews together
- THIS is why, and it makes sense to us
The Big Reveal: Why Silence is Golden for the Gallaghers
In a world where celebrities are constantly under the microscope, Liam Gallagher drops a bombshell on X, explaining the duo's decision to shy away from interviews.
Liam, 52, revealed on X on Thursday that the brothers "don't want to do interviews coz we're scared of the media asking us intrusive questions and trying to pick holes in our relationship", Liam admits, highlighting the brothers' cautious approach as they navigate their relationship in the public eye.
It's a rare glimpse into the vulnerability of rock's most notorious siblings, whose feud famously led to Oasis's split in 2009.
The Gallagher feud, which reached its boiling point with a backstage brawl at the Rock en Seine festival in France, has been the stuff of legend.
Fast forward to 2023, and the brothers are set to reunite on stage at Cardiff's Principality Stadium on July 4, marking their first UK show together since the split. With 19 UK and Ireland dates selling out, including two extra Wembley shows, the Oasis reunion tour is the hottest ticket in town!
Ticket Turmoil: Fans Fume Over Sky-High Prices
The excitement, however, has been tinged with controversy. The release of tickets saw prices skyrocketing from £148 to £355 due to "unprecedented demand," sparking outrage among fans and catching the attention of the UK's competition watchdog. The debate over dynamic pricing has put the spotlight on the issue of fair ticketing practices, with Ticketmaster clarifying that prices are set by the "event organiser."
Amidst the tour frenzy, Liam Gallagher faced criticism over his performance at Wembley Stadium, with some fans branding it "terrible." Unfazed, Liam hit back, boasting of his "angelic tones" and dismissing the critics as "imposters." It's a classic Gallagher move, showcasing the brothers' defiance in the face of criticism.
Last month the younger Gallagher attacked critics of his vocals after performing in front of a packed, 96,000-strong Wembley Stadium ahead of the heavyweight title fight between Anthony Joshua and Daniel Dubois.
Liam walked on to a massive cheer and said "yes Wembley vibes in the air," before launching into "Rock 'N' Roll Star", "Supersonic" and "Cigarettes & Alcohol."
But some fans called it "terrible", prompting Liam to claim he had sung in "angelic tones" and accused critics of being "imposters" rather than fans.
