He english hawthorn protest that he and his comrade are "deuce totally unlike people and the sooner people realize that the less we can go on approximately it", merely Liam Gallagher and his brother Noel have at least ane thing in common: they both love f***ing asterisks. In an expletive ridden interview with the Times this weekend, the Oasis frontman laid into an array of targets, including Wayne Rooney and "modern bands", as well as calling fans of Coldplay and Radiohead "boring and ugly".
When asked whether his newfound love of "running, not jogging" was proof that he is mellowing with age, Gallagher mused: "Yeah, I've mellowed, but not in the sense of liking Radiohead or Coldplay ..." He went on to reason, "I don't hatred them, I don't like they had accidents. I think their fans are boring and ugly and don't look like they're having a good fourth dimension". Gallagher went on to compare modern bands to "Topman music".
His issue with Wayne Rooney is that he represents the genial of modern footballer wHO thinks aught of "disbursement 100 grand on f***ing Rolexes". He also says he'd make to be "well and truly f***ing desperate" to imitate the Manchester United striker's decision to sell his marriage photographs to OK magazine.
The 35-year-old singer was more upbeat about embracing a fitter lifestyle, which includes linear ten miles in an hour and a half, and has cut down on liquor and "the other stuff" because it wrecks his ability to sing by rights. In typically trenchant fashion, he claims this is because when his voice is spoiled "it's a bit punter than Pete Doherty's".
The lengthy interview does show up that Gallagher's lifestyle has mellowed at least. The piece covers Gallagher's land retreat in the conservative Oxfordshire town of Henley-on-Thames - "This lady walked past, she said, 'You're the coolest person I've seen in Henley since George Harrison.'" - and that he doesn't see why his son Gene shouldn't go to secret school as much as "some banker's son". The interview ends with Gallagher departing to take his son to the cinema, or as he puts it: "I'm off to f****** 'ave it with Kung Fu Panda."
