Is calling people fat his new thing?
Maybe he's insecure about his own weight considering how skinny he has become

It seems to me that for the first handful of years Noel was out solo he took it pretty easy on Liam publicly. It wasn't until Liam started really going after Noel on Twitter, his looks (potato), his music (Leo Sayer), his family (Anais and Sara), and all while having his bags packed for a reunion, when Noel finally had enough. I'm sure Noel was just trying to stay quiet and move on, but Liam has finally poked him long and hard enough to get through his skin. Now he's going to get asked about it more and we're going to get answers like this. If the gloves weren't off already, they are now. I feel like we're finally seeing Noel stand up for himself. On the other hand, a more mature person with thicker skin probably still ignores it. But how long can someone stand idly by while an estranged family member talks shit about you? Whether you're on one side or the other you can say definitively that at the least both of them haven't been completely innocent here. Side note: doesn't this sound like the old Noel? I feel like I haven't heard him slag people off like this since the 90's. If Noel was this mature man who was trying to stay out of it, then why were him and his family baiting him? The reason he didn't go in on him is because Beady Eye weren't doing very well. It's all VERY different now Liam is bigger than Noel. So you're saying Noel feels threatened by Liam's success. Maybe. I doubt it. I think it's more the personal jabs pissing Noel off. Liam is not "bigger" than Noel. They're playing around the same size venues, selling around the same amount of records and get around the same amount of press.

Maybe he's insecure about his own weight considering how skinny he has become noel goes around calling people fat while he prob has a personal trainer sneak into his private gym to help him with his workouts. he def lifts low weights, prob high reps. probably also eating some sort of Macrobiotic diet approved by chris martin. liam is 46 and likes to have a drink session every now and again. hows he supposed to look? i bet if he quit he would be as skinny as noel. didnt liam say that noel has banned the booze in his dressing room? fair dos on that but dont act like you dont work at your figure and paint liam as some fat slob. noel even said himself in the past that he wouldnt go to a public gym b/c he thought it was undignified for people to see the guy that played knebworth working out in a public gym. liam? the guy runs out in public with a backpack full of weights. not a fuck given.

Think the problem people are having with Noel is he seems to be a complete shadow of his former self.Yes people grow older but his actual beliefs ,morals etc seemed to have gone which make the 90s noel a complete fake! His thoughts on thatcher ,politics ,life and music is bizarre and mind boggling ..he’s completely dismissing his oasis background at times and I think he was happy when Liam disappeared as he could just chuck the blame on him and when Beady eye came on the scene he started to panic as I think the truth would’ve come out about the split and Noel seems concerned ..so when Liam came back solo Noel flipped his coin to how he is now..Liam’s success will have pissed Noel off hence his comments about rewriting a persons persona yet he was happy to share a band with him for 20 years...the sole problem in this is his wife simple and Liam’s fires off at her and Noel’s turned ...

This must be one of his worst interviews ever? and by that I mean his answers. How many times will he talk about Jungle being the new and cool band? He's been talking about them for 5 years now. Open your mind and listen to other new stuff. there are plenty more good music out there today that is better than Jungle.

What's interesting here is that almost nobody is actually talking about the fucking music. I miss the times when there was speculation or discussion about upcoming tracks. Now it's just a mix of "Noel is a...", "yeah but Liam did...", "he's more succesfull than...", "x sold more copies than y". Does anyone still care about the music?

I think he's started to believe that if he turned up as a solo artist with Holy Mountain and Black Star Dancing without ever being in Oasis that he'd actually be successful.

We'd talk about his music more if he was putting out good songs and he didn't make himself sound like an angry doofus every time he did an interview.

read this earlier today. all that sniping and bad will between brothers made me sick. all the sniping in general from Noel, really. aside from the bit about couple new tracks from Sept EP sounding like the smiths and the roses - i should have just passed. this seems past irreparable harm stage in that sibling relationship. either that or they text each other privately and have a good laugh on us - but i don't think so.

If nothing else it's provided me with an evenings entertainment on Twitter. Can't beat a load of Scots pissed off and venting online.
Favourite so far:
' You've got to hand it to Noel - it takes some effort to have Liam Gallagher as a brother and still be the biggest nobhead in the family' 😂

Geez. The reactions on this thread are off the chart. It's a written account of a phone interview framed by an American journalist who is probably not familiar with English wit and humour. Regardless, we have no context for Noel's tone by reading it. If this were a video interview and we could see him smiling or doing that look to the side and smirk when he thinks that he has said something funny, we would probably be having a different discussion about how his jokes are not funny, instead of calling him an old, insecure, out of touch, Tory supporting crumudgen who hates Scotland and fat people. Personally, I've always taken what he says with a grain of salt, as he often contradicts himself. No need to get worked up over Noel trying to get you all worked up by being a gobshite in an interview, which he freely admits he does on purpose.

I stand corrected. That’s what I get for using wiki for reference.

Pretty sure there can't be any more on twitter slating him.

I don't understand Liam's strategy. He wanted Oasis back together and more recently Oasis songs in his film. Thats not gonna happen with all the nasty fighting on social media and in interviews. Driving a bigger wedge than prior. I don’t think Liam has a strategy. I think he is genuinely hurt and upset. This is just him lashing out. sometimes you gotta burn everything down to rebuild. At this point what’s he got to lose? What’s Noel going to do -not reform oasis? Liam went through a bunch of personal shit and Noel never seemed to extend any sort of olive branch. Granted a lot of that was Liam’s own doing, which he readily admits. But there is something calculated and cruel about noels behavior towards Liam. His own brother was spiraling and Noel couldn’t have cared less. It’s telling that bonehead and others were more genuinely concerned about him. Noel discarded Liam like a session musician or any drummer in oasis. Despite everything Liam has done he still comes off as the more sympathetic character in all this.

When you say around same amount, you mean Liam is selling out arenas. Noel isnt. Liam is selling out big outdoor gigs, Noel isnt. And when you say selling around same amount you mean Liam is selling more than Noel. Oh and Liams songs chart higher.

Yeah, Liam is smart enough to link a quote from 25 years ago to a disease that is more transmittable between homosexuals in a month celebrating homosexuality. How lucky he was that Noel just happened to say what he did in the exact same month. I think I may have just had a stroke trying to make sense of that. Funny, that was exactly my reaction to hearing Fort Knox

Noel's first solo album sold 600,00 copies in it's first year, double that of Liam's first solo album (as far as I can tell). Did Noel not just play Heaton Park? Did he not sell out his UK/Irish arena tour in 2015? Did Noel's first 3 album of not go #1? C'mon, is the grand scheme of thing music biz, they're on the same level.

People are arguing over micro-levels within one larger level. Like maybe Liam is 5-10% bigger than Noel or vice versa, which is basically the difference of a few thousand extra records being sold.

Noels slagging of Capaldi is just ridiculous now. Coming across as nasty and dick like and not funny at all. Capaldi is being funny at least. Anais seems to have a sense of humour. From Lewis Capaldi’s insta stories
