Liam Gallagher blasts brother Noel after coward jibe & slams his decision to not play at Manchester bombing charity gig
HE’S never been one to hold back but Liam Gallagher has taken his row with his brother Noel to new depths.
The rocker yesterday launched a blistering attack on his sibling after Noel called him a coward for not picking up the phone to talk about a possible Oasis reunion.
In a fresh Twitter rant, Liam referenced a 1995 interview by his brother in which he wished their Britpop rival, 's Damon Albarn, would “catch Aids and die”.
He also accused Noel of snubbing Ariana Grande’s charity concert following the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing.
Liam tweeted: “I don’t wish Aids on people.
“I turn up and play the music for the people of Manchester who have just had a terror attack while you sit on your dingy sipping champagne and you got the audacity to call me a coward.

“Sit down you b***end.
“He’s the coward who doesn’t show up to play music for his hometown after a tragedy.”
Liam added of a possible reunion: “I don’t keep saying it’s happening, I said it once.
“I get asked and I say I’m ready, born ready.

“We should have never have split up. He’s full of s**t.
“He hates Oasis fans.
“Doesn’t mind them buying his records.”
After fans accused Liam of hitting below the belt, he raged: “Listen, I woke up to find him giving me s**t in the press.
“He was doing it in Oasis so therefore I remind folk how much of a nasty little man he is.”
Right now, there’s more chance of me becoming the new Oasis frontman than these two reuniting.
KYLIE KEEPS IT GLASSY
KYLIE MINOGUE has good reason to raise a glass – she’s on course to have her highest charting single for almost a decade tomorrow.
The Aussie singer was in LA to celebrate the third anniversary of her wine brand – which has shifted nine million bottles – following the release of her comeback single Padam Padam.
It was at No27 last night, ahead of new releases from Beyonce and Zara Larsson.
Her 2018 track Dancing was her last tune to crack the Top 40, reaching No38, while Into The Blue hit No12 in 2014.
Kylie said: “I’ve got more songs than I can fit into a show these days but I still ask myself, ‘What’s the song we haven’t done?’.
“So I’m always thinking that there’s more.”
BRAZILIAN pop superstar Anitta will co-headline the Champions League Final Kick Off Show by Pepsi, along with Burna Boy, on June 10 in Istanbul.
The event, aiming to rival to the Super Bowl half-time show,is now in its seventh year.

WIND IN THE BILLOWS
HEIDI KLUM outshone the movies at Cannes Film Festival last night.
The German model wore this striking yellow dress with a train that billowed in the wind as she walked the red carpet ahead of a screening of French film La Passion De Dodin Bouffant.
Heidi, married to Tokio Hotel guitarist Tom Kaulitz, is 50 a week today and said: “It is, for me, just a number because I don’t feel 50, internally.
“I’m full of energy.
“My husband is 33 and I know I have more energy than him!”
Elsewhere at the bash in the South of France model Elsa Hosk wore a frankly baffling double corset dress and Kate Beckinsale, normally a rather snazzy dresser, opted for a fussy mint gown.
If you’re asking me, I’d sack the stylist.
And maybe Robbie Williams should have a word with his, too, because he rocked up in a pair of silk pyjamas which he wore with a pair of green sliders.
The world of celebrity is going mad.
HEIDI EYES RETURN
FORMER Sugababes singer is ready for a music comeback after being inspired by Little Mix.
She was in her girl group from 2001 to 2011 but now has two daughters and felt an urge to get back into pop after taking her eldest to see the Sweet Melody singers on tour last year.
Heidi said: “I feel like I’m just getting to a new stage where I’m ready to remember who I was.
“When I go to shows, you kind of want to grab the mic and have a go.
“There’s a part of me that would love to show her what mummy can do.
“I’d like to do stuff where they can see me do things now that would inspire them and make them proud as they get older.”
Her bandmates Mutya Buena and Keisha Buchanan have now reunited with Siobhan Donaghy, who she originally replaced, but there are no hard feelings.
On Sophie Ellis-Bextor's Spinning Plates podcast, she said: “I’m happy for them.
“It’s nice that the songs are still out there.
“I am proud that I was part of the success of the songs.
“I wish them well.”
RISING star Charlotte Kirk has landed a massive new film role alongside John Hannah.
She will play John’s character’s wife in gangster film Bermondsey Tales: Fall Of The Roman Empire, which starts filming this week.
I revealed last month how ex-EastEnder Maisie Smith had also signed up to take part in the film, which follows the story of a London crime family.
Alan Ford and Adam Deacon will also feature.
Crutch is life, Will
AS genetically-engineered hero Adam Warlock in The Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 3, he was practically unstoppable.
But Will Poulter is far from indestructible in real life, as he proved after he showed up to a party on these crutches.
The actor hasn’t revealed what caused his injury, but he used the walking aides as he headed into the bash in London and was also wearing a huge boot to protect his right foot.
He still managed to look suave in his brown suit and matching T-shirt though, so there isn’t much that can stop him.
Hooky’s Free time for Andy
ROCK supergroup Freebass are set to return despite the death of band member Andy Rourke last week.
The late Smiths bassist was part of the group with Joy Division and New Order's Peter Hook, The Stone Roses' and Haven's Gary Briggs from 2005 to 2010 and now unheard songs are set for release.
In an exclusive conversation, Peter said: “There are a lot of Freebass recordings people have never heard.
“I think it would be a wonderful homage to Andy to let people hear them.”
Peter, who formed a DJing double act with Andy, said he hoped the tragedy could help heal the rift between Smiths singer Morrissey and guitarist Johnny Marr.
He added: “Andy’s death was a sad day for Manchester.

“People asked how Freebass could work with three bassists but we managed to find a way for our instruments to weave around and complement each other.
“Andy was in a completely different league.”
