Liam Gallagher is a lot of things: rock star, expert shit-talker, and adoring younger sibling to his big brother Noel. Well, maybe ‘adoring’ is a little strong, but there’s also another side to Liam Gallagher that we need to talk about, alongside the legacy of Oasis music and having a big mouth: the man is almost definitely responsible for the greatest music journalism headlines of the past two decades.
Gallagher was recently interviewed by GQ, and as usual delivered more hilarious soundbites in one interview than most artists can put out in 20, best evidenced by WhatsApp Ricky:
