Oasis Set The Record Straight Amid Widespread Glastonbury 2025 Rumours

Oasis have dismissed speculation that they will be making an appearance at next year’s Glastonbury festival.

Despite the initial announcement about Liam and Noel Gallagher’s upcoming reunion shows specifying they would mark fans’ only opportunity to see them live in 2025, the last few days have seen rumours emerging suggesting the group could be putting in a performance on the Pyramid Stage next year.

However, they have now spoken out to insist this will not be the case.

“Despite media speculation, Oasis will not be playing Glastonbury 2025 or any other festivals next year,” they said in a statement.

“The only way to see the band perform will be on their Oasis Live ’25 World Tour.”

It’s perhaps worth pointing out that earlier in the summer, Noel made headlines when he slated the most recent Glastonbury line-up, for which he ended up facing a huge backlash.

After literal years of theorising about whether the estranged Gallagher brothers would ever put their differences aside and perform together again, it was confirmed on Tuesday morning that Oasis would be doing a string of gigs around the UK and Ireland in 2025.

So far, a total of 15 live shows have been announced, beginning in Cardiff in July.

Following this, the tour will travel to Manchester, London and Edinburgh, with two last shows scheduled for Dublin on 16 and 17 August.

Alongside the announcement, Oasis said:

“The guns have fallen silent.

“The stars have aligned.

“The great wait is over.

“Come see.

“It will not be televised.”

Tickets for Oasis’ 2025 tour will go on sale on Saturday morning at 9am BST, although a fan pre-sale is also taking place on Friday. Visit Oasis’ website for more information on this special pre-sale event.

There’s Been An Intriguing Update From Liam Gallagher Amid Fresh Oasis Reunion Claims

Liam Gallagher has spoken out amid rumours that he and his brother Noel had recently been planning an Oasis reunion.

The Gallagher brothers were part of Oasis for 18 years before they ultimately went their separate ways in 2009 , and have been embroiled in a very public feud ever since.

In the years that followed, there’ve been repeated calls for Oasis to reform in some capacity, with The Mirror reporting over the weekend that Liam and Noel had even quietly set dates aside this year to perform at Wembley Stadium, which would have taken place in July.

However, the tabloid cited an undisclosed “source” who claimed these plans “collapsed” when Noel decided not to be involved and the booked dates were then cancelled.

On Sunday morning, one fan asked Liam on X if an Oasis reunion was “actually happening”, to which he responded: “Nobody’s told me, maybe [they’re] getting a new singer like the dude out of Queen.”

The following day, another fan asked Liam more directly about the rumours of three nights at Wembley.

“What you asking me for? I know nothing,” Liam wrote back.

Back in February, Liam told Mojo magazine that an offer had been put “on the table” for Oasis to get back together, but Noel wasn’t interested.

Noel? He ain’t fucking doing it,” he said. “We put an offer on the table for an Oasis thing, because we got offered it – he said no. It was a big tour, a lot of money.”

When Liam claimed around this time that his “greedy” brother had turned down £100 million to reunite, Noel made a rare comment on X, insisting: “I am not aware of any offer from anybody for any amount of money to reform the legendary Mancunian Rock’n’Roll group Oasis.”

“I am fully aware though that someone has a single to promote so that’s maybe where the confusion lies,” he also quipped.

Liam is currently in the middle of an arena tour, performing Oasis’ seminal Definitely Maybe album in full to commemorate its 30th anniversary.

Noel Gallagher ‘Covered In Blood’ And Needing Stitches After Being Headbutted During Manchester City Celebrations

Noel Gallagher has revealed he needed stitches and was “covered in blood” after getting accidentally headbutted by Manchester City player Ruben Dias’ dad.

The Oasis star was in the stands at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday afternoon to watch Manchester City score three goals in five minutes to secure the Premier League trophy.

The musician and lifelong City fan was celebrating with the fans before getting caught by Ruben’s dad during the chaotic celebrations.

Sharing the story on talkSPORT, he said: “So as the third goal goes in, right, there is absolute bedlam, as you can imagine, in the stadium. Where we sit, Reuben Diaz’s family are in the box, a couple of boxes up.

“So I’m jumping around like an idiot, passing my 11-year-old son around like the Premier League trophy, everyone is lifting him up.

“I turn around and Rúben Dias’ dad runs straight into me, headbutts me while I’m on the floor covered in blood. I don’t see the last two minutes I’ve got to get taken down by the St John Ambulance and had to get stitched up. I’ve got stitches in my top lip, I’ve got two black eyes.”

Noel says he bumped into the winning team’s manager Pep Gaurdiola following the incident, who asked what had happened to his face.

“As I’m going down the corridor Pep’s running up crying and we kind of hug each other and he says, ‘What’s up with your face?’ And I was like, ‘Go see the players, nothing to do with me’.

“And if you’ve seen me today, I look like I’ve just arrived home from the 80s, from Elland Road. I look like I’ve had my head smashed in. It’s unbelievable.

“A lot of City fans are asking, ‘You alright? What’s happened?’ And I said – ‘You’ll never guess!’”

Noel added that despite his own injuries, Rúben Dias’ dad came out of the exchange without a mark on him.

“He’s a big bear of a man – he almost knocked my teeth out.

“But as days go at the Etihad that’s got to be up there with the best.”

Little Mix’s Jade Thirlwall Comes Back Swinging After Noel Gallagher’s Jibes About The Band

Little Mix singer Jade Thirlwall has some fighting talk for Noel Gallagher after the former Oasis musician’s jibes about her band.

Earlier this year, Jade and her bandmates made history at the Brit Awards when they became the first girl group in history to take home Best British Group.

Their win was widely praised at the time, particularly when the stars shouted out a handful of British girl bands who paved the way for them in their acceptance speech, but one person who seemingly wasn’t impressed was Noel.

“Little Mix, with the greatest respect, are not in the same league as Oasis. Not even in the same f*****g sport,” he claimed.

Noel continued: “It’s a symptom of the music business chasing the numbers – and there not being any bands or songwriters in those bands.

“Record company guys constantly say, ‘Oh, these guys are the real deal’. And I think, ‘You wouldn’t know the real deal if it f***ing bit you on the a***, mate’.”

Well, Jade has now had her say on the matter during an appearance on the upcoming reboot of Never Mind The Buzzcocks.

In a preview clip shared in Radio Times’ new podcast, Jade is heard saying: “[Noel said] something about that we were undeserving of the Brit Award because we’re women and don’t… well, we do write music, but he thinks we don’t write music.”

She added: “Yeah, shame really. Because you know, we are definitely the most successful girl group in the country, but he’s not even the most successful performer in his family.

It’s worth noting that Little Mix have writing credits on all six of their studio albums, with signature tracks like Wings, Move, Shout Out To My Ex and their most recent hit Heartbreak Anthem all having been co-penned by the group themselves.

The chart-topping band are currently riding a huge wave of success after Sweet Melody – their final single to feature former band member Jesy Nelsontopped the charts at the beginning of this year, with subsequent singles Confetti, Heartbreak Anthem and Kiss My (Uh Oh) all breaking the top 10 in the last few months.
