Liam Gallagher Addresses Controversy Over Racial Slur Apology

## Noteworthy Facts About Iconic Artists

It’s no secret that certain artists have become synonymous with unique quirks. Stevie Nicks is known for her extensive shawl collection, while Bob Dylan explored Christianity back in the 1980s. Then there’s Donald Fagen, who has strong opinions about the term “yacht rock.” And let’s not forget how fond Liam Gallagher is of Twitter.

## Liam Gallagher’s Apology

As the highly anticipated Oasis reunion tour approaches—a moment fans have yearned for over the last 15 years—Gallagher found himself in hot water. He issued an apology for an offensive racial slur he posted on X (formerly Twitter). Though he deleted the post, screenshots captured a derogatory term aimed at East Asian individuals. When fans voiced their concerns, Gallagher responded dismissively at first but eventually issued a genuine apology.

“Sorry if I offended anyone with my tweet before; it wasn’t intentional,” he expressed. “You know I love you all, and I do not discriminate. Peace and love, LG x.”

## The Exciting Oasis Reunion Tour

The long-awaited Oasis tour kicks off on July 4 with two consecutive nights in Cardiff, Wales. This extensive tour includes 41 shows across the U.K., Ireland, North America, Asia, Australia, and South America. Notably, bassist Andy Bell will join the band for these performances.

While Gallagher playfully hinted at a possible new Oasis album on X, their manager, Alec McKinlay, confirmed that there are “no plans for any new music” at this time. Nonetheless, there’s a film in the works alongside the tour, and fans can look forward to a 30th anniversary deluxe edition of *What’s The Story) Morning Glory?*, set to release on October 3.

## A Memorable Moment with Green Day

In a fun twist, Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day had an amusing incident during a show on June 30. He invited a fan onstage to perform “Good Riddance (Time of Your Life),” but the fan decided to play Oasis’ “Wonderwall” instead. This unexpected choice led Armstrong to kick him off the stage, a turn of events that undoubtedly delighted Gallagher, who remarked on X, “Best song of the night.”
