Coleen Rooney has been forced into a swift social media retreat after a boast about the rock band Oasis spectacularly backfired, drawing ire from fans and critics alike.
The wife of football legend Wayne Rooney took to her Instagram stories to share an astonishing anecdote, revealing that the famously fractious Gallagher brothers, Noel and Liam, once performed a private acoustic set for her and a friend in a hotel room. The impromptu concert was allegedly a peace offering after a prior disagreement.
The post, however, was met with an immediate and fierce backlash. Followers were quick to condemn the story as a staggering display of arrogance and a blatant 'humblebrag', particularly given the ongoing bitter feud between the Oasis siblings that has prevented any hope of a public reunion for years.
A Swift Digital Retreat
Unable to stem the tide of negative comments, Coleen promptly deleted the story. The incident has thrust her back into the spotlight, a place she has been familiar with since the infamous 'Wagatha Christie' libel case against Rebekah Vardy that dominated headlines.
This latest episode has sparked a fresh wave of commentary online, with many users suggesting the move was a misguided attempt to deflect from other news cycles or simply a chronicle of a celebrity life entirely detached from reality.
The Internet Reacts
Social media platforms erupted with criticism. One user pointedly asked, "Do you have any idea how privileged you sound?", while others lamented that they would "never see Oasis live" but Coleen had them perform in a private setting. The general consensus was one of disbelief and frustration at the sheer audacity of the claim.
The court of public opinion has delivered its verdict, and for Coleen Rooney, it was a case of instant regret, proving that even the most casual social media posts can ignite a firestorm.
