In a moment of pure rock 'n' roll fury, Liam Gallagher has publicly slammed music icon Sir Paul McCartney, accusing him of dishonesty in a spat that has set the music world alight.
The explosive incident occurred during Liam's own headline performance at the Isle of Wight Festival. Seizing the moment in front of a roaring crowd, the former Oasis frontman didn't hold back, directly calling out McCartney's recent claim of being the first person to headline Glastonbury's famed Pyramid Stage.
'Listen, you know that geezer Paul McCartney?' Gallagher provocatively asked the audience. 'He's a liar. He went on the telly the other day saying he was the first person to headline the Pyramid Stage. No, you weren't, mate! I fucking was!'
This dramatic accusation references Sir Paul's headline set in 2022, which was indeed historic as he became the festival's oldest solo headliner at 80 years old. However, Gallagher's rebuttal hinges on his own 1995 performance with Oasis, which he asserts was the true first headline slot on that stage, despite the band's performance being moved forward due to The Stone Roses' cancellation.
The very public dressing-down has sent shockwaves through the industry, pitting a pillar of British music history against one of its most iconic and outspoken modern stars. Fans are now fiercely debating the technicalities of Glastonbury's history on social media, making this more than a mere war of words—it's a full-blown battle for musical legacy.
