Liam Gallagher, the brash frontman of the English band, hopped on the mic during a recent concert in the United Kingdom to assure fans they wouldn't get "Coldplayed" at the band's performances.
"Do we have any lovebirds in the house?" Gallagher, 52, asked the crowd at their show in Manchester. "Don't worry," he assured, as seen in social media video from July 20, "we ain't got any of that Coldplay" camera work.
Getting some laughs from the crowd, Gallagher said it "doesn't matter to us" who their fans are "mingling" or "tingling" with. It's "none of our" business, he added.

Stephen Colbert to play late-night host on CBS' 'Elsbeth' after 'Late Show' cancellation
"The Late Show" may be ending, but Stephen Colbert has already booked another late-night role — sort of. The comedian, 61, will play a late-night host in an upcoming Season 3 episode of the CBS dramedy "Elsbeth," sources say. The show, a spinoff of "The Good Wife," stars Carrie Preston as an attorney and de facto detective. CBS declined to comment. The news was first reported by Vulture. Colbert's appearance as a guest star on another CBS show will be notable in the wake of the network's controversial decision to cancel "The Late Show." But even before that shock news was announced, Colbert expressed interest in popping up on "Elsbeth" — ideally, as a dead body. While speaking to "Elsbeth" star Wendell Pierce on "The Late Show" in February, Colbert playfully asked, "Will you talk to somebody over there? Because I keep asking CBS, I want to be a corpse on one of these shows." He joked, "I want to be the body that's found behind the pile of lettuce boxes." Pierce assured Colbert he could "make that happen." "Elsbeth" will return for its third season on Oct. 12. Numerous other stars have had guest roles on the series, including Jane Krakowski, Retta, Rob Riggle, Nathan Lane, Matthew Broderick, Keegan-Michael Key, Alan Ruck and Laurie Metcalf. Colbert's "Late Show" will end in May 2026, he announced July 17. The surprise move sparked outcry and claims that CBS canceled the show to appease President Donald Trump, given Colbert is a prominent critic. However, CBS said it was "purely a financial decision against a challenging backdrop in late night." Colbert's "Elsbeth" appearance will mark a somewhat rare acting role for the comedian. In recent years, he also had a voice role in the animated film "Despicable Me 4" and appeared in one episode of the sitcom "Girls5eva" as a fictional songwriter. Before "The Late Show," Colbert flexed his acting chops every night on Comedy Central's "The Colbert Report," on which he played a fictional conservative pundit, also named Stephen Colbert. Colbert has not said what he might do next after "The Late Show." But while interviewing comedians Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers late last month, he alluded to the possibility of starting his own podcast. Colbert said to Yang and Rogers, the hosts of "Las Culturistas," "I'm going to need a gig soon, so sell me on podcasting. Is it fun?" Contributing: Ralphie Aversa, USA TODAY

Stella Rimington, Britain's first female MI5 spy chief, dies at 90
MI5's current director-general, Born in London in 1935, Ms. Rimington studied English at Edinburgh University and later worked as an archivist. She was living in India with her diplomat husband in the mid-1960s when she was recruited by MI5, Britain's domestic security service, as a part-time clerk and typist in its New Delhi office. Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up She joined the agency full-time after moving back to London in 1969 and rose through the ranks, overcoming rules that kept the most prestigious roles, such as recruiting and running agents, for men only. Advertisement She worked in each of MI5's operational branches — counterespionage, counterterrorism, and counter-subversion — at a time when MI5's work included sniffing out Soviet spies, infiltrating Northern Ireland militant groups, and, controversially, spying on leftists, trade union leaders, and other alleged subversives. Ms. Rimington acknowledged in 2001 that the organization 'may have been a bit over-enthusiastic' in some of its snooping on domestic targets during the Cold War. Advertisement Ms. Rimington was appointed MI5 director-general in 1992, the first head of the organization to be named in public, and her tenure saw the secretive organization become slightly more open. Dench's first appearance as M, a role formerly played by men, was in 'GoldenEye' in 1995. The film's producers said the casting was inspired by Ms. Rimington's appointment. After stepping down in 1996, Ms. Rimington was made a dame, the female equivalent of a knight, by Queen Elizabeth II. Ms. Rimington later published a memoir, 'Open Secret' — to the displeasure of the government — and a series of spy thrillers featuring fictional MI5 officer Liz Carlyle. 'The Devil's Bargain,' published in 2022, introduced a new heroine, CIA officer Manon Tyler. Other women followed her top intelligence jobs. Eliza Manningham-Buller led MI5 between 2002 and 2007. Ms. Rimington and her husband, John Rimington, separated in the 1980s, but moved back in together during the COVID-19 lockdown in 2020. 'It's a good recipe for marriage, I'd say,' she said. 'Split up, live separately, and return to it later.' She is survived by her husband, two daughters, and five grandchildren.
