Liam Gallagher blasts Coldplay over viral kiss cam cheating moment
The 52-year-old, who is back on the road with Oasis, hit out at the incident on stage amid the continuing fallout from the Coldplay concert in Boston on Wednesday.
Frontman Chris Martin joked about a couple caught on camera cuddling — later identified as Andy Byron, 50, and Kristin Cabot, both executives at software firm Astronomer — who are reportedly both married to other people.
Gallagher made it clear that Oasis fans need not fear the spotlight at his gigs, following global backlash over the pair's alleged fling.
'Right then, do we have any love birds in the house? Don't worry, we ain't got any of that Coldplay snidey f***ing camera s***,' he told the crowd in Manchester on Sunday night, local time.
'This one's for the love birds anyway.
'Doesn't matter to us who you're mingling with — or tingly with, fingingly with.
'None of our f***ing business.'
The incident at the Coldplay concert drew widespread attention after Chris Martin's stage camera landed on Byron and Cabot, who appeared stunned.
'Oh, look at these two — either they're having an affair or they're just very shy,' Martin said.
The clip rapidly gained traction online, viewed more than 120 million times.
Following the incident, Astronomer confirmed Byron's resignation, stating: 'Our leaders are expected to set the standard in both conduct and accountability, and recently, that standard was not met.
'While awareness of our company may have changed overnight, our product and our work for our customers have not.'
The concertgoer who filmed the footage said she hadn't expected the attention the footage would receive.
'In the moment when I filmed it I didn't think much of it, but everyone was kind of chattering,' Grace Springer told British broadcaster ITV.
'I definitely feel for Andy's wife Megan, his family and everyone else who has been hurt in the process.'
Asked whether she would post it again, she replied: 'If it wasn't me who uploaded it, I'm sure someone else would've.'

Drake's Manchester gig cancelled due to 'travel logistics' issues
Drake has cancelled his gig at Manchester's Co-op Live arena due to "travel logistics" issues. The Hotline Bling rapper had been set to play at the venue in Manchester on Monday (28.07.25) but the performance has now been rescheduled for August 5 and organisers say "all tickets remain valid for the new date". Drake had already played two shows in the city on Friday (25.07.25) and Saturday (26.07.25) as part of his Some Special Shows 4 U tour and is also due to stage another gig at the arena on August 4. A statement on the arena's website read: "Due to unforeseen ferry schedule and travel logistics, tomorrow's performance in Manchester on July 28th has been rescheduled." It added: "The good news is that Drake will now perform in Manchester on Tuesday, August 5th, and it's set to be an unforgettable night." Meanwhile, Drake recently dropped a new single with British rapper Central Cee ahead of his shows in Manchester. The track – titled Which One – was revealed in an episode of the Canadian rapper's Iceman stream that was broadcast last Thursday (24.07.25) and filmed around the city. It featured scenes of Drake running from a pursuer in a Pinocchio mask – which was interpreted as a symbol for "lies" following the star around. He previously teamed up with Central Cee for the 2023 song On the Radar Freestyle. Drake had hinted at the collaboration during the second of his three headline performances at London's Wireless festival earlier this month – where he brought Central Cee out on stage. He told the crowd: "I'm so proud of this guy. "He's going around the world, killing it, shutting down every show, record after record." Drake also hailed other rappers from the UK during the festival, where he headlined all three nights. The God's Plan hitmaker said: "Nobody can out-rap London rappers. This is the best, this is the highest level." Drake revealed earlier this year that he is working on a new solo album and has promised that it will be "a slap". He said: "Thank you to everybody that's streaming the album. Every time, every journey. Working on a new album, it's a slap." Asked if it's a solo record, he replied: "Yeah."

Scouting for Girls frontman Roy Stride regrets snubbing collaborations
Scouting for Girls lead singer Roy Stride wishes the band had collaborated with more artists at the height of their success. The 46-year-old singer has recalled how the This Ain't A Love Song band could have "worked with anyone" when they had hits during the 2000s and regrets letting his ego stop them from doing so. Roy told the Daily Star newspaper's Wired column: "Honestly I had the opportunity then to have worked with anyone in the world, like, really I could've worked with Max Martin or like any songwriter in the world. "I was just like because I'd written all the first album myself I was like, 'No, I just write it all by myself.' "And now I spend such a great portion of my time writing songs for other people, which I love. I do wish I'd used that opportunity there to have worked with amazing artists." Roy admits that collaboration could have helped Scouting for Girls crack America, something they were "naive" about at the pinnacle of their fame. He said: "With America, it's not like we just thought that it would happen, but you do, when you're in that bubble of being one of the biggest bands in the country, you just assume, you do." Scouting for Girls are playing numerous festivals this summer and Roy thinks they are always asked back for gigs every year because they prioritise the fans. The She's So Lovely hitmaker said: "We're not trying to fob anyone off, so if you like new music and you're a big fan, there's good stuff coming out, but we always do a show where we're playing the hits as well. "I try to be the band, I do everything in this band that I wish the bands that I loved would do, I play the hits, but do really good new music, and really interesting on socials too." The group were branded 'Scouting for Idiots' by Oasis rocker Noel Gallagher in a 2008 interview but Roy admitted recently that he doesn't hold a grudge following the typically acerbic comments. He told Contact Music: "I would never retaliate. "He was like a God. Did it hurt? Not really. I never heard it. My wife heard it live on radio because I think he said it on Radio 1, but she was like, Oh, he basically sounded like he'd been out all night and he came in, and was just reviewing every single band, and he was just saying that about every band. I've never met him since. "You can see on my vinyl here. And I've got, yeah, I've got everything. I've got Oasis and Blur."

‘No appetite at all': King delivers brutal message to Prince Andrew over Epstein scandal
Entertainment Reporter Bronte Coy claims there's 'no appetite' from the British public for Prince Andrew to return to royal duties. Ms Coy's comments come as Prince Andrew's hopes of returning to royal duties have been firmly shut down by King Charles, despite the FBI confirming it will not pursue any further charges in the Jeffrey Epstein case. 'There's no appetite from the British public over here for him to return to royal duties. There seems to be no appetite at all from the King,' Ms Coy told Sky News host Caroline Di Russo. 'He doesn't have that public life, and there really doesn't look like they'll ever be a return to it.'
