Rome City Councillor claims 'negotiations are underway' to bring Oasis to the Italian capital in 2026
Despite claims the Oasis Live '25 Tour will not go beyond 2025, Onorato has alleged "negotiations are underway" to bring the Britpop legends back to the European country for the first time in 17 years.
Speaking on Radio Sei this week, as quoted by La Cronica De Roma, Onorato said: 'In 2026, Oasis could take their tour to Europe. And yes, we've applied to host them in Rome.'
He continued: 'Oasis in the capital? These are live shows for companies that organise events all over the world, and the financial aspect is crucial. Negotiations are underway.'
As it stands, the Slide Away rockers are due to wrap their first jaunt since 2009 on November 23, 2025 in São Paulo, Brazil.
Frontman Liam Gallagher recently insisted he and guitarist Noel Gallagher - who were embroiled in a messy 15-year feud before agreeing to put the past behind them to give Oasis fans the reunion they'd always dreamed of - will "take it one day at a time" with regards to the future.
The band's manager, Alec McKinlay, insisted the Oasis Live '25 Tour isn't the beginning of new releases from the band.
He told Music Week magazine: "This is very much the last time around, as Noel's made clear in the press.
"It's a chance for fans who haven't seen the band to see them, or at least for some of them to. But no, there's no plan for any new music."
The news sent shockwaves through fans, with one asking frontman Liam on X: "liam I don't know who the manager of Oasis is, but his attitude of telling us that after this tour there will be nothing more was not very biblical. (sic)"
However, it seems the Live Forever singer isn't ruling anything out with his brother.
Liam replied: "Neither do I and the only people that will be making any kind of decisions on the future of OASIS will be ME n RKID so let's just take it 1 day at a time. (sic)"
The Shockwave singer followed up his response by suggesting he could even do another album with John Squire, after he and The Stone Roses guitarist released a joint self-titled LP last year.
He penned: "I might do another album with John who knows I might join the spiritual space invaders I might do nothing that's the groovy thing about the future nobody knows."

Oasis fan slipped on beer before fatal concert plunge
A man who tragically lost his life at an Oasis gig at Wembley Stadium died after reportedly slipping on spilled beer. Lee Claydon, 45, fell from the upper tier during the Gallagher brothers' sold-out performance on Saturday night. The devastating accident occurred as the audience applauded and fireworks lit up the sky at the end of the show. Despite the desperate efforts of medics, Lee was pronounced dead at the scene. Lee, described as a 'devoted father,' attended the concert with his brother Aaron, niece, and nephew, among 100,000 fans. His father, Clive Claydon, 75, told The Sun the incident as 'an accident waiting to happen.' 'There was beer all over the floor, it was really slippery, and Lee just slipped and fell,' Clive said. 'I am devastated and want answers from Wembley about how this could have happened.' Concertgoers have echoed concerns about the slippery conditions. Jade, 31, from Essex, recounted how she stumbled due to spilled drinks, resulting in minor injuries. Oasis released a statement expressing their shock and sadness over the incident, offering condolences to Lee's family and friends. Lee's brother Aaron informed their father of the tragedy. Clive, in tears, recalled his son's enthusiasm for the gig and lamented the loss of a hardworking family man. Lee's partner, Amanda, paid tribute to him as a 'devoted father, soulmate, and role model,' expressing her heartbreak over his untimely death. A GoFundMe page has been set up by Aaron to support the grieving family, highlighting Lee's role as a loving family man and role model to his son, Harry. A spokesperson for Wembley Stadium stated that the venue operates to high health and safety standards, regularly reviewed and tested to ensure compliance with legal requirements. The Metropolitan Police have called for witnesses to come forward, urging anyone with information or mobile footage of the incident to contact them. Wembley Stadium, along with the London Ambulance Service and police, attended to Lee following the fall. Despite their efforts, he sadly passed away. The police are supporting Lee's family and continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the tragedy.

Paul Weller refusing to see Oasis live because he doesn't like 'big gigs'
Paul Weller won't be going to the Oasis Live '24 tour because he doesn't like "big gigs". The Jam star - who is good friends with Oasis star Noel Gallagher - has confessed he won't be going to any of the reunited band's concerts this year because he isn't a fan of stadium shows and prefers to see bands perform in more intimate venues. During an interview with Jo Whiley on BBC Radio 2, Weller explained: "I've not been to see them [Oasis], no ... "I'm not a big fan of big gigs, I said to Noel, a few weeks or months ago: 'Are you going to do any warm-ups?' which he wasn't, but, I'd go and see something like that in a smaller venue, but I just don't like big gigs. It doesn't matter who it was, really." He added: "Inevitably, it doesn't matter too much where you're sitting unless you're right in the front row, you just end up watching the screens. It kind of spoils a bit for me because I want to see whoever is playing or singing, and I want to be able to see them." Weller, 67, went on to insist he's pleased for his pal Noel because the Oasis reunion has proved to be a "big cultural moment". He said: "You know how it's going to go for him, it's going to be mad. I said to him that it's going to be a cultural moment because the amount of people I speak to just out on the street, not necessarily who you'd think would be an Oasis fan, but they are all going to it, and it's a big cultural moment, I think that will be remembered forever ... "There's probably not too many bands like them [Oasis] at the moment, y'know, kind of guitar music. I can't think of any, not from the UK anyway, maybe Fontaines DC is different and people like that. So, I think it's definitely a younger audience who missed out on that '90s thing." The Oasis Live '25 Tour started in the UK in Cardiff with shows on July 4 and 5 before heading to the band's hometown of Manchester for five gigs at Heaton Park between July 11 and 16 After concluding the UK and Ireland leg - with gigs in London, Edinburgh and Dublin - Oasis will take the shows to North America, South Korea, Japan, Australia and South America, where the tour will conclude in Sao Paulo, Brazil on November 25.

Melanie C's Spanish island getaway with Aussie boyfriend continues
Don't miss out on the headlines from Entertainment. Followed categories will be added to My News. Another week, another set of photos showing Spice Girl Melanie C looking loved-up in Europe with her Aussie boyfriend Chris Dingwall. Days after sharing photos of their romantic getaway on the Spanish island of Mallorca, the pair have been spotted on a boat in Ibiza, Sporty Spice looking fit as ever at 51. Ripped Spice! Melanie C on holiday in Ibiza. Picture: BACKGRID In one photo, the pop star, clad in a black string bikini, planted a kiss on her Aussie model boyfriend. Dingwall is originally from Sydney but has travelled the world as a model signed to Ford Models and Chadwick. Planting a kiss on her Aussie man. Picture: Backgrid. Sporty and her Spice Boy. Picture: BACKGRID Mel C's not the only Spice Girl to be publicly loved-up lately – Scary Spice Mel B just celebrated her second wedding to hairstylist Rory McPhee in Morocco. Meanwhile, soon-to-be The Voice Australia coach Mel C and her Aussie beau went public at Wimbledon in London last July, days after they were spotted walking hand-in-hand at the iconic Glastonbury festival. She hasn't missed an ab day since about 1996. Picture: Backgrid. The pair are spending the European summer Spanish island-hopping. Picture: sarah@ But they had been quietly dating for months before that: Melanie's frequent visits to our shores earlier in 2024, ostensibly for DJ gigs, also doubled as quality time with Dingwall as the pair shared romantic getaways in resorts across Brisbane, Byron Bay and the Whitsundays. Super-private Melanie C has referred to Dingwall as her 'love' on social media. Picture: BACKGRID Mel C and Chris Dingwall at Sydney Airport earlier this year. Picture: Since those early days the pair have become more open about their relationship, with Melanie C even professing her 'love' for Dingwall on social media in January after he wished her a happy 51st birthday. Melanie C is undoubtedly the most private of the five Spice Girls when it comes to her love life, largely keeping her relationships out of the public eye since a string of romances with high-profile musicians in the late 90s and early noughties. She has a teenage daughter from a longtime relationship with ex-partner Thomas Starr. The pair split in 2012 after a decade together. After that, Melanie dated her manager, Joe Marshall, for seven years before they split in 2022. Originally published as Melanie C's Spanish island getaway with Aussie boyfriend continues
