Oasis and Mariah Carey among Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees
Britpop band Oasis and US singer Mariah Carey are among the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees for 2025.
The Manchester rockers, made up of brothers Noel and Liam Gallagher, are returning for a UK tour later this year after splitting in 2009.
Oasis, known for hits including Wonderwall, Don't Look Back In Anger and Stop Crying Your Heart Out, were previously nominated in 2024, but did not become inductees.
Instead, Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne and rock musician Peter Frampton were entered into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame alongside others including US singer Cher.
More than half of the 2025 nominated artists are on the ballot for the first time, including British rockers Bad Company, whose members included Paul Rodgers, Simon Kirke, Mick Ralphs and the late Raymond 'Boz' Burrell, British punk musician Billy Idol, US singer Chubby Checker, and hip hop duo OutKast.
Also featured are Manchester-formed Joy Division/New Order, US rock duo The White Stripes and American singer Cyndi Lauper, who played Glastonbury last year and is currently on her Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Farewell Tour.
John Sykes, chairman of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Foundation, said: 'These remarkable nominees have each created their own musical style and attitude, impacting generations of music lovers and contributing to the ever-evolving sounds and continued growth of rock and roll.'
The inductees are decided after a ballot of 'over 1,200 artists, historians, and music industry professionals', with the criteria of the 'artist's impact on music culture, influence on other musicians that have followed, as well as the scope and longevity of their career and body of work'.

Jeremy Clarkson's pub staff walk out after 'too many problems'
Jeremy Clarkson's pub staff walk out after 'too many problems' "We've lost two waitresses. We lost a pot washer. After one day" Jeremy suffers staffing issues in his pub in the latest series of Clarkson's Farm (Image: Prime Video ) Prime Video viewers have been getting an insight into the opening of Jeremy Clarkson's pub and it revealed staff walked out at the time of its launch. The season four finale of Clarkson's Farm on Prime Video exposed all the challenges during The Farmer's Dog's tumultuous opening over the August bank holiday of 2024. Jeremy found himself addressing the trouble in a candid conversation with farm manager Charlie Ireland. After speaking highly of his staff in earlier episodes, describing them as friendly and ever-smiling, he reluctantly revealed: "We've lost two waitresses. We lost a pot washer. After one day." To add further insult to injury, pressure mounted during a distressing meeting with senior team members Sue and Rachel at the pub, where they highlighted big problems, reports the Express. They told Jeremy: "Everyone is exhausted, even when we say go for a break, there is no staff room." Jeremy Clarkson did not like what he heard in a sit down with staff members Sue and Rachel (Image: Prime Video ) "They're weeing in a portaloo. It's not lovely conditions. They love you. They're excited about the British food," they tried to reassure Jeremy. Article continues below Jeremy stating firmly: "I have no problem with the staff," before adding, "Not one single problem with the staff. They're all brilliant. They are smiling. They are nice." However, Sue and Rachel indicated that further attention might be needed in the kitchen, which was on the cusp of crisis. "The kitchen is about to go pop, those chefs have had it.... It might be worth popping into the kitchen," they suggested. "I just popped in," he said, only to be met with the response: "Go back." For the latest TV and showbiz gossip sign up to our newsletter Jeremy, who was worn out from working non-stop on the farm while also preparing the pub for its opening, was deeply offended by this suggestion and retorted: "Do you want me to go and find a manager? Or go back into the kitchen?" "Or do you want me to mend the leak? Or do you want me to deal with the car parking issues? Or do you want me to deal with the neighbours? Do you want me to deal with the council? I've got plenty to be doing and I'll get on with it. Thank you." This outburst was the last straw for the pair, who shortly after quit. Undefeated Jeremy said: "We've worked out if we shut the lavatories and use plastic glasses instead of glass ones, we'll have enough water to serve food until six. "The next problem is Sue and Rachel, who brilliantly set up the pub, have now left. So it's a Sunday morning, I've managed to get a new front of house person who is the head of sixth form at the local village school. That's good." Article continues below
