Oasis stars' children show unbreakable bond with 'photo of the century'
The Gallagher clan has shown their bond is unbreakable as Oasis returned to their hometown for their Manchester gigs this weekend.
Just last week, Liam Gallagher, 52, and his elder brother Noel Gallagher, 58, launched their much-anticipated reunion tour, rocking the stage in Cardiff to the delight of thousands of devoted fans, while those who missed out on tickets tuned in via TikToks and livestreams.
This concert marked the first time the quarrelling brothers have shared a stage since their break up in 2009, with their months-long global tour now predicted to net them a cool £50million each. But before jetting off to Asia, Australia, and South America, Liam and Noel are set to entertain their Mancunian fans, with their children cheering them on through every tune.
Ahead of the inaugural Manchester show at Heaton Park, Gene Gallagher, Liam's 24 year old son, shared a photo on social media that sent Oasis fans into a frenzy. Posing backstage, Gene was accompanied by his brother Lennon, 25, Noel's daughter Anais, 25, and his sons Donovan, 17, and Sonny, 14.
In the middle of them was Spanish football manager Pep Guardiola, 54, who likely received VIP treatment given Noel's long-standing support for Man City, which Guardiola has been managing since 2016.
They all stood grinning, arms draped around each other, drinks in hand, and VIP lanyards hanging around their necks. Gene, who boasts a following of 270k on Instagram, cheekily captioned his post: "Pic of the century alright now everyone els f**k off".
Gene's mum, Nicole Appleton, responded to the post with a smiley face and a heart emoji, while her sister, Natalie, commented: "Fabulous photo!! Cousins" with a heart emoji too. One fane wrote: 'you're right this is the pic of the year', while another hailed the snap as 'Legendary!' as a third expressed: 'This brings joy to my heart.'
Several followers also noticed Gene's outfit choice, as one said: 'Is it only me that realise that gene is wearing liam flanel when he played at mainedroad 1996'. Another tweeted: 'THE MAINE ROAD JACKET YES' with a fire emoji.
This comes after just last week, Gene and Anais, were spotted belting out the lyrics to Oasis songs in a sweet moment shared online. While Oasis were performing Cigarettes & Alcohol, Gene and Anais went all out as they danced and sang along to the popular track. In a moment filmed for the camera, the two leaned towards each other as they screamed out the chorus.
Fans were obsessed with the sweet moment, with one fan sharing the video online and writing: "Anaïs and gene you're so real for this," while another fan said: "Oh i love them so much."
"Awe love this," one user commented while another joked about the VIP section they were standing in: "Thought they'd be closer to the front!"
After Oasis' first performance on Friday, Anais shared her review of the reunion gig as she shared a snap of herself, holding a pint while sporting an Oasis shirt as she watched her dad and uncle perform on stage. Giving a review of the special night, Anais, 25, captioned the snap: "It's good to be back."

The Love Island Australia star revealed she is expecting in an Instagram post on Monday, but explained that she has been struggling with hyperemesis gravidarum and prenatal depression. 'I was fighting for my life in the first trimester,' the 34-year-old wrote in her caption. 'A year ago I was manifesting my dream life and God delivered. I was blessed with a healthy baby but also a pregnancy that would test every part of me.' Phoebe explained that she did not want to 'sugarcoat' her experience. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in th loop.

The reality star added: 'The past few months have humbled me in ways I didn't know possible. I've felt excited, scared, grateful, lost and helpless all at once. 'It wasn't morning sickness - it was all day and night.' The television personality went on to describe her crippling prenatal depression - a condition she did not understand before she experienced it. 'I didn't recognise myself. I thought I'd be one of those active, glowing, strong mamas-to-be. Instead, I was bedridden and broken,' she wrote. 'Why couldn't I embrace the miracle? I carried guilt for not loving pregnancy. I questioned my worth, my strength, my ability to be a mum.' Phoebe revealed she is now in her third trimester and doing better, however has continued to face physical challenges. The television personality went on to describe her crippling prenatal depression - a condition she did not understand before she experienced it 'Watching my body change, expand, not fitting any clothes, it's been a mental trip on a bumpy road,' she said.

Spain's government demand investigation into Barcelona wonderboy Lamine Yamal's 18th birthday party after 'dwarves were exploited' and women with 'specific breast dimensions were paid to attend'
The Spanish government has demanded an investigation into Lamie Yamal's controversial 18th birthday party, during which 'dwarves were exploited' and women with 'specific breast measurements paid to attend'. A model named Claudio Calvo has claimed Barcelona sensation Yamal paid for 12 women with a 'certain breast size' to attend the bash and now the government are seeking a huge fine and probe into the mafia-themed bash following the outcry over paid attendees with Dwarfism. Yamal had celebrated his birthday this weekend with around 200 people attending the event, including friends, family and team-mates. But after Association of People with Achondroplasia and Other Skeletal Dysplasias with Dwarfism (ADEE) threatened to take legal action, the Spanish government joined those condemning Yamal and demanded a probe into the party. According to Marca, Yamal could be hit with a fine of up to £867,000 and the General Director of Disability in the government, Jesús Martín, wants ministers to approve an investigation. He said: 'We are concerned that people with money, people with power, believe themselves to be unpunished. The law is for everyone, for the humble and for the powerful.' Martin also expressed his fear that this kind of party could impact impressionable young fans who look up to Yamal and copy his behaviour. The specifics around what exactly was asked of those with dwarfism in attendance remains murky but the group representing those with disabilities roundly condemned Yamal. 'The ADEE, a member organization of the Spanish Confederation of People with Physical and Organic Disabilities (COCEMFE), condemns and publicly denounces the hiring of people with dwarfism as part of the entertainment at the recent 18th birthday party of soccer player Lamine Yamal,' their statement read. 'The Association announces that it will take legal and social action to safeguard the dignity of people with disabilities, considering that these actions violate not only current legislation but also the fundamental ethical values of a society that seeks to be egalitarian and respectful.' In the face of the criticism, the Barcelona star has simply shared a one-minute clip to fans on social media of his party, writing 'Just 1 minute, enjoy it'. The clip revealed the party took place at a private estate and had a mafia style theme. Yamal had been dressed in a white suit with a red rose in his lapel, while his look included sunglasses and a cane. The teenager was also seen wearing a £300,000 necklace featuring his initials "LY', which had been gifted to him by Dominican rapper El Alfa. Despite being a private event, where guests were not permitted to take mobile phones and take photos, parts of the teenager's celebration have drawn criticism. Spanish model, Calvo, who was Miss Teenager Spain 2021 and Miss Teenager Europe 2022, claimed she was asked to attend the event. Speaking on Spanish television show Tardear TV, alleged that organisers were seeking to hire 12 blonde women with specific breast sizes to attend the celebration. She claimed the women would have been paid up to 20,000 euros, but would need to be available for 24 hours, with the location of the event not disclosed to them. Calvo claimed she had backed out of the event after receiving the list of demands 'I have screenshots of everything, the conversations, they told me that the fee would be a certain amount between 10,000 and 20,000 euros,' Calvo told Tardear TV. 'But the truth is that you don't really know what you're getting into, because they don't tell you what they really expect from you beyond "having a good time" at the party. 'They asked for blonde girls with a certain breast size,' Calvo claimed, adding organisers were looking for 'models or escorts'. Images have also reportedly emerged of the people with dwarfism entering the venue, where the party was held. A number of pictures from the event have since been shared on social media, showing Yamal alongside some of his Barcelona team-mates, namely Gavi and Alejandro Balde. In one clip the pair can be seen singing together on stage. Reports from Spain claim that Yamal had earlier enjoyed a meal with close friends and family at the La Cupula restaurant south of the Catalan capital. View this post on Instagram A post shared by @lamineyamal There were plenty of glamourous women in attendance at the 18-year-old's bash Yamal's father shared a number of images from a separate get together with his 1.2million followers on Instagram. The Association of People with Achondroplasia and Other Skeletal Dysplasias with Dwarfism (ADEE) threatened to take legal action against the Barcelona star. ADEE president Carolina Puente added 'It's unacceptable that in the 21st century, people with dwarfism continue to be used as entertainment at private parties, and even more serious when these incidents involve public figures like Lamine Yamal. 'The dignity and rights of our community are not entertainment for anyone, under any circumstances. 'Shows or recreational activities in which people with disabilities or other circumstances are used to provoke mockery, ridicule, or derision from the public in a manner contrary to the respect due to human dignity are prohibited. 'When a person with social influence participates in these types of situations, the damage is even greater, because it conveys to society—especially to young people—that discrimination is acceptable. 'We must eradicate the objectification of difference and educate people in respect and equity. 'We will not remain silent. We will defend the dignity and rights of our community in all areas, and we will demand accountability so that acts like these never happen again.' 'We invite all people with achondroplasia or skeletal dysplasia to contact the Association: we are here to support, guide, and build new opportunities.'

TOWIE's Pete Wicks falls victim to 'fake' Wimbledon influencer who deceived him
An influencer went viral over the weekend for her Wimbledon posts on Instagram, seemingly showing the blonde, blue eyed beauty enjoying the sunshine while attracting attention from famous names She posed courtside in a mint-green matching suit, her blonde waves flowing in the English sun, and a table card with her name neatly placed beside a glass of champagne. Posting on Instagram, Mia Zelu shared snaps enjoying her time at Wimbledon, alongside stories and captions that matched her influencer aesthetic. She even caught the attention of celebs, including former TOWIE star Pete Wicks, who still follows the blonde beauty. And with 162,000 followers, nothing seems out of the ordinary. But Mia is not who she appears to be, as it turns out she is entirely AI-generated - a revelation that has left fans and her admirers stunned. Mia is part of the new frontier of ' virtual influencers ' - hyperrealistic digital personalities crafted by anonymous creators and powered by artificial intelligence. While her Wimbledon photo series recently went viral for its polished aesthetic and apparent behind-the-scenes access, what turned heads wasn't just the outfit - it was the realisation that the glam guest was completely computer-made. Her latest post, uploaded Friday, shows Zelu in a tailored double-breasted mint blazer, striking Instagram-worthy poses amid crowds at the All England Club. One image even includes a table setting complete with a name card for 'Mia Zelu.' The account includes hashtags, adding a level of what seems to be authenticity. Mia's account, which now boasts over 160,000 followers, describes her as a 'digital creator & influencer AI.' Her first post appeared in March, although she made her Instagram debut the day before in a post alongside her 'sister' Ana Zelu - also AI-generated. The post encouraged followers to 'show her some love,' and apparently, they did. In her first solo upload, Mia lounges in a white hoodie with a kitten on her lap. 'I'm happiest in the sun,' she wrote. 'I believe coffee tastes better in cute cafés, and I live for cozy hoodies and deep conversations.' Mia's growing popularity reflects a broader trend on social media, with some left concerned over the rise of AI-generated influencers. While virtual creators like Lil Miquela (with 2.4 million followers) have been around since 2016, the tech has become increasingly convincing. One of the biggest names in this new wave is Aitana Lopez, a 25-year-old pink-haired model created by Spanish company The Clueless. According to her creators, Lopez brings in up to €10,000 (£8,672) a month and averages around €3,000 (£2,600) a post - all while never missing a shoot, having a bad day, or demanding a pay rise. The company's founder Rubén Cruz said: 'We created her so that we could make a better living and not be dependent on other people who have egos, who have manias, or who just want to make a lot of money by posing.' Mia's creators remain anonymous, but whoever's behind the AI beauty has clearly tapped into a formula that works as she gains followers from dozens of brands and companies.
