Oasis star Liam Gallagher has responded after Green Day frontman kicked a young fan off stage after he played the British rockers' famous song Wonderwall.
Green Day performed in Luxembourg on Monday as part of their Savior Tour, and, per tradition, brought a fan onstage to play the guitar as they closed the show with their 1997 song Good Riddance (Time of Your Life).
Things turned sour after the concertgoer started strumming the chords to Oasis' 1995 track, Wonderwall.
In a clip shared to Instagram, Armstrong, 53, is seen trying to teach the fan how to play his song, saying through laughter, 'Are you f**king kidding me?' before singing 'You told me you could play this one!'
When the fan started playing Wonderwall instead, the frontman exclaimed, 'Oh, f**k me!'
In a second video posted to TikTok, Armstrong is seen shaking his head as he takes away the guitar.

The young attendee is then led off stage by security.
'Nice try. Nice try,' the band's founder said into the mic before he started playing the right chords to Good Riddance.
Gallagher replied to a clip online, tweeting: 'Best song of the night.'
Critics flocked to the comments section to weigh in on the mishap, with one social media user writing: 'Why do people keep taking once in a lifetime opportunities from real Green Day fans?'
A second chimed in: 'The crappy thing about this is he not only ruined his chance to play with an amazing band, but someone else lost out too. Such a shame.'
Other followers saw it through a more lighthearted lens.
'Idk I think it's kinda funny,' another person chimed in. 'It's like being able to claim you rickrolled Green Day live and onstage. I know Billie Joe thought it was funny.'

Days before, Green Day played a set at Germany's Hurricane Festival, where Armstrong chastised a fan for squirting him with a water gun.
The band was performing their 2004 tune, Jesus of Suburbia, when the singer stopped mid-song and gave the crowd the middle finger.
Armstrong then went upstage to confront the culprits.
'I'll beat your a**!' the Grammy winner allegedly shouted before picking up his guitar and getting right back into the song.
The most notorious Green Day incident happened in 1994 at Woodstock, when a mud fight broke out and fans stormed the stage.
A security guard mistook the band's bassist, Mike Dirnt, for a wild fan, tackled him, and knocked out his front teeth.
Despite the chaotic incidents, the group has continued to tour over the years.
In May, Armstrong, Dirnt, 53, and drummer Tré Cool, 52, were also honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
The trio celebrated with great food and even better friends.
'I had a lot of things that tasted like Slurpees,' Dirnt told The Post at the time, while Cool chimed in: 'Mariachi!'
'Yeah, a mariachi band,' Armstrong said. 'We went to El Compadre yesterday, those guys are friends of ours. It was pretty nice.'

Armstrong, Dirnt, and Cool couldn't be more thankful for their star.
'Hollywood's literally been a second home to us since we started making big records with Rob Cavallo,' Dirnt gushed. 'Outside of the work and glitz and glamour, I think everybody can tell that Hollywood has a big heart too. As soon as something happens people always step up. You can see it with the fires, you can see it with a lot of different things. It's nice to get our hat tipped like that.'
Oasis, meanwhile, is reuniting for the first time in 16 years, after the band dramatically split up due to a feud between brothers and bandmates, Liam and Noel Gallagher.
Their last studio album Dig Out Your Soul was released in 2008, a year before the split.
In 2009, Liam, 52, contracted laryngitis, causing Oasis to cancel a gig at V Festival.
Days later, after Liam recovered from laryngitis, the band was supposed to perform at the Paris' Rock en Seine festival but never came on stage.

Two hours later, Noel, 58, released a statement on the band's website.
'It is with some sadness and great relief … I quit Oasis tonight,' he wrote. 'People will write and say what they like, but I simply could not go on working with Liam a day longer.'
Liam and the rest of Oasis continued under their new name, Beady Eye, and released two studio albums before splitting in 2014.
Years later, in 2011, Noel said that the gig that got cancelled due to Liam's laryngitis was actually cancelled because Liam had a hangover.
Liam ended up suing Noel, and demanded an apology. The musician stated at the time: 'The truth is I had laryngitis, which Noel was made fully aware of that morning, diagnosed by a doctor.'
Noel complied and issued an apology in which Liam dropped the lawsuit.
In August 2024, Oasis teased their reunion on Instagram, writing, 'The guns have fallen silent. The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised.'
The Oasis Live '25 tour will kick off Friday and Saturday at Cardiff Principality Stadium in Wales. The band is slated for a 41-date run.

Patsy Kensit breaks shoulder in three places

Patsy Kensit has broken her shoulder in "three places". The actress - who was previously married to Oasis star Liam Gallagher - has revealed she suffered a nasty accident in June which left her in need of medical treatment, but she's now "healing" and is hoping a holiday with friends will help her recovery. In a post on Instagram, she wrote: "I broke my shoulder in 3 places 3 weeks ago!!! I'm healing and a slight boogie with my besties I'm staying with this week will be a tonic for sure ... Have a great weekend." Patsy was seen with her arm in a sling as she attended a performance of Fawlty Towers The Play in London's West End on Thursday evening (03.07.25) just 24 hours before her ex Liam was due to take to the stage for his first gig on the Oasis Live '25 Tour at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, Wales on Friday (04.07.25). Patsy revealed the former couple's son Lennon will be at the first reunion gig, but she won't be attending. During an interview shown on ITV show Good Morning Britain, Patsy explained: "My 24-year-old son is gonna be there, and gonna have a lovely time, great for him to see all of that. I'm happy for his dad, I think it's a wonderful thing, but I won't be attending ... "I think I've said enough now about that. I send only love and light." Lennon, who was just nine years old when Oasis split in 2009 - has admitted he's going to go to as many tour dates as possible. He added to W magazine: "I can't wait. It's a massive, monumental thing, and it's going to be fantastic." Noel Gallagher's daughter Anais, also 25, will be photographing the Oasis tour and she's admitted she barely remembers their performances when she was a child as she was more interested in the sweet treats they kept backstage. She added to W: "I have memories of being super young at shows and falling asleep with ear defenders on ... The only thing I cared about was how many packets of Milky Way chocolate stars were in the dressing room." The Oasis Live '25 Tour starts in the UK in Cardiff on July 4 and will head to North America, South Korea, Japan, Australia and South America, where it will conclude in Sao Paulo, Brazil on November 25.

Carrie Bickmore sizzles in skimpy bikini while on holiday with Tommy Little

Don't miss out on the headlines from Entertainment. Followed categories will be added to My News. Carrie Bickmore and Tommy Little have once again fuelled romance rumours after going on holiday together. The pair travelled to Hayman Island with some of their colleagues from the Carrie & Tommy radio show as Bickmore stripped down to a skimpy bikini. Bickmore celebrated the trip away by sharing some pictures of herself showing off her slim physique in a hot pink bikini. Carrie shared a reel of photos from the idyllic getaway, including one where she sizzles in a hot pink-patterned bikini. She also shared a snap of herself in a low-cut dress as she headed to dinner with Little and some of their other radio station colleagues. Carrie Bickmore showed off for fans on social media. Picture: Instagram. Bickmore showed off her curves. Picture: Instagram The celebrity duo have been at the centre of rumours that there's a romance between them for months, with fans believing their on-air back and forth is far too flirty to be platonic. Rumours began after Bickmore split from her second husband, Chris Walker, in January 2023. The pair were together for more than a decade and share two daughters, Evie and Adelaide. Little, who split from ex-girlfriend Natalie Kyriacou in 2021, addressed rumours of a romance between them back in March, denying that there's any kind of spark between them. 'There have been romance rumours about Carrie and I, but unfortunately, because Carrie is in my age bracket (my Tinder age bracket is legal to dead), but I'm not in Carrie's age bracket,' he said. Bickmore and Little were on holiday with some of their colleagues. Picture: Instagram 'She only likes much older, powerful men.' Meanwhile, the pair both recently appeared together on the finale of The Project. The Project's longest-serving host, Bickmore, was close to tears thanking everyone she crossed paths with over 13 years. She left the show to fully devote herself to fundraising efforts for brain cancer. 'It's been ten years since my Gold Logie speech, since I started Carrie's Beanies for brain cancer and I genuinely, I wanted to raise $1m. I would not have raised over $25m if it wasn't for you guys at home watching. So thank you so much.' Comedic regular Little also went on to explain his motivation for joining the show. 'The one thing that I did want to say is to the people back home; my time on the show – which I will be forever grateful for – was just trying to make you laugh.' 'People at home, if you'd often have days where you wouldn't have a laugh – that's all I wanted to give you and I understand that it is a privilege doing what we get to do.'

I work my a** off, training 3x a week, daily sauna & cardio, adding animal protein back into my diet, hiring a chef who helps me meal prep and keeps track of what I put into my body in a calorie deficit, cutting out sugary Starbucks & full fat sodas & potato chips … I quit drinking for the longest … (but I'm drinking again cus I earned it!).'

'I've tried everything,' the singer, 37 said. 'Ozempic works because you eat less food, yeah? So if you eat right, it makes you feel full,' she said.

'The bottom line is, the way you feel about your body changes every single day,' she continued. 'There are some days I adore my body, and others when I don't feel completely positive.'
