Green Day frontman lets fan play song with him – but instantly regrets it
With Oasis gearing up for their first gig in 16 years this Friday (July 4) in Cardiff, one fan couldn't contain his excitement, even at a Green Day show. Noel and Liam Gallagher buried the hatchet last year and will embark on a world tour over the coming months.
Meanwhile, Green Day, who are currently on a global jaunt of their own, performed in The Netherlands, Belgium, and Greece this week. At each gig on their tour, frontman Billie Joe Armstrong invites a fan to strum the acoustic guitar whilst he sings their 1997 classic, 'Good Riddance (Time of Your Life)'. A TikTok video captured the moment a young fan was given Armstrong's guitar during the Luxembourg show on Monday.
After a handshake and a confident start, the fan faltered, prompting Armstrong to question, "What's wrong? You don't know any more?", and then helpfully calling out the chords.
Armstrong, still smiling, encouraged him with "You told me you could play this!" only for the fan to suddenly and unexpectedly switch to playing 'Wonderwall' by Oasis.
The audience erupted into laughter, but Armstrong was less amused as he shook his head in disbelief and reclaimed his guitar.
"Please don't send him hate guys, it's just silly, he's a kid," TikTok user @ro_cocoa implored after sharing the video. "The Wonderwall of it all."
Offering an explanation for Armstrong's apparent frustration, one person explained: "Noel has said in the past that Green Day ripped off Wonderwall so that's probably why he reacted like that."
Another joked: "That was the time of his life... He will never get the chance to show Armstrong a great song again."
A third person added: "He knew he was being cheeky by doing that, he deserves Billie's reaction."
While a fourth exclaimed on TikTok: "Billie should have took the joke and started singing."
The clip later made its way to X, catching the attention of Liam Gallagher himself, with the the Oasis frontman quiping: "Best song of the night."
Earlier today (July 2), Oasis annouced the forthcoming release of deluxe new formats of their iconic second album (What's The Story) Morning Glory? - with unplugged versions of five iconic tracks that have previously gone unreleased.
The move celebrates the era-defining record's landmark 30-year anniversary, one of the reasons it is thought the Gallagher brothers have also decided to play to together again at last.

Love Island hunk sparks concern as fans convinced he's suffered painful injury – did you see it?
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island fans are convinced Conor may have suffered a painful injury before the show after spotting a clue on the show. The rugby player, 25, recently sparked concern after he showed off his pearly white gnashers while in the villa. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Love Island fans noticed Conor's missing tooth on the right upper row Credit: Eroteme 4 Some viewers think it may be a result of a rugby injury Credit: Eroteme 4 Many viewers have defended Conor's natural teeth Credit: Eroteme Eagle-eyed fans were quick to spot a tooth missing from his upper right set and asked whether it might have happened on the show. One viewer wrote: "Not to be rude in the dental situation?" along with a picture of Conor and his missing tooth. But many fans took to reddit to explain that the missing tooth was likely a result of him playing rugby. This person shared: "Dental implants are very expensive and the process is long. He might not mind missing a side tooth which is fine! Genetic condition or a rugby injury perhaps? It's really not a big deal or anyone's place to judge." A second said: "He's played full contact rugby for years, I assume that was the cause. From following other players, they won't get a permanent fix until they retire from rugby because the chance is high it will just get damaged again." "Conor's teeth actually give his face character, they suit him. They are clean and look nice. Also he's a rugby player they tend to lose teeth it's high contact," a third commented. Another added: "He's a rugby player. There is literally no point getting your teeth done before you retire. My husband was missing his front tooth from rugby when I met him…I sorted that straight out ha!" While several other people defended the star's natural teeth. This viewer said: "It costs a fortune to get dental implants for regular people. He's attractive in any case. Better than the Turkey teeth." "I'd rather have real teeth like this than those piano keys the rest of them have got in their mouths," someone else fumed. Love Island star sparks fears she'll quit the show after tense bust-up saying 'she's going to walk' This person posted: "Teeth are unique to people? You're being rude. We don't all have turkey teeth! He probably lost it with rugby or whatever but yeah.. his teeth are unique to him." Conor's time in the villa hasn't been completely plain sailing after love interest Megan was dumped from the villa during a shock public vote. Since then, actress Megan has revealed that Conor slid into her DMs in the past. She told heatworld in an interview: "It's so funny, right? So on day one, Conor told me that he followed me on Instagram four years ago, and I never followed him back. "But then since coming out, I've seen that he follows me on TikTok and he's actually commented on one of my TikToks. "Again, I've not followed him back or even realised he had commented on one." She laughed: "So, yeah, it's nice that he's still trying four years later. "It's worked out for him now, I suppose." Eagle-eyed fans went wild over the theory that Megan and Conor knew each other before entering the villa - after photos seemingly showed them at the same nightclub. Old snaps show Megan with a pal in a night club, while another picture supposedly clocks Conor in the same club long before they entered the ITV2 dating show. The speculation comes after Megan was voted the least favourite girl by the public after an ugly split from Tommy. The Irish star was booted out the villa after finding herself in the bottom three girls, along with Shakira, Megan and Toni. The brunette bombshell's departure followed days of drama after she cracked on with Conor while in a couple with Tommy.

Flight attendant reveals plane passengers' most 'disgusting' habit - and says men are the main culprits
A flight attendant has revealed the 'disgusting' hygiene habit passengers skip before boarding. Dallas-based air hostess Cher Killough, who has worked in the industry for five years, recently took to TikTok to call out bad in-flight etiquette - and took aim at people who don't shower before early flights in particular. Branding this behavior as 'unacceptable' in her TikTok, Cher revealed she thinks travelers should 'go to prison' for not showering before getting on a plane. In the clip, she said: 'There is zero reason that I should be smelling a stranger's body odour radiating off of their warm body at five o'clock in the morning. 'And it's always men, sometimes it's ladies who are having a lady problem that nobody told them about, but usually it's men. She added: 'Wash yourself! You are going to be shoulder to shoulder with strangers. Show up clean or don't come at all.' Elsewhere Cher revealed another annoying habit is when people play music and other noises out loud on their phones or iPad. She said: 'It's no one else's problem except yours that you didn't charge your earpods or you didn't bring headphones. 'Why are you making it everyone else's problem around you, Jail! I don't care if your kid is going to cry because they can't listen to Cocomelon on full blast that is less annoying than hearing off of their iPad.' People rushed to the comments to leave their own thoughts with some agreeing with the flight attendant. One person said: 'The body odor thing is absolutely, however if they are on this flight because another was cancelled or something and they had to sleep at the airport. maybe hand out body wipes....' Another added: 'Ever had to run twenty minutes to a connecting flight with luggage in tow? You'll sweat, my dear, and there may be an odour.' To which Cher replied: 'Wear deodorant ?? It's pretty simple, it works in a preventative way.' It comes after Cher revealed a further three annoying habits that she believes should be made 'illegal' on plane journeys. According to Cher, the most irritating behavior is 'manspreading' or, more specifically, 'manspreading when you're in a middle seat'. According to the Oxford English dictionary, manspreading refers to the 'the practice whereby a man adopts a sitting position with his legs wide apart, in such a way as to encroach on an adjacent seat' - especially on public transport. Branding this behavior as 'unacceptable' in her TikTok, Cher said: 'I've been a passenger, and had it numerous times, where men will spread their knees all the way into my seat section or the person's on the other side. 'It's just unacceptable. 'It's always the shortest ones that are doing it!' she continued. 'I'm 5ft 8in, so if I'm taking up just my seat section, then you as a little 5ft 6in man can definitely do the same.' Cher also claimed that 'smelling like anything' during a flight was inconsiderate to other passengers. 'It's already an environment where people are prone to getting nauseous, so having an extra fragrance on top of that is just not a good mix. 'But if I had to pick one, I would definitely choose someone's perfume over someone's body odor over because we get that sometimes,' she clarified. Lastly, Cher added, taking off your shoes and walking around the plane barefoot was a big no-no. 'You seriously need to go to jail if you are having your bare toes out when you go to the bathroom,' she continued. 'I see this all the time and it should be against the law and in general I don't want to see your bare feet at all. Wear shoes or wear socks.' The clip, which racked up over 7,000 views, was captioned: 'Don't get mad at the fragrance one in the cabin! Some people are extremely sensitive to smells (I'm people)' Cher's clip sparked a spirited discussion in the comments section, with several people agreeing with her advice. One TikTok user noted: 'When they man spread in the middle i make myself as big as possible 'til they get the hint.' Another added: 'If someone man spreads I just lean my legs against him. He'll move and retract eventually.' Someone else added: 'If he manspreads I'm doing it too and now making things awkward by our legs touching.' A fourth added: 'Thank you for this… I'm a fairly frequent flier with fragrance hypersensitivity. 'I had a woman try to wipe down our shared armrest with a fragranced wet wipe, once.'

James Argent still in Michelle and Mark's inner circle despite attack on ex
James Argent was reportedly on a holiday with Mark Wright and Michelle Keegan after being handed a suspended prison sentence for gender violence against ex Nicoline Artursson in Spain Michelle Keegan and Mark Wright were on their recent holiday in Spain with disgraced reality star, James Argent, according to reports. The former TOWIE favourite, who goes by the nickname Arg, was handed a suspended prison sentence in May for gender violence against former girlfriend, Nicoline Artursson. Despite admitting to the offence of gender violence in Spain earlier this year, Arg has continued to make public performances and appearances with his band The Arg Band – with Mark's cousin Elliott Wright publicly backing the reality star. Meanwhile, Mark, 38, has been friends with Arg, 37, for years and is still said to be close to the wedding singer, who insisted he was "devastated" after pleading guilty to domestic violence charges against Nicoline two months ago. In a show of solidarity, it now looks like the telly star still has the support of his pal after the pair appeared to enjoy a family trip away together last month when Mark's sister, Natalya, posted a TikTok video, which included a shot of Arg on a sun lounger with the caption: "Spend the day with me, holiday edition." Neither Mark nor Michelle included any pictures of Arg when they posted snaps of their recent holiday on Instagram, with a source telling The Sun the couple were sticking by him, even though they are "completely unimpressed" by what happened between him and Nicole. They said: "Arg is basically Mark's family, it was never in question he'd support him, though of course he was completely unimpressed by everything that went down between Arg and Nicoline. 'Mark put his head in his hands when it all came out, mainly because he knows he's stuck between a rock and a hard place. "Arg is his best friend, and there is a lot of loyalty there, but Mark has a respected career and now a daughter - he absolutely doesn't condone violence towards women." Meanwhile, Michelle, who gave birth to her first child, Palma, four months ago, is said to be cautious, insisting that she 'doesn't want any bad influences around the couple's daughter'. The source continued: "It's all so close to home and she has grown to love Arg like family, so she was devastated and incredibly disappointed, especially now she has Palma." The Mirror has contacted Mark and Michelle's reps for comment. Arg was ordered to pay ex-girlfriend Nicoline £250 as compensation after admitting a domestic violence charge in May. The reality star admitted his crime at a court in Spai,n where he received a six-month suspended prison sentence and a two-year restraining order. He reportedly inflicted injuries to Nicolette's neck, arms, hand and leg after attacking her at her apartment in Costa del Sol. Speaking out about the scandal, Arg later insisted he was "devastated", telling the Mail: "I haven't relapsed. I am still three years and four months clean and sober. "I am devastated by what's happened."
