Orlando Bloom pays tribute to Oasis as he misses reunion tour amid Katy split
Orlando Bloom seemed to be in good spirits despite his relationship with Katy Perry coming to an end. The actor and singer confirmed their split earlier this month as they entered a "new relationship dynamic".
However, despite the breakdown of their coupling, it appears that the actor is still keeping his spirits high. Taking to his Instagram Stories, the star was seen on a boat at sea.
He was singing along to Oasis' song Live Forever as the waves were seen in the background. As he tagged the Britpop band in the upload, Orlando broke from his sing-along to say: "It's gonna be karaoke all night," before he flashed a smile at the camera.
It comes at Noel and Liam Gallagher get ready for the second night of the Manchester leg of their epic reunion tour. The first night saw a star-studded audience join them at Heaton Park, with football stars Jack Grealish and Pep Guardiola in the VIP section.
It remains unknown if Orlando will attend any of the Oasis gigs as he is clearly a fan. What was confirmed, though, was the ending of Orlando and Katy's relationship after nine years.
The decision to call it quits comes six years after the Pirates of The Caribbean actor popped the question. The pair's representatives said: "Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on coparenting.
"They will continue to be seen together as a family, as their shared priority is - and always will be - raising their daughter with love, stability and mutual respect."
An insider had previously said before the official announcement that they had agreed on an amicable split: "Katy and Orlando have split but are amicable," a source said.
"It's not contentious at the moment. Katy is, of course, upset but is relieved not to have to go through another divorce, as that was the worst time in her life."
There were initial hints of trouble on Orlando's Instagram stories on July 2. At the time, he shared a poignant message from Carl Gustav Jung which read: "Loneliness does not come from having no people about one, but from being unable to communicate the things that seem important to oneself."
The post came days after he had also quoted Buddha on the platform: "Each day is a new beginning," he posted. "What we do today is what matters most."
Following the couple's engagement, they welcomed their daughter to the world. In 2020, they celebrated the arrival of Daisy Dove. The pair's split also comes as Katy announced her departure from American Idol after a seven-season stint. She is said to have instead shifted focus to her upcoming tunes.

Liam Gallagher's split from Patsy Kensit sparked a Wembley nightmare that still haunts Oasis
As the Gallagher brothers return to the stage at London's Wembley Stadium, Noel recalls one of the last times Oasis played there as one of the worst nights of his life Manchester rock legends Oasis are gearing up to headline seven nights at Wembley Stadium, with the first show kicking off this evening. The gigs are part of the Gallagher brothers' highly anticipated UK and Ireland reunion tour and fans are buzzing with excitement. However, a past Wembley gig still lingers in the band's memory. Their 2000 show at the iconic venue is remembered by Noel Gallagher as 'dreadful' and it has gone down in music history as one of their most cringe worthy moments, something both Noel and Liam have publicly regretted. As anticipation builds for the 2025 reunion dates, fans will be hoping for a far more triumphant return to Wembley, the Mirror reports. Tonight's (July 25) gig marks the first time Oasis has played the Wembley Stadium venue since July 2009. The gig came just weeks after the Gallagher brothers split. It was during the Standing on the Shoulder of Giants tour in 2000 that a now in-famous slurred performance unfolded - today though the Gallagher brothers are older and perhaps a bit wiser than they were 25 years ago. Their second night at Wembley Stadium in July 2000 was meant to be a major moment, filmed for a live album and TV broadcast. But things quickly went off the rails, becoming a notorious disaster. Reflecting on the performance years later in 2017, Noel said that Liam should 'hang his head in shame' over what happened that night. At the time, frontman Liam Gallagher appeared drunk and was slurring lyrics, ranting expletives and sharing personal details on his private life in between songs. Looking back on the night in a 2017 interview with Radio X, Noel called it a 'low point in Oasis.' He said: "It was a horrible two-and-a-half hours on stage. Liam can hang his head in shame. It was dreadful." During the performance, Liam made slurred remarks about his breakup with actress and model Patsy Kensit. The couple officially confirmed their divorce in September 2000, ending their three year marriage. Despite their split, they shared happier times and have a son together, Lennon. Liam and Patsy's break-up was finalised at the London Divorce Court, where Patsy was granted a decree nisi on the grounds of Liams "unreasonable behaviour." However, in recent years Liam has admitted he has now stopped drinking before he's set to go on stage. Speaking to Radio X, he said: "I've not drank booze on stage since that famous Wembley gig. Remember that one where it all went a bit... " "Apparently people like that kind of thing but now I steer clear of all of that, do you know what I mean? It's just water man, stuff like that," he concluded. Despite the younger Gallagher brother's now sober performances, the in-famous uncut footage from 2000 is still available online. The band's Familiar to Millions release ended up externalising the chaotic show - and vocals were edited to salvage the recordings. Now, 25 years on, despite all this, Oasis fans have never lost love for the indie duo, as thousands gather in London to see Noel and Liam take the stage.

Oasis fans discover new genius way of watching the sold-out shows for free
A pair of Oasis fans who didn't get tickets to their sold-out Manchester shows found a novel way to see the band instead - and even the Gallaghers were impressed Two Oasis fans who failed to get tickets to the band's sold-out tour found a genius way to watch their homecoming gigs at Manchester's Heaton Park. Posting a video to TikTok, @softgirlswhohikle shared a clip of the male fans, who might have got a better view of the stage than most people in the crowds. "No tickets for Oasis? Get the cherry picker out!" the caption said. "At least they didn't forget their bucket hats," they added. The post quickly racked up more than 160,000 likes, with fans saying both Oasis and Liam Gallagher and brother Noel Gallagher reposted the short clip to their own social media accounts. Oasis fans are only just realising why Noel Gallagher always has a straw in his mouth before gigs Oasis fan sneaks into Heaton Park gig without ticket after hatching this genius plan And people were impressed with the Oasis fans' efforts, with one referencing the astronomical price of the tickets - some of which reached £500 – in the comments: "Cheaper to hire than paying for a ticket." Another posted: "This is definitely maybe iconic." A third asked: "Genius! Are they taking bookings? Asking for a friend." A fourth joked: "That's Bez and Shaun Ryder [from the Happy Mondays]." A fifth added: "Well done lads... I'm surprised the council didn't try and put a fence around it!" While a sixth added: "Champagne Supernova in the SKYYYYYYYY!!!" After kicking off their reunion tour in Cardiff on Friday, July 4, Oasis have already played five nights in their native Manchester at Heaton Park. Tonight (Friday, July 25) is the first night of another five-night stretch, this time at London's Wembley Stadium.

It became one of their final gigs before they sensationally split in Paris later on that year. But the venue doesn't hold good memories for older brother Noel, 58, who previously tore into 'our kid' Liam, 52, over a previous performance. Describing a gig in the year 2000 there as their 'worst ever', he declared: "That was the low point in Oasis. It was a horrible two-and-a-half hour on stage. Liam can hang his head in shame. It was dreadful." So the band will be pulling out all the stops to make sure the next five nights are ones to remember for all the right reasons. After their London gigs, they will go on to play dates in Edinburgh and Dublin, before taking the tour international. After a 16-year feud, so far Liam and Noel are holding it together on tour – and were even spotted holding hands on stage. Though things appear to be fine between the brothers now, Liam recently opened up to reveal what his one major regret about the band was. A fan asked him on social media: "How does it feel singing songs with ur brother again? Like old times?" Liam responded: "You know what it's spiritual, but I can't help think about all those wasted years, what a waste of PRECIOUS time." But could fans see the once-warring brothers again after their upcoming tour? Replying to a fan, Liam teased: "Let's see how this tour goes and if we still love each other after it." viagogo and resale tickets Sites such as viagogo, Stubhub, and Vivid Seats allow fans to buy resale tickets from other fans. However, it is important to note that ticket conditions often prohibit resale after initial purchase. Those tickets may not be valid for admittance to gigs. Fans intending to buy tickets for live events through resale websites should check the ticket terms and conditions, to confirm whether resale is prohibited, before they buy. Ticket terms and conditions can be checked with the original seller, such as Ticketmaster or Live Nation. If resale is prohibited, tickets bought second-hand could be voided and admission to the event refused.
