AceShowbiz - Liam Gallagher has softened his stance on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame following the announcement of Oasis being inducted this year. Once known for his outspoken disdain of the institution, Gallagher now describes the induction as "a real honor."
In a series of tweets early Tuesday, Liam Gallagher reacted to the news that Oasis will join the ranks of iconic acts such as Phil Collins, Billy Idol, Iron Maiden, Joy Division/New Order, Sade, Luther Vandross, and Wu-Tang Clan. His messages contained a mix of humor and gratitude as he acknowledged the milestone.
“Reverse psychology vibes in the area Oasis RnR hall of farmers I mean famers,” Liam Gallagher tweeted. He went on to thank those who voted for the band, calling the recognition “a real honour.” He shared a personal reflection, saying, “Ever since I was a little kid and singing in the shower I'd dream about 1 day being in the RnR hall of fame it’s true what they say anything is possible if you have a dream.”
When a fan questioned his previous reluctance to be inducted, Liam Gallagher responded with a lighthearted explanation. He mentioned a conversation with his mother after the announcement, saying she advised him to “stop being a dick and go to the awards and behave.” He added, “you never know you might enjoy it,” hinting at a possible change of heart.
This new tone contrasts sharply with Liam Gallagher’s comments from 2024 when Oasis was first nominated. At that time, he expressed frustration with the Hall’s selection process and its board, telling The Sunday Times, “As much as I love Mariah Carey and all that, I want to say: Do me a favor and fuck off. It’s like putting me in the rap hall of fame, and I don’t want to be part of anything that mentally disturbed.”
He also took to social media in 2024 to vent his disdain, declaring, “Fuck the Rock n Roll hall of fame its full of BUMBACLARTS LG.” He dismissed the award’s validity and even urged fans not to vote, calling the whole thing “a load of bollox.”
Despite these earlier remarks, the recent tweets suggest that Liam Gallagher may embrace the honor with a more open attitude this time around. His mix of sarcasm and sincerity leaves some ambiguity, but the gratitude he expressed indicates a shift from outright rejection to cautious acceptance.
The induction will place Oasis alongside a diverse group of celebrated artists, reaffirming their impact on rock music. Whether Liam Gallagher will attend the ceremony remains to be seen, but his mother’s advice may play a role in his decision.
As the band prepares to be officially recognized, fans and critics alike will watch closely to see how Liam Gallagher navigates this moment in his and Oasis’ legacy.
