LIAM GALLAGHER JOKES ABOUT COLDPLAY’S KISS‑CAM INCIDENT, SAYING OASIS WON’T JUDGE CHEATERS AT THEIR SHOWS
By Tom Hargreaves – July 22, 2025
In true Liam Gallagher fashion, the Manchester icon managed to turn a tender moment into a headline-grabbing riot of laughter and swearing during Oasis’ triumphant homecoming show at Heaton Park on Sunday night (July 20).
The concert—already destined to be historic as part of Oasis’ long‑awaited reunion tour—was marked by blistering renditions of classics, deafening sing‑alongs, and Liam’s unmistakable stage banter. But it was his cheeky reference to Coldplay’s recent kiss‑cam controversy that had fans roaring.
The Moment That Set Off the Laughter
About halfway through the set, after a soaring version of Champagne Supernova, Liam took a moment to scan the packed Manchester crowd. Under the night sky, tens of thousands of fans swayed shoulder to shoulder, arms draped over mates and strangers alike.
“Do we have any lovebirds in the house?” Liam drawled, pacing the stage in his parka, mic stand tilted just so. The audience cheered, expecting maybe a shout‑out to couples or a dedication to his fiancée.
Instead, Liam smirked, leaned into the mic, and fired off:
“Don’t worry, we don’t got any of that Coldplay snidey fing camera sht. Doesn’t matter to us who you’re fing mingling with, or tingling with, or fing fingering with. It’s none of our f*ing business.”
The crowd erupted—some laughing, some gasping, most of them recording the moment in disbelief. Even Noel Gallagher, stoic as ever with his guitar slung low, cracked a grin and shook his head as if to say, “That’s Liam for you.”
A Jab at Coldplay’s Viral Kiss‑Cam Drama
The joke, of course, was a pointed nod to the incident that had gone viral just a week prior. During a Coldplay show in Barcelona, a kiss‑cam moment broadcast on the big screens had accidentally caught a man with someone who was not his partner. The clip spread across social media like wildfire, leading to a storm of memes, think‑pieces, and awkward discussions about privacy at live shows.
Coldplay later issued a lighthearted statement apologizing for any unintended fallout, but the story had already cemented itself as one of those “only in 2025” moments in music culture. Liam, never one to miss a chance to stir the pot, clearly couldn’t resist.
“Slide Away” for the Lovers—Cheaters Included
After the laughter died down, Liam raised a hand, his voice softening.
“This one’s for the lovebirds, anyway,” he said. And with that, the opening chords of Slide Away rang out across Heaton Park—a song soaked in longing and heartbreak, a ballad that has defined relationships and breakups for generations of Oasis fans.
Couples held each other close. Strangers sang into each other’s faces. And somewhere in that massive crowd, you could almost feel the collective shrug from Liam’s earlier comment—an acknowledgment that rock and roll isn’t about judgment, it’s about the moment.
Fans React: “Only Liam Could Say That”
Social media lit up within minutes. Clips of Liam’s rant hit X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and TikTok, quickly trending under hashtags like #LiamVsColdplay and #OasisHeatonPark.
One fan tweeted:
“I came for Wonderwall, I stayed for Liam calling out Coldplay’s kiss‑cam 😂 Absolute legend.”
Another posted on Instagram Stories with a shaky video of the moment:
“The man has no filter and I love him for it. Rock ’n’ roll forever.”
Even some Coldplay fans joined in the fun. “Honestly,” one commented on Reddit, “Liam’s right. That kiss‑cam thing was a bit much. Also… wish I was at that Oasis gig.”
