Liam Gallagher Gets Friendly With The Photogs

Cursing and punching out a stalkerazzi in front of your five-year-old son is indeed no way to act, Mr. itv anchorman, but neither is having a lead which claims (and relies on) Liam Gallagher having sung "Don't Look Back In Anger." Would have been a lot more clever if it wasn't a Noel tune. Still, is five metres legally within ass-whuppin' space according to British "zone of privacy" laws? Graphic designers? (via RS)

Well, the video doesn't show him punching. It looks more like he knocked the dude's hat off. Hardly lethal force.

I also don't think it's the worst thing in the world for a child to see. 5 year old children in Iraq have watched bombs and bullets rip their parents apart. Why should British children be so sheltered from reality?

so i guess liam's kids will learn that it's ok to smack paparazzi around when they hound you as you're trying to eat.

Ugh. If we stop talking about the Gallagher bros, they'll go away. We're giving them their power. Ya know, like Wal-Mart.

Ah, ITV news. The tabloid to the BBC's broadsheet, and I only ever watch it if there's nothing else on at 10.30pm. Let the man have some space, it's not like he wants to be famous any more, judging by recent performances...

FrankieLee, actually Oasis is the same, the big losers, nothing beyond Stone Roses, you think that they rock?GiL is right, really boring music.

Oasis aren't half as boring as Thom Yorke and Radiohead are now. Art project Miles Davis ripoff wankers making shite that you forget before the songs are even over.

Get a life OF--Oasis are still successful and you're a loser with nothing better to do than throw stones.

I'd wager most of you anti-Oasis people haven't even bothered to listen to their last album, which honestly blows Thom Yorke's piece of shit out of the water.

Liam Gallagher is excelletn. At least he's a proper Rock Star, and not some whiny little bastard with no personality.
