Gallery: Noel Gallagher's 12 Best Insults

Twenty years after Oasis reached their zenith, Noel Gallagher has matured into one of rock's unlikelier elder statesmen. As he admits in an interview this weekend, 'When I'm in between tours and have f***-all to do, I sit around and I do become like a dad.'

Now middle-aged and returning with a second album for his High Flying Birds project, we take a moment to celebrate Gallagher's greatest achievements outside of music: his inspired put-downs. From Tony Blair to the Scissor Sisters, the elder Gallagher is happy to voice a distaste for just about anybody he comes across, and here are the highlights.

Liam Gallagher Named As Top Choice To Front Queen

Gigwise readers have named Liam Gallagher as their top choice to step into the shoes of Freddie Mercury as the future frontman of Queen.

The Oasis and Beady Eye rocker topped the recent poll, pushing the current star fronting Queen, Adam Lambert, into second place.

George Michael and Paul Rodgers placed third and fourth in the poll - with both having performed with the remaining members of the band at previous events. Fifth place was Scissor Sisters frontman Jake Shears.

Gigwise readers were not keen on Queen taking a hip-hop direction however, with Kanye West proving the least popular artist to take up the role. Brian May's new best mate Dappy was second-least favourite with Will.i.am, Olly Murs and Lil Wayne also proving unpopular choices.
