Liam Gallagher’s Style Icon Is George Harrison

The Beady Eye singer has his own fashion label Pretty Green and although he is famously obsessed with John Lennon he claims The Fab Four’s guitarist is a bigger influence on his fashion choices.

He said: “My fashion icons are, well, George Harrison always looked cool, all The Beatles always looked cool, Keith Richards, Steve McQueen looked good, The Jam, Paul Weller are all influences. The Stone Roses had a look - they were my first thing.”

The 38-year-old rock star admits he is proud of the success his clothing label has achieved and insists fashion is just as important as music to him.

He added: “I believe in it without a doubt. Look I don't sit there stitching it but it's stuff that I wear, you know what I mean? Or stuff that I'd like to wear. Fashion and wearing good clothes is equally as important as music to me.”

The ‘Bring The Light’ singer now has three Pretty Green shops in Manchester, Glasgow and on London’s famous Carnaby Street.

Beady Eye Ready To Conquer The World

Liam Gallagher is expecting his new band Beady Eye to be ''massive'' in 2011.

The group - consisting of the former members of Oasis, Liam Gallagher, Gem Archer, Andy Bell and Chris Sharrock - will release their new album, 'Different Gear, Still Speeding' in February and are expecting instant chart success.

Liam said: "I think we're going to be f***ing big, man. There's no point saying, 'Oh we might be kind of big,' otherwise what's the point? Because I know how good we are and I know how good we're gonna be.

"We're gonna be f***ing massive. Come back to us in a couple of years if I'm wrong and then fair play to you."

Will The Gallagher Brothers' Feud Ever End?

Will the Gallagher brothers' feud ever end? Let's hope not.

In the latest release from his post-Oasis band Beady Eye, off the band's debut full-length, Different Gear, Still Speeding (out in February), Liam continues his ceaseless war of words with brother Noel, again, this time riffing on the lyrics to Oasis' 1994 breakthrough hit, "Live Forever," which was penned by Noel: "Nothing ever lasts forever," Liam snarls in the new track, aptly-titled "Four Letter Word."

And it gets nastier: "You've had enough / Staring out of dead end eyes / I don't know what it is I'm feeling / A four letter word really gets my meaning," Liam sings. And the sonic sucker punch sounds good -- seductive strings swell with a muscular and, at times, psychedelic Britpop sound.

But one thing is for sure: You can take Liam out of Oasis, but you can't take Oasis out of Liam: In the clip, he stands stoic at the mic, sings coolly but tough in his nasal Manchurian drawl, and dons the unnecessary sunglasses that have long been part of his Britpop uniform.

And while Noel's presently laying low with his family, with some talk of a solo album in the not-too-distant future, we hope he'll retort soon, and help this sibling rivalry live forever.

All Liam Gallagher Wants For Christmas Is 'Peace And Quiet... Man'

What do you get for the rock 'n' roll frontman who has it all?

Well, ex-Oasis rocker Liam Gallagher is quite clear what he'd like this Christmas Day.

“A bit of peace and quiet, man,” he says.

“I don't want for anything, me.”

Burnage boy Liam, married to former All Saints singer Nicole Appleton, explains: “We had Christmas at ours last year and we had everyone around, burping and farting and then falling asleep all over the place. So this year I've decided we're all going to a pub this time, and then it's someone else's problem.”

Ah, that's the festive spirit...

Creation Records Documentary 'Upside Down' Screening Details Announced

See the story of Oasis and Primal Scream's label next year.

The Creation Records documentary 'Upside Down' is set to be screened next year.

Featuring interviews with Noel Gallagher, Bobby Gillespie and founder Alan McGee, the film tells the story of how the label that was home to Oasis and Primal Scream among others began, the bands it discovered and its financial dissolution in 1999. See below for screening details.

Speaking to NME, director Danny O’Connor described the film as, "A celebration of Creation, not an appraisal or review, a celebration of swagger and an attitude."

He also spoke of how the screenings won't be conventional viewing sessions. "Basically, it’s going to be like a night out," he said. "Everyone who buys a ticket gets an aftershow pass and we're going to have DJs and hopefully a few bands playing. Also, at every single one of the parties, someone from the Creation story will be there. They might be from the bands or just a player in the story, like Irvine [Welsh] or Howard [Marks], but someone will be there."

McGee said that the film "captures the spirit of Creation completely, Danny gets it completely, he did some much research, he knows it all. The film is bang on".

Creation has been the subject of two biographies, but McGee said that neither "can hold a candle to the film. It captures it completely. The whole thing was just a weird success and every time I watch it back I'm just shocked we survived as long as we did. Watching it also makes me realise, I think for the first time, that I actually like all of the people involved and what they did. It’s just lucky everyone’s still alive to tell the story."

Upside Down will be appearing at various film festivals around the world, with scheduled UK appearances in Glasgow, Stornoway, Liverpool and Sheffield. Tickets details are yet to be announced.

See Upsidedownthemovie.com for more information.

Upside Down will be shown in the following cities (some venues yet to be confirmed)

San Sebastian Dock Of The Bay Film Festival (January 7-9)
Goteborg (January 28–February 6)
Glasgow (February 22)
Dublin (February 17 -25)
