Liam Gallagher To Move To New York?

Former Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher just bought his first American property, in the form of a two-bedroom condo in a New York landmark.

His condo, which sits on the 17th floor of the iconic Essex House, features a large living space, modern kitchen, and even a 40-bottle wine cooler.

Gallagher purchased the plush pad for $2.5million, $400,000 less than the listing price.

The outspoken British rocker, as the New York Observer notes, has been vocal over his distaste for the U.S., once telling Contact Music that ‘American gigs are soul-destroying,’ as ‘there are a lot of people eating pizza.’

However, he seems to have gotten over that sentiment.

The property was sold by Stribling’s Mary Ellen Cashman.

The Essex House, one of New York City’s many landmarks, serves as both a hotel and permanent residences.

It is immediately recognisable due to the neon sign on the roof 44 storeys up that also reads ‘Essex House.’

Located on Central Park South between Avenue of the Americas and Seventh Avenue, it sits squarely across the street from the southern edge of Central Park.

Gallagher’s two bedroom, two-and-a-half bathroom property comes complete with a modern kitchen, herringbone floors, a washer and dryer in the unit, as well as access to the residence’s health club and spa.

There is ample room for a dining area in the apartment’s living room.

Though his accommodations are decidedly modern, many other residences within Essex House maintain their original Art Deco styling.

The prime location puts the musician near Central Park, Columbus Circle, Carnegie Hall, The Russian Tea Room, and The Plaza Hotel, as well as dozens of elite dining establishments.

Unfortunately for Gallagher, there are two pizzerias within a two-block radius of his new apartment.

Liam Gallagher: 'Clothes Are Important, Man'

His rock star fashion label is a global hit and he'll still look cool at 40, the not entirely former wildman tells Luke Leitch.

As well as being the finest frontman of his generation, Liam Gallagher is a famously gifted dispenser of insults. The juiciest in this interview is aimed at Wayne Rooney's hair transplant.

"I'm not having it," cackles Liam from behind his red-tinted Lennon shades and mod-style mid-forehead fringe. "He looks like a f------ balloon with a f------ Weetabix crushed on top. He's better off as a skinhead, isn't he?"

Along with the insults and that swearing, an interview with Liam wouldn't be complete without mention of his brother Noel. The brothers have been away from each other and Oasis for several years now, touring with their own bands. Even their public feuding has ceased since Christmas.

"My mum told us we ought to chill out after that suing thing. I went, 'All right, cool'." He adds: "I can't talk to him, but I've never hated him. He's doing his thing and I'll do mine. But I did enjoy our little spats - since we called a truce the world's just boring. It's been hell. We need to get the party started again! Maybe in Japan…"

Ah, Japan: the reason for his appearance on the Style pages. Three years ago, Liam started his own clothes company. Named Pretty Green and dreamt up by Liam and his security chief-cum-Man-Friday Steve by a pool in LA, it was based on a straightforward idea: to produce the kind of attire that Liam, a self-confessed clothes addict, likes to wear. So think Beatles-y suits, Quadrophenia -ish parkas and polos, carefully cut denim and plenty of paisley.

Although Liam, unlike so many dubious celebrity "designers", has never professed to create the clothes himself, he does control the quality of everything - and stringently so. "If it isn't cool it gets binned," he says. "I know people might buy it anyway and not everyone's me, but that's how it is: you've got to look at every detail, otherwise you'll end up selling s---."

Pretty Green has since done pretty amazingly. In its first year of trading turnover was a reported £4 million, and there are 11 stand-alone shops across the nation. Now it is going international, says Liam: "We've got something going on in Copenhagen and there's Tokyo as well."

The company's first Japanese store opened last week at a party attended by several hundred label‑loving fans and Liam himself, who was passing through for a gig with his post-Oasis band, Beady Eye.

Liam's move from rock to retail (although he's still rocking) has not only been a success during a particularly difficult period for clothes sales, but seems to have come at the perfect time for a man whose fortune depended partly on record sales. These might have been destroyed by the internet - but you can't download a jacket.
"Yeah, you're right," he says. "No one's making money out of records so it has been a good move. But it wasn't a planned move, it just happened."

Gallagher is keen to avoid sounding too enthusiastic about being in the fashion business because, quite simply, he loathes fashion. "I don't want to get caught up in it," he sniffs. "I'm not hostile, but 90 per cent of the music business is run by idiots and I'll guess it's the same for fashion, know what I mean?"

To drive the point home, he adds: "I haven't got a favourite brand, I haven't got a favourite designer. I like what I like. I spend a lot of money on clothes so I know my s---. In fact, I probably spend more on clothes than 90 per cent of these fashion people because they get it all for nowt."

And although he stars in his own campaigns - as evidenced by the largest image on this page - he is even endearingly shifty about endorsing his own clothes. For instance, yesterday, he says, team Pretty Green dropped off some new designs during his band rehearsals. Suffering from a hangover, "I had to walk down Hampstead High Street from the studio with two Pretty Green bags. This bloke at the traffic lights was looking at me with my new clothes in big bags like Victoria Beckham would have -but whereas she'd only have one, I had two - and I could tell he was thinking I looked like a right ----."

He reserves particular disdain for other musicians who allow themselves to be dressed rather than dressing themselves. "I'll never have a stylist. If I like something, I get it and I put it on. Who are these judges? If you like something, you like it, and if someone else doesn't, well it doesn't mean you're wrong, does it? At least you went out and dressed yourself. If someone turned around to me and was like, 'here mate, take that rubbish off that you've worked your b------- off to buy and get this on you…" A look of withering froideur flits across his face.

He may despise fashion but Gallagher is perfectly happy about "growing" his brand. He is, he says, "passionate" about doing boys-wear on behalf of his sons, Lennon and Gene. "Lennon's 13 so he can start wearing the T-shirts but Gene [just 11] is desperately going, 'Dad, can I have a parka? Can I have this?'And I'm mad for getting them made."

Although he notoriously uses it to aggravate, a lot of Liam's ruckus-whipping rhetoric is, in truth, delivered with a self-deprecating wink. This comes out best today when I ask whether he plans to make Pretty Green perfumes - a question designed to rile him but which delights him instead. "Why not? I'm down with the fragrances. I love my Chanel Bleu - I love it, man - and I get non-stop compliments off the girls who work in toy shops, man. I put loads on, you can smell me coming. So I'd definitely do it, without a doubt. I've got no idea how you go about it, though."

Next month Liam turns 40. He plans a party - "just another party" - and doesn't seem worried about the milestone: "Bring it on!"

Gay Byrne Admits He Likes Noel Gallagher But 'Oasis Not My Bag'

He is known as a lifelong jazz fan -- but veteran broadcaster Gay Byrne (78) found himself listening to albums by Oasis recently before a major interview with Noel Gallagher.

"I already knew about them. Oasis wouldn't be my bag to be honest with you, but I didn't find it objectionable and Noel was a very likable fellow," Byrne told the Irish Independent.

Once again it was Gallagher's mother, lifelong Gay Byrne fan Peggy Gallagher, who persuaded her son to record an interview with the broadcaster for a forthcoming episode of his RTE series 'The Meaning Of Life'.

"I have never met Peggy but she seems to hold me in high esteem. When Noel came on 'The Late Late Show' in 1996, it was on Peggy's orders, and I'm sure she had some hand in him doing this recent interview," Byrne said.

Among the subjects discussed was Noel Gallagher's estranged father, Tommy.

"He spoke to me about the impact his father had on his life. It seems to be he wrote his father out of life early on. You are finished, gone, and no longer relevant. Sort of 'goodbye, thanks, it's over'," added Byrne.

Another troubled relationship Gallagher spoke about at the hour-long interview given earlier this month in Dublin's Merrion Hotel, was with his brother Liam. Their final row prompted the end of million-selling rock band Oasis.

"Will Oasis get back together? I'd say it's unlikely," the former 'Late Late' host said.

Liam Gallagher Dedicates Song To Noel And His 'High Flying Smurfs' At Japan Festival

Liam Gallagher dedicated a track to his brother Noel and his 'High Flying Smurfs' onstage in Japan this weekend.

Beady Eye played most of their debut album 'Different Gear, Still Speeding' during their headline set at the Fuji Rock Festival in Naeba, as well as two Oasis songs – 'Rock N Roll Star' and '(What’s The Story?) Morning Glory'.

Mocking his older brother, whose band High Flying Birds took the headline slot the following night, Liam Gallagher dedicated 'Rock N Roll Star' to "the one and only Mr Noel Gallagher," and 'Morning Glory' to "The High Flying Smurfs."

The following night (July 28), Noel Gallagher headlined Fuji Rock, kicking off with Oasis track 'Mucky Fingers' and following with a set largely consisting of songs from his debut solo album 'Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds'.

Noel also performed new song 'Freaky Teeth' as well as B-sides 'The Good Rebel' and 'Let The Lord Shine A Light On Me'. A four-song encore included Oasis tracks 'Whatever' and 'Don't Look Back In Anger'.

Speaking previously about appearing at the festival alongside his brother, Noel said that the pair couldn't have played on the same day.

Asked if they would ever be on a live bill together, he said: "I don't think either camp would allow it. What happens if we're on the same bill? People start asking if we're reforming, that's what. Or they'll ask if we're going to get on stage together and sing ‘Digsy's fucking Dinner’."

He added: "I don't need that and I doubt he does either. I'd rather avoid it all together, thank you."

It has been reported that Liam will perform a rendition of Oasis classic 'Wonderwall' at the Olympics Games closing ceremony with Beady Eye. Sources claimed that the chance to sing the track was originally offered to Noel, but the guitarist turned the offer down.

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds are currently immersed in a hectic summer of festival appearances and are due to play second headline at next month's V Festival.
