Noel Gallagher is not a One Direction fan. That much we are pretty sure of, because he just won’t stop slagging them off.
The former Oasis star seems to blast the young X Factor singers in every interview he gives and most recently he’s not only criticised their music, but their musical genre as a whole and it sounds like he’s pretty wound up about the whole thing!
We can always count on the Wonderwall to be outspoken and controversial and in a new interview with GQ magazine, he turned his attention to the industry and radio sector, blasting:
“[It’s] pretty f**king dreadful, the music is. I can’t get my head round pop music. It’s all on the same frequency.
“It all seems designed to aggravate my teeth. You know music that makes your teeth hurt.”
Turning his rant towards Liam Payne, Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan and Louis Tomlinson in particular Noel continued:
“Everybody’s winning out of it. One Direction aren’t working in the local f**king Costcutter, so they’re winning.
“The geezer who’s writing the f**king s**t tunes – he’s winning. He’s got f**king new houses coming out of his earholes.
“The record company are winning – ‘cos they’re all getting their f**king bonuses at Christmas.”
If you are a Directioner, or the parent of a Directioner then you might want to look away now because he took his insults to a whole other level, adding:
“The young 12-year-old girls are winning because one day they might actually grow up to give one of them a blowjob. They’re all winning. No-one’s losing.”
Noel’s Twitter mentions quickly filled up with messages from users who didn’t like his comments at all.
Tweets sent to the singer and guitarist included:
“I hate when people like Noel Gallagher slag off pop music. It makes people happy and doesn’t change the fact nobody likes your latest album.”
“Ok I like Oasis but serious can Noel Gallagher stop he’s just being an arse I don’t care if you hate One Direction stop being a knob”
“I have no respect at all for noel gallagher, horrible man”

Peggy Gallagher
Noel Gallagher's mum is ''not arsed'' about the fact he and his brother Liam don't speak anymore.
The brothers fell out in a huge backstage row in 2009 which led to the breakup of their band, Oasis, and haven't spoken since and Noel says their parent, Peggy, isn't bothered about reuniting them.
He said: ''She's not arsed. We spoke about it once and that's it. How can you be bothered about two grown men in their forties who don't speak to each other? What's she going to do? Order me to call my brother?''
The 46-year-old musician - who now has his High Flying Birds project, while Liam has formed Beady Eye - says he doesn't really miss any of the former members of Oasis as he's a ''lone wolf''.
He added to GQ magazine: ''When Oasis were together we spent so much time touring that outside of that, I never used to see anyone from the band. I'm a loner. A lone wolf. I'd have made a brilliant assassin, a sniper.''

A extract from an interview with Noel Gallagher from the current issue of GQ Magazine.
Danny: Noel. You're completely in charge. What's the first commandment in the Church of Gallagher? A rule we'd all have to live by?
Noel: [Long pause, thinking.] People shouldn't start work before 10 o'clock in the morning. People shouldn't work weekends unless they work in the service industry and they're getting paid double time. Thou Shalt Not Work Weekends. I don't like workaholics. Don't f**ing trust them. Why are they working? I don't trust busy c***s. That's how wars start: busy f***ers. If terrorism had a weekend off, eventually they'd have a year off. Eventually they'd go, T* * * this blowing up shit? Football's on." Thou shall not be arsed.
D: What would you ban?
N: I don't like litter. I like that Singapore thing. You know - you get caught dropping litter you get your head chopped off. I'd have a bin on every street comer. If you're going to buy a doughnut, eat the f***ing doughnut. Don't have a bite and then chuck it on the floor. Eat the f * *ing doughnut.
D: Who would you ban?
N: The root of all that is bad in the world. All religious and political preachers. it's like a Rubik's Cube of shit titles - it'll be entitled The Incontinence Of Elephants. And I'll say "What's that book about?" And she'll say, "Oh it's about a girl and this load of f* "ing nutters..." Right... so it's not about elephants, then? Why the f * * * is it called The Incontinence Of Elephants? Another one: The Tales Of The Clumsy Beekeeper. What's that about? "Oh it's about the French Revolution." Right, f*** off. If you're writing a book about a child who's locked in a f * * * ing cupboard during the f***ing Second World War... he's never seen an elephant. Never mind a f***ing giraffe.

Noel Gallagher says his brother Liam is like a "Red Indian" when he's drunk.
The former Oasis rocker joked about a recent story in which his sibling tried to ride a dog during a boozy night in London, and he compared his ex-bandmate to Native Indians introduced to alcohol by European settlers.
He told The Sun newspaper: "Liam's got a touch of the Red Indian in him when he has a drink.
"When the Europeans went to America, they got the Red Indians p***ed and bought Alaska off them for a f***ing milk-bottle top.
" 'Wahoo! Firewater!' There's a bit of that in Liam when he's drunk. 'Wahey! Let's have a go on that dog!' I'm all right when I'm drunk, I wouldn't ride an animal, though."
The pair have constantly argued, with their feud leading to Noel quitting Oasis in August 2009 - and he insisted their mother Peggy does't mind that they don't talk.
He claimed: "She's not arsed. We spoke about it once and that's it. How can you be bothered about two grown me in their forties who don't speak to each other?
"What's she going to do? Order me to call my brother?"

It’s news to absolutely nobody that brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher – of Oasis fame – don’t hold back on their criticism and acerbic barbs, and in today’s Sun, it’s been reported that this week, it was Noel’s turn to fire several blasts across the bows of Radio 1, One Direction and the music industry in general!
In an expletive filled interview with GQ magazine, Noel began by lambasting Radio 1, remarking, “There’s a lack of soul on Radio 1…
“I mean, what’s going to be the future of chart music?”
Branding the station “pretty f****** dreadful” he added, “I can’t get my head round pop music.
“It’s all on the same frequency. It all seems designed to aggravate my teeth.
“You know music that makes your teeth hurt?
He added, “Everybody’s winning out of it.”
And of One Direction – who are of course Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan and Liam Payne – Noel said, “One Diretion aren’t working in the local f****** Costcutter, so they’re winning.
“The geezer who’s writing the f****** s*** tunes, he’s winning. He’s got f****** new houses coming out of his ear holes.
“The record company are winning because they’re all getting their f****** bonuses at Christmas.
“The young 12-year-old girls are winning because one day, they might actually grow up to give one of them a b*** job.
“They’re all winning. No one’s losing.
“The only people who are losing are idiots like me at 9.30 in the morning when you’re trying to get the kids out the door for school, and they’re f****** murdering one of Blondie’s songs.”

Definitely Maybe was released on DVD on the 6th of September 2004 to mark the tenth anniversary of its original release. It went triple platinum in the UK.
The DVD featured an hour-long documentary about the recording of the album featuring rare and contemporary interviews with the band and its associates.
Also included was the album in its entirety, which included "Sad Song", which was originally only released on the UK vinyl version of the album and also on the Japanese CD edition. Other content included live and TV performances of the albums twelve tracks, and the promo videos to "Supersonic" (UK & US versions), "Shakermaker", "Live Forever" (UK & US versions), "Cigarettes & Alcohol" and "Rock 'n' Roll Star".
A limited-edition release in the UK and Ireland included a bonus DVD containing more live footage and anecdotes.
There was also an accompanying made-for-TV documentary, entitled There We Were, Now Here We Are...: The Making Of Oasis. This was broadcast on Channel 4 in the UK at 11:30pm on Friday, 3 September , three days before the release of the Definitely Maybe DVD. The programme combined existing and unused interview footage from the DVD documentary and focused on the origins of the band, and the four singles from Definitely Maybe.
It also included a very rare clip of "All Around the World" performed live at a rehearsal session in the Boardwalk in 1992, five years before it was eventually recorded and released on Be Here Now. The DVD received the NME award for Best Music DVD.
Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds embark on a UK tour in September and will tour the US and Canada alongside Snow Patrol and Jake Bugg later this year.

Former Oasis songwriter finally ready to collaborate with Blur frontman but denies Oasis will play Glastonbury 2014.
Noel Gallagher has said that he is "interested" in working with Damon Albarn but refuted claims Oasis will reform in 2014 and headline Glastonbury.
Gallagher spoke about his friendship with the Blur frontman, as well as the future of Oasis, while at this year's GQ Awards where he collected an Icon prize. He told The Sun that he is up for working with Albarn but there is no chance fans will see him back with brother Liam and Oasis next year.
The Sun reports Gallagher responded with a firm "no" when asked if Oasis were reuniting in 2014 and that he added there is no chance of the band playing Glastonbury. However, his friendship with Albarn may move in a musical direction with Gallagher adding: "I like Damon and would be interested in working in something."
As previously reported, Noel aimed a jibe at Foreign Secretary William Hague from the stage at the GQ Men Of The Year Awards in London on Tuesday night (September 4). Appearing on stage to collect his Icon prize, Gallagher told the audience: "Welcome to the Tory party conference, by the way. Nice to see the Foreign Secretary here with all the shit going on in the world that he should be sorting out. Good for you."

Damon Albarn
Noel Gallagher
Rock star, philosopher, multi-million-selling Ivor Novello Award-winning songwriter… Noel Gallagher's position as the primary songwriting half of Oasis would be enough alone to secure him a GQ Icon award. But it is Gallagher's solo work - his debut album Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds had all the whole-hearted, genuine and with all the wit and rhythm of his former band - that has proven the most surprising. For all his younger brother's bluster, Noel seems to be writing some of the best material of his career. This year has seen him tour the lobe with huge success and even unite with Damon Albarn on stage at the Royal Albert Hall. For all the talk of a reunion, Noel on his own is more than enough for us.

Rihanna
Noel Gallagher has spoken out against Rihanna and her entourage, criticising the singer for courting a celebrity lifestyle and rinsing it for whatever she can get.
Gallagher was speaking at this year's GQ Awards, which were held in London last night (3 September, 2013), where he revealed his disgust at which the lengths fans and designers went to in order to reach the 'Diamonds' superstar, and how she embraces their gifts.
"I don't do rock star stuff. I don't wear sunglasses all the time - I tend to wear them when it's sunny," says Gallagher in an interview with GQ. "I don't have an entourage, and when I do it's pathetic. Never more than two people. "I was at a festival in Norway and Rihanna's just arrived with 100 people. Fucking small army. And I had to go into this room, which was all just racks of clothing and stuff that designers and punters had brought to give to Rihanna. And they all had these cards in front of them, saying: 'Dear Rihanna, we are such huge fans, please accept this $90,000 handbag from whoever and whoever'."
Gallagher also reveals that after seeing this, he took the opportunity to see how far the singer would go with gifts, and left a gift himself.
"I'm reading all these cards as I'm waiting to go in so I went back to my dressing room and got the little bowl of Cadbury's Sensations and left it there on her table with a card saying 'Dear Rihanna, please accept these chocolates on behalf of Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds'. And she took them. She fucking took them."
Gallagher also hit out at fans who approached him when he was off duty from his High Flying Birds frontman role, and singled out fans who asked him to sign inappropriate items.
"If someone comes up to you in Selfridges while you're buying socks and pants, and gives you a tube ticket to sign... I have to say, 'I am not signing that'. It's the argumentative soul in me," he tells the magazine. "'Why not?' Well, what are you going to do with it? Are you going to put that tube ticket on a plinth at home? Come on. Go and get an album. I'll be in this section buying socks for the next 45 minutes. HMV is downstairs.
"You can be there and back in ten minutes. Do not make me sign the back of a fucking receipt from Boots."

"You can be there and back in ten minutes. Do not make me sign the back of a fucking receipt from Boots."

William Hague has been berated by rock star Noel Gallagher for attending an awards ceremony instead of ‘sorting out’ the Syria crisis.
The former Oasis star ridiculed the Foreign Secretary’s decision to turn up for the GQ Men of the Year Awards ‘with all the s*** going on all over the world’.
With London Mayor Boris Johnson also in attendance, Gallagher likened the star-studded bash to the Tory party conference.
Mr Hague spent the day being tackled by MPs over how the government will respond to the use of chemical weapons by the Assad regime in Syria.
But as US President Barack Obama outlined plans for missile strikes, Mr Hague last night walked up the red carpet with musicians, comedians and models.
Pointing at Mr Hague he added: ‘It’s nice to see the Foreign Secretary here while there's s**** going on all over the world he should be sorting out. ‘Good for you!’ he added to applause from the audience. Gallagher went on to thank ‘Dylan, Lennon and McCartney, Townshend, and Morrissey and Marr and all those other people I have been robbing for the last 20 years’.
Mr Hague had arrived at the event with wife Ffion to present the award for writer of the year to journalist Charles Moore. But it was Mr Johnson he took home a gong for Politician of the Year ‘after delivering a spectacular Olympic Games’ and ‘soaring on a wave of popularity’ while ‘expertly dodging the incessant rumours about when, rather than if, he would set his eyes on Number 10’.
GQ added: ‘At the goings on in Westminster village seem increasingly stale and lifeless - hello, Ed Miliband - Boris never fails to take an eruditely outspoken view, and it seems the public agrees with him.’

Noel Gallagher
To celebrate the relaunch of the XFM website, we've decided to get in touch with some of our favourite artists and rustle up something special just for you.
First up, we have none other than Mr Noel Gallagher, who earlier this year curated the annual Teenage Cancer Trust shows at London's Albert Hall. On March 23, Noel performed himself, with support from none other than Damon Albarn and Graham Coxon.
It was a special night, alright. And additionally special because Noel played his song Alone On The Rope live for the very first time. The studio recording of it first appeared as a bonus track for customers of Amazon who pre-ordered the High Flying Birds album.
Now, we've got our hands on the live version of the track for you to listen to right here...
