Noel Gallagher: 'I'm Not Arsed About World Peace'

Noel Gallagher has reportedly declared that he is "not arsed" about world peace ever being achieved.

The ex-Oasis singer joked that he has no issue with conflict, as his outspoken nature and frequent feuding with brother Liam Gallagher helped fuel his success.

"I'm not arsed about world peace," he told James Merritt on Birmingham's BRMB radio. "A bit of war is good - it sorts men out from the boys.

"But I'm more about a war of words - I built a career on it."

Noel also admitted during the interview that he had hoped for backing dancers at the Brit Awards like fellow performer Olly Murs.

He asked: "Where's my dancers? I suppose I could have them - but what would the wife say?"

Noel Gallagher On Jamie Oliver, Gordon Ramsay And Downton Abbey

Noel Gallagher is gloriously good value when it comes to not sugar-coating his opinions.

The rocker, who has enjoyed enormous success with his Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds music, has shared his views on TV in a new interview.

Asked by Radio Times what shows he doesn't like, he said: "Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsay. I don't cook but that's not the problem: I can't handle Jamie Oliver's worthiness and I can't handle Gordon Ramsay's attitude - if you make a bad omelette, it's like the end of the world.

"Who gives a f**k? I'm from the school of thought that one eats to survive; one cooks to be a smart arse."

He also said he isn't a fan of a certain popular series on ITV. "And I don't like any period drama - Downton Abbey, all that s**te. Men with wigs on."

Noel Gallagher Wants 'Top Of The Pops' To Return

Noel Gallagher: "I would bring back Top of the Pops in a heartbeat"

Noel Gallagher has sung the praises of defunct TV show Top of the Pops, stating that he would bring it back in a "heartbeat".



Speaking to Radio Times magazine, the former Oasis man bigged up the legendary music show and said that he is grateful to have appeared on it in the past.

He called it a "British tradition" and called for its permanent return. When asked if he laments the passing of Top of the Pops, he replied:

"Absolutely, don't you? I think everybody does. It was fantastic to watch it growing up and it was great to be on it when it was still going. I don't even know why they don't have it on any more. It was a great British tradition to have Top of the Pops on a Thursday, and it gave you a chance to see what these people looked like who you were listening to on the radio, and we don't get that any more. I would bring it back in a heartbeat."

As previously reported, Gallagher joked in the same interview that he would consider becoming an X Factor judge for £1m post tax.
