Noel says exclusive guestlist at songwriting awards marks it as superior.
Noel Gallagher has said that the Ivor Novello Awards are more prestigious as they do not invite pop acts like One Direction.
The former Oasis member and now solo star is at the annual songwriting awards, which is being held at London's Grosvenor House Hotel today (May 16). Speaking to NME on the red carpet, Gallagher was asked why he came to the awards to which he replied: "Because clowns like One Direction aren't invited, so it must be a good one."
