Courtney Love’s story about turning down Liam Gallagher’s sexual advances in 2000 went viral days after Oasis announced their first reunion in 15 years.
“Liam played me ‘Songbird’ at 10 am right here in the Groucho,” the singer recalled in a resurfaced 2014 chat with Metro. “And he goes, ‘What do you think of me?’”
She continued, “I mean, he was lovely but had really bad breath from being up all night and his eyebrows kind of met in the middle… and I just thought he looked like a 13th-century serf from Monty Python. And I blurted it out loud. He didn’t get insulted; he didn’t understand me.”
Love also shared how her decision disappointed her daughter with late Kurt Cobain, “But Frances, who loves Oasis more than Nirvana, was furious I didn’t sleep with him. She texted me saying: ‘Mommy, you are an epic slut, but you never slept with Liam Gallagher!’”
Romance rumors between Courtney Love and Liam Gallagher flared up after they were seen together in a London cab that year. The Hole vocalist revealed how much she wanted to meet the Oasis singer before that night in an Instagram post a few years ago.
“I kept thinking, ‘Liam’s the talent! It’s not Noel!’ (Unfair, I’m sure. It’s them both.),” she wrote in a post.
Liam and Noel Gallagher have revealed their reunion for a 2025 UK and Ireland tour this week. They posted dates for several cities including Cardiff, London, Manchester, Edinburgh, and Dublin on social media along with plans to later extend the trek beyond Europe.
The official Oasis lineup for the upcoming tour is unclear right now.
