Liam Gallagher has had to apologise to his fans after making them believe he had big news to share.

The Oasis frontman took to X on Monday 9th June to tease to his fans on the platform that he had a: "BIG ANNOUNCEMENT" at "6.30 am".

Unsurprisingly, this caused quite a stir among his followers, with some speculating that there were new band members set to added to the line up and others suggesting there could be "warm up gigs" announced.

However, when 6:30 am rolled around, it became clear that Gallagher had no such announcement and instead was simply winding everyone up after he followed his announcement with: “I WORK OUT.”

Taking back to the platform, he wrote: "Gotta admit that was good craic gotta you all riled up to ras".

Though most his fans understood the joke, some weren't too impressed by the rocker deciding to cause "chaos" and the Some Might Say singer was soon forced to apologise.

Taking to X, he wrote: "If I caused any distress and upset anyone this morning I’m deeply sorry that wasn’t my intention I thought it was a bit of fun I got it wrong please forgive me LG".

Seemed like the drama almost had the Manchester rocker considering if he should leave the platform altogether, although we'd take anything he says on the platform with a pinch of salt.

Meanwhile, Liam has offered fans an insight into how preparations are going ahead of the tour dates, including how drummer Joey Waronker is getting on with the band.

When a fan quizzed him what he thought of the sticksman and if he thinks he's appropriate for the Oasis sound, he gushed: "He’s the best and we’re lucky to have him I’ve enjoyed all our drummers but this guy is special".

The Oasis Live '25 reunion tour kicks off at Cardiff's Principality Stadium on 4th July and winds up in São Paulo, Brazil on 23rd November.
