Liam Gallagher has claimed his mother Peggy told him to "stop being a dick" about the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

Oasis has received a nomination for the honour for the last three years and the frontman hasn't hidden his disdain for the institution.

Just this year, the Manchester rocker thanked fans for not voting for Oasis in this year's Hall of Fame bid, however when the news was announced that the Britpop icons were set to be inducted, the Supersonic singer seemed to change his tune.

Sharing what appeared at first to be a tongue-in-cheek-response, Liam wrote on X: "I wanna thank all the people who voted for us it’s a real honour ever since I was a little kid and singing in the shower I’d dream about 1 day being in the RnR hall of fame it’s true what they say anything is possible if you have a dream LG x"

Quizzed about his strange change of heart, he added: "Well I was speaking to my mummy last night when the news broke and she thinks I may have been a little hasty with my perception of the organization she’s told me to stop being a dick and go to the awards and behave and you never know you might enjoy it".
