Liam Gallagher: 'Michael Jackson Was A Bit Of A Nut Job'

Ex-Oasis singer claims...

Liam Gallagher has described Michael Jackson as “a bit of a nut job”, but acknowledged the late singer's musical legacy.

The former Oasis frontman made the comments in an interview with the Daily Mail.

“He was genius, without a doubt. Not my kind of music, though,” Gallagher said. “I preferred him when he was in the Jackson Five but then he turned into a bit of a nut job.”

The singer said Jackson's demise was “always on the cards”.

“Anyone who has their own fairground in the back garden has to go nuts,” he added. “I have a couple of trees and a garden shed so it keeps me well on the ground.”

Jackson died at the age of 50 in Los Angeles in June. His death has been ruled as homicide.

Meanwhile, Gallagher also used the interview to again speak out about Oasis' split.

The singer said he was “gutted” about the separation, adding: “I love being in Oasis. When I'm ready, you will hear my side of the story."

Last week, the singer told the Times newspaper that the Manchester band were “no longer” following his brother Noel's shock departure in August. 

Liam Gallagher is currently promoting the latest line from his fashion label Pretty Green.
