Liam Payne Responds To Oasis' Noel Gallagher's One Direction Diss

Liam Payne is responding to the comments that Oasis singer Noel Gallagher made about One Direction.

“Does anybody give a f— about what any of these current pop stars are up to? Who gives a shit what f—ing One Direction do? C***suckers, all of them in rehab by the time they’re 30,” Noel sounded off in a new interview with Esquire UK.

Upon hearing of Noel‘s comments, Liam spoke to BBC Radio 1.

“The funny thing was, I met him the day the story came out,” Liam shared. “I didn’t know it was coming out, and he came up and said, ‘All right, mate? How are you doing?’ I was like, ‘Fine thanks, mate. Nice to meet you’. The next day I read the story and thought, ‘How sad is that?’ He completely dissed us. Nice to diss your fans, isn’t it?”

He added, “It’s sad because they genuinely led me to a path of singing. That’s something they should be genuinely proud of. They don’t think before they speak. You never know who was a fan of your music. Especially when you were as big as they were. Do it with grace. Good old Noel, bless him.”
