[@Keeleysound]

Brilliant! 😂👏

[@bigdaddy4069]

Well, his whole stage act is TOTALLY stolen from Ian Brown after all. . . . . Not to mention he's now a tribute act for Oasis and his brother's songs who in turn stole most of his tunes. . . . . . And of course the pretend 'hard man' act. Total fake !!

From what I read, Liam is amazing towards the fans, but his less memorable moments come against media members. Liam knows it’s the fans that helped make him into the rockstar he is today, not the media, so he shows his appreciation for them.
