I. Obsession with body size in photographic evidence
So-called evil skinny era (2014-2022) in which Noel looks 10 times skinnier than a middle-aged man should look:
(last picture is taken on Noel’s 50th birthday. 50TH.)
Noel’s infamous fixation on his petite shoe size:
Even more infamous 28 waist:
II. Noel’s general tendency to hang out with (extremely) skinny people (and also heavily adjust to the women he hangs out with or is married to)
Noel with Kate Moss through the years (Kate Moss aka goddess of ed 90s and ed internet when I was around idk they might have new standards these days. And yet):
Noel with his ex-wife Sara Mcdonald (married 2011-2023):
III. Body image/food in lyrics, books and articles
sources: 3-talk tonight (oasis); 6-stand by me (oasis); 7-tour diaries (noel gallagher); 1, 2, 4, 5 found online with no source, if anyone finds it let me know
IV. Noel mentioning his weight or body size in interviews
1) “(Matt) …his Levi tabs are fake because, apparently, there’s no way a 50-year old man fits into waist 29 leg 32…
(Noel) 28!
(Matt) What?
(Noel) 28 waist!”

2) “I don’t know. I was quite fat in the 90s, towards the end of the 90s, drinking loads of Fanta and eating loads of KFC. Id like to live one of those days again. (…) Cos I was… I mean, I was extremely happy. Full of fried chicken and fizzy drinks. (…) Well, everything changes after you’re thirty, doesn’t it? The old metabolism slows down, and you go “Oh, hang on a minute, is that my thighs rubbing together? That’s an odd experience. Maybe I should go to the gym”. But I didn’t actually go to the gym”

bonus: admittedly bloated Noel after quitting coke towards the end of the 90s
3) “It (Japan) is one of my favorite places to go in the world cos I can find clothes that fit me, cos look how fucking skinny I am. It's unbelievable. Everywhere I go, I'm kind of, “You got that in an extra small?” “No”. Ah, fucking hell... “Have you got this in a small?” “No”. “Have you got these shoes in a size six?” “No”. You know, cos Europe is full of fat people. It is. It's full of fatties and they're taking over the world, and I can't fucking find clothes to fit me. But in Japan... jeans! Fucking loads of jeans. So if anybody's watching: cords, corduroy jeans, waist 29, leg 32”.

to summarise everyone’s free to make their own conclusions i’m no psychiatrist but let’s just be very real for a second. the guy has a full blown eating disorder and would thrive on ed twt. and also probably has given his little brother an ed as a treat once too
Obviously many things would've been different if the beatles hadn't been British but I think we underestimate the impact of the skiffle craze in england cus kids in America in the 50's weren't forming bands and making guitars out of mummy's tea chest they were trying to die in increasingly gruesome ways in their motor vehicles
If John Winston Lennon had spawned in SoCal instead of liverpool he would've joined a gay motorcycle club and crashed that thang so heinously they'd have to power wash him off the pavement and we never would've gotten the beatles. This is how I know the universe works in our favor
Liam: As I grew older, when I was eighteen— no, when I was sixteen, seventeen, I was a bit into Madness and The Specials and that. Y'know, earlier on and that. Yeah, they were good, when I was a young lad. Like The Specials and that, a bit of The Beat, didn't really understand it, just loved it, d'you know what I mean? And then as I get a bit older than that, I get into The Smiths; but weren't really into Morrissey, couldn't understand where he was coming from. I liked Johnny Marr. And when the Roses come along, and things like The La's and The Mondays, I understood that, I could relate to it a bit more.
(also this is a bit of an excuse to listen to Liam's baby voice. So cute <3)
