Noel Gallagher, the musician for Oasis, came under fire for remarks he made at this year’s Glastonbury Festival regarding wheelchair users.
The 55-year-old performer stuck behind to see other acts, including British rapper Jamie T, play following his set at the popular music spectacular on June 25.
Noel Gallagher receive criticism for mocking wheelchair users at Glastonbury Festival
According to Gallagher, who was interviewed on “The Matt Morgan Podcast,” he was originally unable to approach the stage where VIPs typically see concerts up close.
Instead, he chose to watch from the disabled platform of the tent with his pals, though he will acknowledge that he wasn’t first aware of its significance.
“This lot are with me, and we walked onto this platform – unbeknownst to us it was the disabled platform,” he said after displaying his all-access pass to the security guards.
Liam, Noel’s brother, also criticized him for the remarks while professing regret on his behalf.
In a post on social media, the Oasis frontman called out his brother, with whom he has a long-running argument.
