Ceci est la traduction adaptée d’un article de Nancy Dillon, originalement publié par Rolling Stone le 19 août 2025. Nous republions l'article originalement intitulé Noel Gallagher’s ‘Legs Turned to Jelly’ at First Oasis Reunion Gig, Says Liam Is ‘Smashing It’ avec la permission de son autrice. Notez que certaines subtilités et nuances peuvent différer de la version originale.

C’est du classique Noel Gallagher: l’artiste a décidé de faire les premiers commentaires publics sur la tournée de retrouvailles d’Oasis… en appelant son émission sportive préférée.


Mardi, Gallagher s’est entretenu avec les animateurs Andy Goldstein et Darren Bent de talkSPORT, peu après qu’Oasis eut terminé sa première série de concerts au Royaume-Uni et en Irlande par deux soirs à Dublin. «Je me sens un peu ébranlé aujourd’hui», a-t-il admis, après un week-end marqué par «beaucoup de chant, beaucoup de boisson et beaucoup de n’importe quoi».

Lorsqu’on lui a demandé s’il préférait parler de soccer ou de musique, Gallagher a laissé les animateurs décider. Ils ont immédiatement abordé la tournée de retrouvailles. Gallagher a affirmé que tous les membres du groupe avaient été «complètement soufflés» par les concerts jusqu’ici, ajoutant: «C’est difficile à décrire, en fait. Chaque soir, pour le public, c’est comme une première fois, donc il y a toujours la même énergie. C’est vraiment incroyable. D’habitude, je ne manque pas de mots, mais là, je n’arrive pas à l’exprimer.»

Même s’il savait à quel point ces concerts allaient être importants, il reconnaît avoir «sous-estimé grossièrement» l’ampleur de l’événement. Cinq minutes après le début du premier spectacle à Cardiff, au pays de Galles, il s’est surpris à penser: «Bon, est-ce que je peux juste retourner dans la loge et recommencer?»

Il a poursuivi: «J’ai déjà joué dans des stades, mais je ne vous cache pas que mes jambes ont failli me lâcher à la moitié de la deuxième chanson. J’aurais eu besoin d’une pause. Mais c’est quelque chose d’extraordinaire.»

La plus grande question autour de la reformation d’Oasis reste toutefois la relation entre Noel et son frère Liam, après des années de conflits. Contre toute attente, tout semble bien se passer. «J’imagine qu’une fois tout terminé, on prendra le temps d’y réfléchir, mais c’est formidable d’être de nouveau dans un groupe avec Liam. J’avais oublié à quel point il est drôle.»

Gallagher n’a pas résisté à une petite pique fraternelle en plaisantant que la voix de Liam, largement saluée pendant la tournée, était «de l’IA». Mais il a ajouté, sincèrement: «Liam déchire. Je suis fier de lui… Je ne pourrais pas faire les stades comme lui, ce n’est pas dans ma nature. Mais je le regarde et je me dis: “Bravo, mon gars.” Il a été incroyable.»

Oasis reprendra la route plus tard ce mois-ci pour lancer la portion nord-américaine de sa tournée de retrouvailles. D’autres dates sont prévues en Angleterre, en Asie, en Australie et en Amérique du Sud jusqu’en novembre. Lorsqu’on lui a demandé ce qui pourrait suivre pour le groupe, Gallagher a répondu du tac au tac: «Bon, parlons plutôt de soccer.»

Harvey Weinstein Prosecutors Won’t Seek Fourth Rape Trial

Prosecutors in New York won’t seek a fourth trial for rape charges against Harvey Weinstein, which were overturned by one jury and deadlocked by two others. A judge subsequently dismissed the third-degree rape charges on Thursday, The New York Times reports.

At issue were actress Jessica Mann’s claims that Weinstein had forced himself on her in 2013. A jury in 2020 had convicted Weinstein, but a judge later overturned the verdict. Juries at retrials in 2025 and 2026 could not reach unanimous verdicts on the charges, ending the proceedings in mistrials.

Why Club Chalamet Is at the Center of Paris Fashion Week Drama

Heated Rivalry star Connor Storrie has been one of the most anticipated guests at the fashion presentations, with fans and paparazzi lining up for hours in the Parisian heat for a glimpse at the beloved newcomer. But when Storrie departed his hotel on Tuesday to attend the Saint Laurent Men’s Spring/Summer 2027 show, the power of stan culture erupted into surprising violence. And one woman at the center of the drama? A 59-year-old writer and professional stan named Simone Cromer, better known online for her now-viral handle, Club Chalamet.

Cromer, a longtime fan of Dune and Marty Supreme star Timothée Chalamet, started her Chalamet focused fan account in 2018. But in 2023, when Chalamet began dating Kylie Jenner, Cromer became a polarizing figure in online spaces. After the couple made their first public appearance, Cromer hosted a TwitterSpaces for close to an hour, claiming the relationship was a fraud, that Jenner was emotionally and intelligently beneath Chalamet, and sightings of the two were causing Chalamet fans intense emotional distress. It gave her public platform, taking her from around 3,000 followers to over 40,000 — even nabbing her a Wall Street Journal profile in 2025. But Cromer also took heat from other fans, who accused her of instability, obsession, and dangerous behavior — claims she continues to categorically deny. (Cromer did not respond to Rolling Stone’s request for comment).

Little Steven Van Zandt’s $15 Million NYC Penthouse Looks Exactly How You’d Expect It Would

Close your eyes for a second or at least the duration of the wink of a young girl’s eye and imagine how you think Little Steven Van Zandt‘s penthouse apartment would look. Tiger print clashing with rainbow print everywhere? Head shop throw blankets over all the furniture? Psychedelic stained glass? Now visit 6sqft’s realty listing for the abode and see how right you were. About the only surprise is the French version of a movie poster for La Dolce Vita. French? In Silvio Dante’s home?

Van Zandt is selling his penthouse, located in a renovated 19th century church in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village, with the asking price of $15 million (or roughly $4,200 per square foot). The flamboyant E Street Band guitarist and actor purchased the three-bedroom, three-bath duplex in 2008, a year after The Sopranos concluded, for $6 million. It features 20-foot ceilings, stained glass, and an elevated patio. But it’s hard to tell what the raw space looks like since Van Zandt and his wife decorated it like the VIP area at a Hard Rock Café. It’s a look only Little Steven can make work, but you can’t.
