Liam Gallagher Throws Oasis' BRIT Award Into The Crowd

February 17, 2010
Liam Gallagher Throws Oasis' BRIT Award Into The CrowdLiam Gallagher threw Oasis’ BRIT Award into the crowd tonight as he collected the honour on behalf of the band at the ceremony in London.

The group, who split last year, won BRITS Album of 30 years for their 1995 album ‘(What’s the Story) Morning Glory?’.

Appearing as an unexpected guest, Liam thanked the members of Oasis who worked on the record - except for his brother Noel.

He then proceeded to walk to the front of the stage, where he threw the award into the crowd.

Gallagher’s reaction prompted host and comedian Peter Kay to brand him a “knob head”.

The band’s 1995 album beat records by Dido, Duffy and Phil Collins to the award.

Oasis split last August following the departure of guitarist Noel. Both brothers are currently on the verge of launching solo projects.

The ceremony, at Earls Court, has so far seen prizes handed to Dizzee Rascal, the Spice Girls and JLS.
