Britney Spears gives Liam Gallagher a tongue-lashing

Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher is never one to shy away from starting a ruck. So it's a surprise to hear that he found himself on the receiving end of a tongue-lashing from none other than Britney Spears.

Celebrities at war: Britney Spears complained about Liam Gallagher's raucous behaviour

The pop princess got the hump with the 36-year-old Manc after he threw an all-night party at the Four Seasons hotel in Dublin, the city where both had been performing.

Brit complained that their party was too noisy and Liam was being “inconsiderate”.

Needless to say, he didn't take much notice. We're told: “Liam was with members of the Prodigy, along with the Appleton sisters, and decided to have a really boozy session when they got back to the hotel. They started off in the hotel's Ice Bar and then moved on to the lobby.

As Britney entered the hotel they were being really loud and raucous, which was why she went mad. She started shouting saying that it was ridiculous that they were being so loud and inconsiderate.”

But her rant did little to stop the party — and even led to a typical Liam jibe when hotel staff intervened. Our spy added: “Liam just scoffed at her, and was overheard saying to hotel staff Britney who?' before continuing to party. This made Britney really mad and her dad Jamie had to step in to try and sort it all out. By this time Britney had stormed off.”

The Womanizer singer, 27, trudged off to her penthouse suite so she could have more privacy. Liam was without the diplomatic influence of older brother Noel. Apparently the pair have been arguing on tour and are staying in separate hotels. A spokesman for Oasis refused to comment today.
