Noel Called Me ‘The Fat Dancer'... The Insults Were Unbearable. It's Why I Left The UK

Robbie says Gallaghers’ insults still hurt

Robbie Williams still looks back in anger at the jibes by Noel and Liam Gallagher that forced him to flee Britain.

The singer had a long-running feud with the Oasis brothers in the 1990s and 2000s.

They traded insults and Robbie famously challenged rock frontman Liam to a boxing match at the 2000 Brits awards.

Former Take That star Robbie, now 47, gave as good as he got in the feud – but he says the insults, echoed by most of the rock establishment and sections of the media, were “unbearable”.
