Noel Gallagher ‘gobsmacked’ by girl who asked him what he does for a living

Noel Gallagher said he was left speechless after a girl at a bar didn’t recognise him and asked what he did for a living.

Appearing on Absolute Radio’s Breakfast show to talk about his fourth High Flying Birds album ‘Council Skies’ and latest single ‘Easy Now’.

Sharing his love for going out and socialising, the Mancunian indie-rockstar went on to talk about an incident where he was chatting with a young woman at a bar who asked him ‘what do you do?’. 

The singer-songwriter said: “Somebody asked me in the Firehouse the other night, ‘what do you do?’ And I was like…I didn’t know what to say.” 

Presenter Dave Berry exclaimed: “Well what do you say to that, Noel?”

Noel continued: “Well, I didn’t know what to say because I’d never been asked before. I was like really? I change people’s lives for the better.”

The young woman, still not recognising him, asked: “Oh, you’re in the medical profession?” To which Noel replied: “Of sorts.”

Talking about the interaction, Noel said: “I was gobsmacked…I was like, ‘look, Google it, love…just put in ‘Noel Gallagher’, ‘High Flying Birds’, owt you want.”

He then added: “Put in ‘Liam Gallagher’, you’ll probably see a picture of me.”

The former Oasis member then went on to talk about the current debate surrounding Nepotism babies, and opened up about his next album.

Noel’s album ‘Council Skies’ – the follow-up to 2017’s ‘Who Built The Moon?’– is due out on June 2nd via Sour Mash.

He’ll perform the record in a number of outdoor UK headline gigs this summer. You can purchase tickets here.
