The former frontman of Oasis, Liam Gallagher has issued an apology of sorts to fans of Freddie Mercury after he seemingly took a swipe at the former Queen frontman in a tweet.
Gallagher who headlined at the Isle of Wight festival this past weekend, seemingly angered fans after he stated that Mercury was a ‘goofy c**t’ in a tweet that has since been labelled as ignorant.
The rather controversial outburst from the singer who has been known to voice his views and opinions in the past came when a fan posted a question which read: ‘Freddie Mercury – Bohemian Rhapsody. Liam Gallagher – Songbird.’

‘Last thing I don’t know why people get offended by the word **** I get called a good looking **** everyday don’t hear me crying as you were LGx”.
It is believed Gallagher’s original tweet angered fans of both Queen and Oasis who labelled Gallagher’s comments as ignorant.
