Liam Gallagher brilliantly clarifies claim that he threatened to stab Sacha Baron Cohen in the eye

God love Liam Gallagher.

In an age when media luvvies and celeb friends are constantly trying to outdo each other in the sycophancy stakes, the Burnage native simply couldn't give a f*ck. And so when a spurious claim resurfaced that Liam had once promised physical harm upon Grimsby star Sacha Baron Cohen, the ex-Oasis man wasn't going to let it lie. According to Baron Cohen, during the 2012 GQ Awards, Gallagher threatened: "You know what, I'm going to stab you. I'm going to stab you in the eye..." It was apparently due to a joke that the comedian had agreed to make and didn't follow through with. "I thought to myself, I've never heard such a specific threat. That's a good aim," explained Baron Cohen to Conan O'Brien on a recent appearance on his chat show. Well Gallagher moved swiftly to correct the alleged threat, and clear up any confusion. A spokeswoman for the singer confirmed: "Liam wants to clarify that it wasn't just the one eye, it was both." Brilliant.
