She spoke out against ‘gatekeeping fans’
Noel Gallagher’s daughter has slammed “ageism and misogyny” from Oasis fans criticising attempts to gatekeep the band.
On Tuesday morning (27 Aug) Noel and Liam Gallagher confirmed Oasis were getting back together after 15 years, much to the fanfare of million of fans.
Understandably, there were thousands more people than spaces on offer across the 17 dates that will feature in the 2025 reunion tour, leaving plenty of disgruntled fans.
This has led to many longer-term Oasis fans criticising certain groups for taking tickets and sparking debate over the notion of people “deserving” tickets.
Anais Gallagher, Noel’s oldest daughter, who is a social media influencer has hit back at these people calling out “ageism and misogyny” among the ranks of fans.
She said: “Sorry, if a 19-year-old girl in a pink cowboy hat wants to be there, I will have my friendship bracelets ready.”
The 24-year-old was critical of people gatekeeping the band as she replied to a TikTok by Jose Cannell, who was highlighting people complaining online that “everyone suddenly loves Oasis”.
She added “What do you mean everyone suddenly loves them? Everyone has always loved them.
“They’re one of the most famous bands in the whole entire world.”
Anais wrote in her post: “One thing I won’t stand for is the ageism and the misogyny around people getting tickets.”
Josie later posted a follow up video showing expressing her excitement on Anais picking up on her video.
She added: “You can’t gatekeep the most famous band to come out of the UK if we’re disregarding the Beatles”.

Liam and Noel Gallagher will perform live together for the first time since 2009 when they play concerts in Cardiff, Edinburgh, London, Manchester and Dublin in July and August next year.
When they announced the reunion tour, anticipation for the dates was at fever pitch, with some predicting demand for tickets would be greater than it was for Taylor Swift’s concerts this year.
Oasis made the announcement at 7pm last night that every last ticket for every single gig had sold, with the band selling out in under 12 hours (not bad for a couple of middle aged blokes!).
Just minutes after tickets went on sale in the UK at 9am yesterday (31 Aug) reports claimed that tickets were being resold for £7000.
But now, ticket resale site, Twickets, have urged fans not to worry if they didn’t get tickets, as Twickets will have tickets soon as face value prices (what a mouthful that was).
Meanwhile there are rumours swirling that two more dates in Ireland are set to be added.
So, regardless of gender, no matter whether you’re old or young or have been a fan for 30 years or one week, there will still be chances to get more tickets.
