Noel Gallagher kicked off his history of causing controversy at the BRIT Awards back in 1996, when he told INXS singer Mick Hutchence: ‘has beens shouldn’t present f***ing awards to gonna-bes’ as the star presented him with an award.
The songwriter took hold of the microphone as he and Oasis accepted the prize for Best Video and on the same night, frontman Liam, Noel’s younger brother, then challenged anyone to remove them off the stage, and the group mocked Britpop rivals Blur by singing their hit ‘Parklife’ after winning Best Album.
