Gallagher: 'Lily Allen is a good kid'

Noel Gallagher has praised Lily Allen after she played before Oasis at the Rock Werchter festival in Belgium.

The guitarist wrote on his official blog that he had a "brilliant" night entertaining a "great big, big crowd" of 70,000 people.

Gallagher said: "Lily Allen was on our stage. I haven't seen her in a while. I've known Lil' since she was a kid.

"Her old fella [Keith] used to bring her round to that Supernova Heights gaff of mine in the '90s. A good kid. Works hard, plays hard."

Previously, Gallagher described the lineup at the festival as "staggering in its s**tness".
