Hollywood A-Lister Tom Cruise has been seen rocking out at Oasis’ Wembley Stadium show as the Mirror revealed he managed to bag 20 tickets to the sold-out show for his pals
Tom Cruise has been spotted lapping it up at Oasis’ show at Wembley Stadium as he managed to bag not one, but 20 tickets. The Hollywood A-Lister headed on down the stadium on Friday night for Liam and Noel Gallagher’s first show in the capital as part of their reunion tour.
He was spotted rocking out in the crowd as he was surrounded by other celebrities, including Goldie. The music producer and DJ posed for a selfie with Tom while Oasis took to the stage to perform some of their greatest hits to the 90,000 strong crowd.
Tom flashed a thumbs up to the camera as he kept a low profile in the standing section of the venue. The Mirror revealed Tom would be in attendance at the show, having been spotted belting out Oasis while at Glastonbury last year.
Millions of fans tried unsuccessfully to get tickets for the long awaited Oasis reunion, while others had a 4 tickets per person limit. But Hollywood actor Tom pulled in some favours and got up to 20 tickets for himself and his pals.
A source close to the band told us: “Tom Cruise is used to seeing some spectacular things in Hollywood and on film sets, but he has heard the new Oasis show is out of this world and was very keen to see it for himself. There are no stunts involved, but the atmosphere will be electric.
“Tom is excited to see the gig, and his friends were thrilled he was able to offer them tickets too. They are hard for even the biggest and richest people to secure.
“He is taking up to 20 people with him, and must be one of the few people on this tour who will be able to attend with such a big group.
“The story of the reunion between Liam and Noel after almost two decades would also make a great film script. So, perhaps if Tom gets the chance, he can speak to the boys about an Oasis movie. It would surely be a box office hit after the success of this tour.”
Liam and Noel Gallagher made their return to Wembley Stadium together last night for the first of their five dates in the capital. During Friday night’s show, Oasis paid tribute to rock icon Ozzy Osbourne following his death this week.
The Black Sabbath star died aged 76 on Tuesday, with his family confirming the sad news. Oasis dedicated Live Forever to him at Wembley during the opening show which caused cheers and applause from the crowd.
A black and white photo of Ozzy appeared during the track and at the end of the song, Liam said: “That one was dedicated to Ozzy Osbourne, a Rock N Roll Star.” He then launched into Rock N Roll Star.
The band previously dedicated Live Forever to Liverpool’s Diogo Jota at their Cardiff shows when the tour kicked off. In the final moments of the song, the giant screens on stage projected the number 20 on the Liverpool player’s shirt, raising emotions and drawing cheers and applause among the onlooking fans in the stadium.
Oasis anthem Live Forever includes the emotional lyrics: “Maybe you’re the same as me, we see things they’ll never see, You and I are gonna live forever.”
The Wembley shows have seen fans hit with the highest drink prices so far on the tour, with a pint coming in at £8.30. It is 10p more than at the Cardiff shows and much more than Manchester’s pints, which were set at £6.50.
