Paul McCartney was seen filming Noel Gallagher as he sang "Little By Little" during Oasis's reunion show at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena on Saturday, part of the Gallagher brothers' Live '25 tour.
The Beatles bassist and singer, 83, appeared to be the only person standing in his section as he took out his phone to capture the performance. The star-studded crowd included actress and producer Salma Hayek, 59, and actor Kristen Stewart, 35, who attended the show with her wife, writer and director Dylan Meyer.
Additional attendees included singer Rita Ora and director Taika Waititi. Photos and on-site reports showed a packed stadium for the Gallagher brothers' U.S. dates, which follow the pair's return to the stage after announcing their reunion last year.
Noel Gallagher, who also fronts the High Flying Birds, has been reported to have been writing new material on the tour. The Mirror quoted an insider saying Gallagher had been inspired by playing to large audiences and had "strummed some new tunes in his dressing room," but remained undecided whether the songs would become a new Oasis album or solo work. The Mirror also described Gallagher as being "in an absolutely fine mood."
Reports in British tabloids have linked the reunion to lucrative offers for additional shows. One estimate widely circulated in media suggested the brothers could each earn as much as £50 million if the tour continued without major incident. The Sun told readers that promoters have offered high-profile dates, including a proposed run at Knebworth House to mark the 30th anniversary of Oasis's 1996 concerts and speculation about a residency at Manchester City's Etihad Stadium. People close to the band, however, told outlets that no deals have been signed and there are no confirmed plans for 2026.
Oasis originally split in 2009 after a long-running feud between Noel and his brother Liam Gallagher. The pair reunited on stage in July when the Live '25 tour began in Cardiff, and have so far maintained a separation offstage while performing together. Representatives for Noel Gallagher did not immediately respond to requests for comment; publications covering the events noted that attempts to reach his team were made.
The Rose Bowl appearance is the latest in a series of high-profile dates that have attracted both long-time fans and celebrity spectators, underscoring the cultural interest in the brothers' return. While onstage performances and audience response have fueled renewed creative activity, the future direction of any recorded material — whether solo projects or a formal Oasis studio return — remains unconfirmed and subject to the brothers' decisions as the tour continues.
