Leo Woodall Picks Oasis Over The Beatles & Crowns Liam Gallagher Ultimate Rock Icon
The 'One Day' breakout star revealed his music obsession, calling Oasis's lead singer the absolute coolest frontman in history.
By Nina BrooksPublished Updated 2 min read
Leo Woodall is officially taking a stand in the ultimate British music debate. The rising British actor has crowned Oasis singer Liam Gallagher as the single greatest rock frontman to ever grace a stage, placing the Manchester Britpop icons firmly ahead of legendary band The Beatles in his personal playlist. Opening up in a wide-ranging interview with the *New York Times*, the *One Day* and *The White Lotus* actor broke down his absolute life essentials and his deep-seated love for music. While he openly acknowledged that the Fab Four hold a massive place in his household history, his personal headphones belong strictly to the Gallagher brothers.
Why Does Leo Woodall Prefer Oasis Over The Beatles?
Woodall revealed that classic British rock music runs extremely deep in his household, though family loyalty only goes so far when it comes to his own personal taste. He explained that The Beatles are deeply embedded in his family dynamics. According to the actor, his father and his uncle still actively bicker over who originally played the first chord of various famous tracks. Despite that heavy Fab Four heritage in his living room, the star admitted that he finds himself spinning Oasis far more frequently on a daily basis. For Woodall, the decision comes down to pure attitude and the undeniable swagger of the group's infamous lead vocalist. He boldly stated that Liam Gallagher easily reigns supreme as the absolute coolest frontman who has ever walked the earth.

What Is Leo Woodall’s New Movie Tony About?
The rock-and-roll confession arrived while the fast-rising Hollywood star hit the press trail to promote his new big-screen project, *Tony*, which recently arrived in UK cinemas. Directed by *Nirvanna The Band The Show The Movie* filmmaker Matt Johnson, the A24 drama turns back the clock to explore the early life of famed chef and writer Anthony Bourdain. *The Holdovers* star Dominic Sessa leads the film as a younger version of Bourdain during a life-changing summer spent working inside a high-stress restaurant kitchen in Provincetown, Massachusetts. Woodall costars alongside him as Sal, a hedonistic oyster shucker who pushes the future culinary icon into wilder territory. Woodall's career continues to skyrocket with a string of high-profile projects. Alongside *Tony*, the actor has built a massive audience through key roles in television hits like *One Day* and *The White Lotus*, as well as upcoming feature films including *Tuner* and *Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy*. But no matter how big his Hollywood status grows, his rock loyalty clearly remains locked on Oasis.
