A love-hate relationship has bloomed between Pete Doherty and Noel Gallagher, the guitarist of Oasis. Pete wavers between talking smack about Noel’s band and wanting to open a pub together so that they can get drunk for free. Or something like that. Yet I digress.

Noel confirmed his mostly positive feelings about doherty in a recent interview:

Pete’s always been an absolute gentleman to me and my missus. He’s incredibly well-read and he’s got a good soul. I tell you what, he needs to wash his hands more, but that’s about it.

Can you feel the love? Please rest assured that Noel is still pretty much a complete prick, as some excerpts from the interview will prove:

• On Oasis: “We just believe we’re the best band in the world. We’re not arrogant, that’s just a fact.”
• On himself: “I’m not like John Lennon, who thought he was the great Almighty. I just think I’m John Lennon.”
• On the possibility of life on other planets: “If I saw an alien, I’d tell it to fuck right off because whatever planet he came from they wouldn’t have the Beatles or any decent fucking music… I ain’t going nowhere with them.”
• On booze: “I know I’ve got Irish blood because I wake up every day with a fuckin’ hangover.”
• On Kylie: “Kylie Minogue is just a demonic little idiot as far as I’m concerned. She gets cool dance producers to work with her for some bizarre reason, I don’t know why. She doesn’t even have a good name. It’s a stupid name, Kylie, I just don’t get it.”

Something tells me that Noel Gallagher probably once hit on Kylie Minogue, and she most likely laughed her ass off at his obvious boozy impotence.
