Watch Ali G mock Noel Gallagher’s Oasis comeback and try to kick him out of cinema

Noel Gallagher has been mocked by Ali G in a new video, with Sacha Baron Cohen‘s character taking aim at the Oasis reunion in front of a cinema audience.

De La Soul’s Posdnuos: “Tupac me salvou de ser agredido na Bay Area”.

The video was shared on social media yesterday (October 24) to promote Cohen’s new film Ali G: Who Iz I?, which arrived in cinemas a day earlier.

In the clip, Ali G enters a packed cinema screening and singles out Gallagher, pretending not to recognise him.

He suggests that the musician looks like “one of them Oasis twins”, before making him stand up in front of the audience.

The meeting comes more than a decade after Gallagher made a joke about Cohen’s character while discussing why he sent his children to private school.

O novo filme marca o retorno de Cohen ao personagem, que apareceu pela primeira vez no The 11 O’Clock Show da Channel 4 em 1998 antes de se tornar a estrela do Da Ali G Show e da comédia de 2002 Ali G Indahouse.

Ali G: Who Iz I? follows the aspiring Staines-based rapper as he discovers that his longtime girlfriend Julie is pregnant, prompting him to travel to America in an attempt to reclaim his former fame.

Cohen has faced criticism for reviving the character, with some campaigners arguing that Ali G perpetuates racial stereotypes.

Earlier this week, the comedian defended the decision to bring him back, writing: “The fact that Ali G is outdated and problematic is the very reason I resurrected him.”.

Gallagher, meanwhile, also appeared on the final series of Chicken Shop Date this week, joining Amelia Dimoldenberg to discuss the Oasis reunion, working with his brother Liam and the band’s future.

Quando lhe perguntaram quanto tempo alguém deveria esperar antes de reviver algo que já havia terminado, ele respondeu “16 anos”, referindo‑se ao intervalo entre a separação da Oasis em 2009 e sua reunião no ano passado.

The epic Oasis comeback has also been documented in Oasis: Don’t Look Back In Anger, which arrived in cinemas last month and is now available to stream on Disney.

In a four-and-a-half-star review, NME described the documentary as “masterfully done, with moments of irreverence and intense passion burning throughout”.

Oasis are now preparing to return to the road for their sold-out ‘Live ’27’ tour, featuring 42 dates across the UK, Europe and North America, including 11 nights at Manchester’s Etihad Stadium and six at Knebworth.
