Wales Online<\/a>.<\/p>\nYet Yue labelled Liam’s comment as “completely not acceptable”. The Goldsmiths student revealed she had sold her ticket for the opening night of Oasis’ reunion tour, Live ’25, in Cardiff tonight (July 4) because of it.<\/p>\n
On Thursday, the 23 year old student decided to make a day trip to Cardiff to protest.<\/p>\n
“I’ve been I’ve been a huge fan since 2017,” said Yue. “All of my adolescence I was just listening to Oasis \u2013 it got me through life and the music really saved my life.<\/p>\n
“But I kind of stopped being a fan two days ago because what Liam said is completely not acceptable. As an Asian and as a Chinese person I could not deal with it just by keeping silent and accepting what he was saying.”<\/p>\n
She continued: “I just can’t participate in that anymore. Otherwise it will be disrespectful for my own community where I come from.”<\/p>\n
Yue also said she was disheartened by the lack of response to Liam’s comment. She said: “I felt people would need to speak up about it.<\/p>\n
“So if no-one talks about it, it just adds more pressure to everything. But I felt the need to say something.<\/p>\n
“It is not okay for someone to say something extremely racial, targeting an Asian community, on a social platform.”<\/p>\n
Yue explained that she had sold her ticket on Wednesday as a “gesture” \u2013 two days before she was intending on heading to the Cardiff gig.<\/p>\n
Although she said she was sad about giving away her ticket she said she would be “completely heartbroken” if she attended the show.<\/p>\n
Being an avid fan, Yue also said she had met Noel Gallagher a few times and issued an apology to the singer-songwriter for not attending the Cardiff show, saying she still admired him and his music.<\/p>\n

Despite Liam issuing an apology, Yue explained she felt like it was not enough.<\/p>\n
“It was not sincere,” she said. “It was not really an apology. I see it more as a PR strategy but it’s not even enough for a PR move because what he said was extremely controversial and when people pointed it out he said: ‘Whatever’.<\/p>\n
“He didn’t see it as a problem. He then deleted that tweet. So he definitely feels it is not appropriate for him to say anything like that.”<\/p>\n
While Yue said she would not be attending the gig, she visited Cardiff a day before the gig as a protest.<\/p>\n
When asked about her reasons for protesting she said: “The C-word is not acceptable in any circumstances.<\/p>\n
“If Liam said the N-word or anything against transgender people the media would stand up for that community. But it seems like it’s okay for people to treat and make fun of the Asian community like that.<\/p>\n
“[The protest] is not coming out as an attack to Oasis but it’s about defending our own right \u2013 it’s about speaking up for our own community. It’s about making the world right again.”<\/p>\n
She continued: “My partner, he’s white, his friends and people in the industry found it not acceptable. But they were just really surprised as nobody said anything about it.<\/p>\n
“I’ve been talking to loads in the Chinese community fan groups. They’re completely shattered, they’re completely heartbroken.”<\/p>\n
Oasis will be performing in Cardiff’s Principality Stadium tonight, Friday, July 4, and Saturday, July 5, with fans flocking to the Welsh capital in the lead up to the event.<\/p>\n
