Noel Gallagher has apparently changed his opinion on Ed Sheeran - for now at least. The former Oasis star has revealed that he thinks Ed is a “dude”. The reasoning behind the singer’s praise for Ed is due to how honest the Thinking Out Loud singer was about his reasons for turning down a charity gig in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust. “The only one f***ing person that has ever ever ever said, ‘I can’t do it, I just got back from Australia I can’t be f***ing arsed man, I’m f***ed, but I will definitely do it next year’ – and I crossed his name off the list – was Ed Sheeran!” Noel revealed. Noel thinks Ed Sheeran is a dude.  “He actually called me back, you know what I mean, he said, ‘Right, I’m ready now, I wanna do it’, and I thought, ‘You know what, what a f***ing dude,” Gallagher told NME. “You’ll be there on the phone listening to someone blatantly lying to you,” he continued. “People say they can do it and then get their publicist to call up later and say, ‘Oh we can’t do it now, he thinks his cat’s gonna have a stroke that particular afternoon’. “You’re there, cajoling, with some **** who plays a banjo about whether they’re gonna turn up.”
