Noel Gallagher, known for his grumpy demeanor, was included in the National Portrait Gallery's collection.

The iconic Oasis frontman, Noel Gallagher, has recently been in the spotlight for more than just his legendary music. A new portrait of the 57-year-old musician has been revealed and will be added to the prestigious National Portrait Gallery in London. Despite Noel's notorious reputation for being a "grumpy middle-aged man" and his disdain for being photographed, he is being recognized for his contribution to the music industry.

The buzz around Oasis is at an all-time high as fans eagerly await the release of more tickets for their upcoming tour dates. The initial ticket sale caused quite a stir among fans, but the band seems to be enjoying their return to the spotlight. Along with reuniting with his brother Liam, Noel also stepped outside of his comfort zone and posed for pictures, an aspect of fame that he openly admits he does not enjoy.

As preparations for the reunion tour next year continue, Noel is honored to be included in the National Portrait Gallery's permanent collection. However, he couldn't resist making a joke about it, stating that it's surprising because he is a "grumpy middle-aged man who hates having his picture taken." The black and white portrait, captured by photographer Zoe Law, will be displayed for the first time on November 29th and will eventually become a permanent addition to the collection.

This is not the first time Oasis has been featured in the gallery, as three other photographs of the band are already a part of the extensive collection. However, this is the first time one of the Gallagher brothers has sat solo for a portrait. Noel expressed his excitement about the portrait being displayed for future generations to admire, calling it a "very special" moment.

Senior curator of photographs at the gallery, Sabina Jaskot-Gill, also shared her enthusiasm for the new addition, stating that they are "absolutely delighted" to have acquired Zoe Law's portrait of Noel. Along with Noel's portrait, the gallery will also be showcasing portraits of other legends such as Sir Bobby Charlton, Orlando Bloom, and a never-before-seen picture of Kim Cattrall.

For Zoe Law, it is a "greatest honor" to have photographed Noel for the collection. Her work will be displayed in an exciting and innovative exhibition, featuring various artists. The gallery is always on the lookout for new and interesting portraits, so if you have a celebrity story, video, or pictures, don't hesitate to get in touch with the entertainment team.
