The truth about Noel Gallagher's drug useFormer Oasis frontman and guitarist Noel Gallagher might be known for his music (who hasn't been to a party and heard a half-drunk rendition of "Wonderwall" from a random person playing guitar while hammered, after all), but he might equally be famous for a few other things, too. Once the spearhead of the Britpop movement, the singer-songwriter has been candid that many of his most famous songs — most of which were featured on Oasis albums Definitely Maybe, (What's the Story?) Morning Glory, and Be Here Now — were written during periods of heavy drug use, namely cocaine. While Gallagher reportedly quit the drug in 1998 (according to the Telegraph, he stopped out of sheer boredom), the performer has been candid about his coke-fueled past, even throwing a cocaine-themed party for his 50th birthday in 2017. Despite this, it's only recently that Gallagher has opened up about the darker side of his cocaine days — more specifically, that his euphoric highs fueled a distressing inverse for the star.
