Lewis Capaldi and Noel Gallagher seem like they'd have a lot in common. They're both singers, they're both white, they both have hair...the list is endless.

But the two musicians - one a rising star from Whitburn in West Lothian, one an aging and bad-tempered '90s indie rocker - have been at each others' throats recently due to Noel's insistence on constantly slagging off Lewis in interviews.

Most recently, Noel Gallagher called Lewis Capaldi "Chewbacca", leading to the singer changing his Twitter username to 'Chewis Capaldi' and setting a frankly hilarious new profile pic:

And to take it one step further, Lewis took to the main stage at TRNSMT festival in Glasgow this weekend wearing a Chewbacca mask, and also launched into a rendition of Don't Look Back In Anger by Oasis - but he renamed the song "Don't Chew-bac In Anger".

He was also draped in a Scotland flag to accompany the Star Wars mask as he strutted onto the stage.

To top off the look, Lewis was seen clutching and swigging from a bottle of Buckfast.

It came after the 52-year-old Gallagher brother branded him "F****** Chewbacca".

Speaking to Variety magazine, Noel said: "F****** Chewbacca should enjoy his 15 minutes.

"The greatest day of his life that I slagged him off or called him an idiot.

"It's the greatest day of his f****** life so far. He's just thinking 'wow'.

"Well, I know you're Scottish and all that but f****** hell. It is like a third world country but for f***'s sake, man, you must have had a better day than this. Surely."

The pair's unusual feud started when Noel branded the 22-year-old an “idiot” during a Radio X interview.

Capaldi took it in his stride and told his Instagram followers he’d “peaked” joking: “Noel Gallagher has just slagged me off. This is dreams coming true.

"It’s Father’s Day, I’m being slagged off by a man who is old enough to be my Da’ and I’ve never been more happy.”

He then followed up with an iconic Glastonbury entrance using Noel’s “who is this Capaldi fella” interview before strolling on stage dressed as Gallagher himself and stripping down to reveal a T-shirt with his face in a love heart.

The home favourite was drafted into the TRNSMT lineup to replace Snow Patrol at after they had to pull out for 'medical reasons'.
