Liam Gallagher has declared war with 80s singer Adam Ant, it has been reported.

Adam Ant has threatened to 'take on' the Beady Eye frontman after a dispute over the 80s singer's comeback album, The Sun reports.

Ant, who is currently working on his new album, recruited the help of Beady Eye bassist Andy Bell much to Gallagher's displeasure.

"I've never liked people like that, like Damien Hirst - that's not art, it's commerce - and I've always hated stroppy behaviour, like that of the Gallaghers. Not the older one, Noel, he's OK, but Liam... his attitude, well, it's unacceptable," Ant told The Sun.

He added: "He told me there'd be trouble if I put the song on my record, but nobody tells me what to do. Nobody."
