Oasis Star Noel Gallagher's Shocking Revelation: 'I Took Cocaine In Downing St Toilet Reserved For The Queen'

At the height of the Brit-pop era in the Nineties, Noel Gallagher was one of the hardest partying rock stars in the business.

But the Oasis star has now made a revelation that surpasses all the band's previous stories of hedonism.

He says he took cocaine in the Queen's toilet at Downing Street.

The guitarist confessed that he took drugs in a special lavatory at the Prime Minister's residence - the loo is reserved exclusively for the Queen - during a reception to meet Tony Blair in 1997.

Noel, 41, who says he gave up drugs the following year, joked: 'As I remember, it was quite nice. It had a velvet seat and everything.'

The plush toilet at No10 can be seen during guided tours and was installed for the exclusive use of the ruling monarch. But that didn't stop Noel.

He added: 'She's got her own toilet which no-one else is allowed in. These were the days of the revolution.

'Someone said, "Do you want to have a look in the Queen's bog?" I said, "Of course".'

And the rest, as they say, is history. The Wonderwall singer made his confession to his pal, comedian Russell Brand, on his Radio 2 show.

Noel, a father of two, has made no secret of taking drugs in the past, and recently claimed that all the songs he wrote before 1997 were done with the help of 'the old Colombian marching powder".
He added: "Don't forget, I was on drugs before I was even in a band. The whole of the first three albums were written on drugs. " I think, ' Maybe I should get back into taking drugs, and then it would be brilliant again'.

'But that thought lasts less than a second.'
