I was in a bit of a bad mood that day. I hadn’t eaten all day I was a little bit hungry.’And then it was years later that she called me and said the National Portrait Gallery want to put this in the permanent collection.’And I was like ‘send it to me’ and she sent it to me and I was like ‘oh it’s fucking brilliant!’ and she said, ‘but you hated it!”But it’s such an honour to have it in here and for it to be displayed permanently.’I was trying to explain it to my mum who’s 80 odd and she’s Irish and she couldn’t quite grasp that it’s going to be here forever.’ Robbie Williams took selfies with fans on the red carpet last week in celebration of his new biopic, Better Man The pop star is portrayed as a CGI chimpanzee in the film due to Williams’ belief that he is a performing monkey when on stage (Pictured in 2013) Guitarist of The Smiths Johnny Marr was among the guests at the National Portrait Gallery to see Noel Gallagher’s portrait Noel’s 24-year-old daughter Anais and guitarist of The Smiths Johnny Marr also celebrated Noel’s photo hanging in the National Portrait Gallery’s permanent collection.Noel also claimed he and his brother will not fall out during the tour, confirming the end of their 15-year feud.’There won’t be any fights.
