    James Blunt's former neighbour Noel Gallagher sold his home in Ibiza to get away from him

    The pop star owns a property close to the Oasis star's retreat on the Spanish island but Noel has since moved away and James has revealed the rocker told him he has put the house on the market because he "couldn't handle" James writing his "s*** songs down the road from him"


    Speaking on the 'How to Fail with Elizabeth Day' podcast, James explained: "I bumped into Noel Gallagher the other day. He'd said he was leaving Ibiza and selling up his house because he couldn't handle me writing my s*** songs down the road from him ... "

    James went on to joke: "House prices subsequently went up after he's left. "

    The 'You're Beautiful' star went on to insist he can't understand why Noel seems to feel so much animosity towards him because he's always nice to him when they meet.

    James added: "Whenever I see him, he's really sweet to my face. I think everyone's sweet to each other's faces.

    "It's just with the courage of a microphone and a journalist and trying to show off a little, they'll do something different."

    Noel previously admitted James was the reason he sold the house in an interview with Time Out Dubai magazine. When he was asked if he moved because of James, Noel replied: "Yes".

    When asked what James did to upset him, Noel answered: "He didn't [upset me]. He just moved there. I can't have that."

    During the podcast appearance, James went on to talk about other rock stars who have been "mean" to him over the years including Paul Weller, who previously dec lared he would rather "eat his own s*** than work with James".

    He said: "Paul Weller was mean. I don't know where [he said it] ... The weird thing about that was I genuinely hadn't asked to work with him. So why has he suddenly come up with this statement?

    "It just must be that he really, really just was seizing the opportunity to eat his own s***. I don't know why he was effectively volunteering to do that because I hadn't asked him."

    James also claimed Blur star Damon Albarn refused to pose for a picture with him during an appearance on BBC2 TV show 'Later With Jools Holland', explaining: "Damon apparently refused to be in the same picture as me so I was going through this really weird experience.

    "Suddenly where they kept me back in my dressing room and they kept saying, you can't come out and they were being really shady with me while they gathered all the musicians.

    "And then they took the photo and then they said, 'Okay, now you can come out' as Damon walked off and got in his car and then they took a second photo with all the musicians except Damon.

    "And I don't know which is on the wall, but I can take a guess. So it was just really weird behaviour."
