Very few individuals can claim to have experienced the unique and somewhat awkward situation of embarrassing themselves in front of a Beatle, yet Liam Gallagher can proudly count himself among them. This amusing anecdote highlights the delightful unpredictability of celebrity encounters.

In a lively recount during a 2017 interview with NME, Gallagher shared the details of his uncomfortable yet humorous meeting with Paul McCartney. “I’ve met him a few times, he’s been absolutely a dream,” he reflected. “The last time was at the Royal Albert Hall. He goes, ‘Why are you always in a rush? Sit down, sit down.’ I obliged and took a seat, only for him to ask, ‘Do you like margaritas?’ I replied, ‘Yeah, but I had something before I come out, I don’t eat at this time of night.’ To my surprise, he exclaimed, ‘They’re f—in’ drinks, you stupid prick.’ I genuinely thought he was offering me a pizza!”

Gallagher recounted this story again in 2018 while appearing on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon. During this entertaining segment, he humorously noted that he had previously asked McCartney for an autograph intended for his child’s teacher. McCartney’s playful yet cheeky description of Gallagher was simply “d—head,” showcasing their light-hearted rapport.

Discover Paul McCartney’s Favorite Margarita Recipe

It turns out that Paul McCartney has a genuine fondness for margaritas. In 2022, he and his daughter Mary McCartney filmed an engaging segment for her show on Discovery Plus, titled Mary McCartney Serves It Up. During this episode, they revealed the secret to crafting the perfect “maccarita,” a delightful twist on the classic cocktail.

McCartney’s unique recipe—Gallagher, take note—calls for four ounces of tequila, complemented with equal portions of Cointreau and triple sec. The real McCartney twist? Instead of simply using lime juice, he suggests incorporating the juice of either one orange or two clementines for an extra burst of flavor.

To prepare, shake all the ingredients in a cocktail shaker filled with ice. “You’ve gotta sing!” McCartney advised with a smile, emphasizing, “and you do that ’til your hand gets cold.” If desired, you can salt the rim of the glass before serving the drink straight up for a refreshing finish.
