Naga Munchetty was left in stitches on BBC Breakfast this morning due to a bizarre technical blunder during a serious segment about the Oasis reunion. The legendary Gallagher brothers have sent fans into a frenzy with the announcement of their UK tour next year, and tickets are dropping today, August 31. However, they've issued a stern warning against ticket touts after spotting pre-sale passes being hawked online for sky-high prices.
The severity of their message was undercut on the BBC when viewers were treated to an odd close-up shot of just the brothers' legs, sending Naga into a fit of laughter, reports the Manchester Evening News . Struggling to keep her composure, she teased more details, "You'll see more," before adding with a chuckle, "Later on. That was just their lower halves!" Oasis addressed the ticket turmoil on Friday via their social media platforms, stating, "We have noticed people attempting to sell tickets on the secondary market since the start of the pre-sale.
" They firmly instructed, "Please note, tickets can ONLY be resold, at face value, via @Ticketmaster and @Twickets." The band has made it crystal clear that any tickets sold outside these approved avenues risk being invalidated. With some pre-sale tickets reportedly being sold for over £6,000, earlier in the show, Naga and co-host Charlie Stayt discussed concerns over fans being taken advantage of in the rush for the highly anticipated reunion tickets.
Naga has been guiding eager fans on how to snag tickets for the hot event, explaining, "So, today's the general sale," signalling that those who missed out on earlier opportunities could now try their luck. "But, the presale tickets that have kind of been snapped up, they're causing a bit of a problem." The broadcast then cut to a visual of Naga against the BBC setting before switching to a less-than-helpful image of the iconic Oasis duo, captured from the waist down with hands nonchalantly in their denim pockets.
Naga went on: "Oasis now has issued a warning against reselling tickets to their comeback tour after some were listed for thousands of pounds within minutes of a pre-sale." She cast a somewhat unamused look at the display before letting out a chuckle. "A limited number of fans were able to buy the first batch of tickets during a three-hour window last night," she said, her face lighting up with a smile.
"So what the group's done is urge people not to re-sale these tickets at high prices and said that the tickets would be cancelled." Wrapping up, the BBC host announced that official tickets will go on sale from 9am today. BBC Breakfast airs from 6am on BBC One and BBC iPlayer.
