Keane singer Tom Chaplin says Noel Gallagher is "stupid" for attacking his band. The Oasis guitarist recently branded Tom's band "s**t", but the vocalist insists it is time Noel, 41, grew up and learn to respect his peers.

After being told what Noel had said about Keane at yesterday's Q Awards, Tom - who, along with his bandmates, collected the Best Track prize for single "Spiralling" at the London ceremony - told BANG Showbiz: "I can't be bothered with it to be quite honest. It's pointless in the world of music. In any other form of art nobody does that, it's just stupid."
