Mariah Carey trumps Oasis in final Fan Vote for Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
Let that sink in... Mariah Cary earned more ballots than Oasis in the final Fan Vote for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Pop diva Mariah Carey received more votes than Oasis in the final Fan Vote for entry into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
The Britpop legends only managed 99,500 ballots, while the 'We Belong Together' hitmaker earned 138,000.
However, it's not just the fan vote that decides who will be inducted.
Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher previously made it clear he doesn't care if the band are inducted after they earned their second nod.
Following the unveiling of the longlist in February, the outspoken rock'n'roll star lashed out at the museum and institution, but confessed he'd probably still attend if the 'Morning Glory' rockers were to be chosen for induction and would act like it was the "best thing ever".
He reacted on X: "RNR hall of fame is for W******.”
Liam also wrote: “F*** the Rock n Roll hall of fame its full of BUMBACLARTS LG (sic)"
When one fan asked what he's going to do if he wins, the singer replied: “Obv go and say it’s the best thing EVER (sic)"
It's not the first time Liam has mocked the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, having previously declared he doesn't want to be a part of "anything that mentally disturbed".
Speaking after Oasis were nominated in 2024, he The Sunday Times: “As much as I love Mariah Carey and all that, I want to say: do me a favour and f*** off.
“It’s like putting me in the rap hall of fame, and I don’t want to be part of anything that mentally disturbed. Besides, I’ve done more for rock n’ roll than half of them clowns on that board, so it’s all a load of b*******.”
In 2017, Liam's brother and bandmate, Noel Gallagher, made it clear he wasn't interested, either.
He told Rolling Stone: “The f***in’ fella from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame came to me and said, ‘Do you know in two years you’ll be eligible for the Hall of Fame?’ I said, ‘Is that right?’ He said, ‘Yes.’
“And he started going on, and I said, ‘Let me f***ing stop you there. I know what it is. I know what it entails, and it won’t be f***ng happening, OK?’”
Asked if he felt the 'Supersonic' rockers were worthy of a place in the Cleveland museum, he replied: “I certainly think I do! There could be a little miniature of me somewhere – a tiny little thing with a wobbly head.”
Phish have come out on top with a whopping 330,000 ballots.
Bad Company landed second place, receiving 281,000 of the votes.
In third place is Billy Idol (260,500 votes), followed by Cyndi Lauper (237,000) and Joe Cocker (234,000).
Artists become eligible for nomination 25 years after the release of their first commercial recording.
The Class of 2025 will be unveiled on Sunday’s (27.04.25) episode of 'American Idol'.
