Ringo Starr is to present Oasis with their outstanding achievement award at next month's Brit Awards, it has been claimed.
The former Beatle is understood to have been asked to give the Gallagher brothers the award at the event in London.
Apparently Johnny Depp was set to make the presentation but has been forced to pull out, presenting Noel and Liam with an opportunity to meet Starr for the first time.
Ringo's son, Zak Starkey, is the current drummer in Oasis, having replaced Alan White in 2005 and played on their last LP, Don't Believe The Truth.
The 2007 Brit Awards take place at London's Earls Court on February 14 and will be presented by British comedian Russell Brand.
Scissor Sisters, the Killers, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Take That, and Oasis are expected to be among the ceremony live performers.
