Liam said: "SpongeBob is a f***ing mental, full-of-beans enthusiastic sponge that lives at the bottom of he sea in Bikini Bottom. He's mad for it.
"He's got a mate called Squidward, who plays the clarinet, and is grumpy like our kid Noel.
"I'm having a huge painting done at the minute, a proper Andy Warhol-style portrait of SpongeBob. He'll be facing Elvis and Hendrix."
Liam also revealed he has developed a fishy alter-ego around his home in Henley, Oxon.
He added to Q magazine: "I f**king love Henley. I go into my local and say, 'I am the Salmon King, stand back.' "
Liam is such a fan of SpongeBob SquarePants, he insisted on taking his son Gene and now-wife Nicole Appleton to the premiere of the movie version of the series in 2005.
