Buenos Aires, Argentina: Former One Direction song Liam Payne, 31, whose hit-making English boy band created a swooning following abroad, was discovered dead on Wednesday after falling from a resort balcony, according to local authorities.
According to Buenos Aires officers, Payne fell from the second floor of the Casa Sur Hotel in the upscale Palermo neighborhood of Argentina’s cash, causing “extremely major wounds.” Payne “had jumped from the rooftop of his room,” according to the police statement to AP. A “gressive man who could be under the influence of drugs or alcohol,” the emergency call was made only after 5 p.m. local time, according to the statement.
On a 911 call, the hotel manager may be heard saying that there is” a visitor who is confused with drugs and alcohol.” He’s destroying the entire room”. The manager’s voice became more stressed as the phone went on, noting the area had a ledge. Authorities were looking into the circumstances surrounding his death, according to Alberto Crescenti, the head of the state emergency health program. Payne had been outspoken about his struggle with alcohol, and he admitted to doing so for six weeks after receiving treatment in a video released in July 2023. Representatives for Payne did n’t return calls.
Payne was one of five people of One Direction, which was formed when they each auditioned for the American song contest line” The X Factor” in 2010, two years after Payne’s second attempt to appear on the show. At 16 the next time around, Payne sang Michael Buble’s type of” Cry Me a River”.
After each singer’s single performances failed, Simon Cowell and his brother judges combined Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, Harry Styles, Niall Horan, and Payne into what would become one of the most popular boy bands, despite losing the competition. Payne, who was born in Wolverhampton, a town in the West Midlands region of England, was known as the concerned persona for each part. The group became known for their music tone and touches like” What Makes You Beautiful”,” Night Changes” and” Story of My Living”. By the time they broke up in 2016, they had six Major 10 hits in the charts.
After the team’s breakdown, Payne- like each of his former bandmates- pursued a single job, shifting toward EDM and hip-hop. His 2017 one” Strip That Down” reached the Billboard Top 10, and stayed on the figures for several decades. He put out an song” L” in 2019, and his last release- a second called” Teardrops”- was released in March.
Payne had a 7-year-old boy, Bear Grey Payne, with exgirlfriend, the singer Cheryl. Additionally, his families and his two older sisters are left behind.
