Make of that what you will.

Sad.
Don't think he was anything like the music industry's first victim. And young stars these days must get more support than they have ever had.

Re: One Direction star Liam Payne dies in fall
The minute we stop caring about situations like this we are lost.It's a very sad tragedy whatever the cause.
I personally am finding reading the news recently too,too depressing.

Re: One Direction star Liam Payne dies in fall
My much younger brother was a very big fan of One Direction and was in tears when he heard the very sad news.
Its just terribly sad.

The Music Industry did not instruct him to get high on drugs and drink, or fall off a balcony because of it.

Well, no, but the implication is that the way young impressionable people are treated by the music industry leads to them seeking an outlet in unhealthy pursuits.
Some people can cope better than others in any given situation.
Has it now been confirmed whether being high and/or drunk led him to misadventure? I did wonder if the confidence and lack of judgement gained from the use of drink & drugs had led him to commit suicide.

Re: One Direction star Liam Payne dies in fall
'Michael Buerk has faced a backlash after he described the late Liam Payne as a 'drugged-up, faded, boy band singer'. - Spoken on Radio 4.
https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-e...-b2634872.html
Obviously Daily Mail who have really gone to town and milked his death for all its worth also has their say too...
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-coverage.html
A bit crass, maybe a bit too soon but then again the amount of continuous media coverage was way too extreme. To the point I'm actually expecting to hear stories from his next door neighbour two doors down to give their account of how wonderful he was.
So on this point I have to agree with M Buerk.

As his body was founď to contain cocaine and sleeping tablets, I imagine that this will be connected to the supply of the drugs at least.

one was charged with 'abandonment of a person followed by death' and drug supply. The hotel employee and third person were charged with supplying drugs.

If all men or woman were the same emotional wise we would have a world of emotionless clones.
