Liam Payne dies at the age of 31

[N1985]

Thread has turned into Heat Magazine, anyhow 31 is no age, family will struggle to cope with this.

Just wait till the internet sleuths come out and say it was murder

People need to realise that a young lad has died very young, show some respect to him and his family who will be devastated by this news.

Empathy seems to be a forgotten emotion.

 

[eversince 76]

Didn’t know him. Apparently his death will made loads of youngsters (mainly girls) cry and suffer. So another huge problem for a generation that doesn’t know setbacks let alone handle them.
So very very sad news.

Enough with the cynicism. And we move on …

Little mix were the biggest girl band in the world , up there with 1D , they went for about six years i think . Some have solo careers and two made good docos , one had twins and is into fashion . They have always said when they can they want to work together again

Stacy has a show on the bbc , clearing up clutter for people and is a loose woman, has about six kids with joe swash
She did the celeb jungle after show , back when they did that show

The show is rightly proud of the talent

I'll bow to your greater knowledge of daytime TV. With me working, I see precious little of it. And when I'm off, I'll avoid it like the plague. Indeed, I can say the same for, what 80% of mainstream TV. Most of what's on the terrestrial channels has very little appeal to me. Though there's obviously a market out there for the likes of Loose Women, Flog It, Homes under the Hammer etc. Give me a decent documentary any time (David Attenborough is a genius). And the best TV programme ever made (in my humble opinion*), The World At War.

Rylan ? He is really a ginge and dyes his hair and beard and has massive turkey teeth, looks very odd but i like him

He's a pain in the arse. As his mum says, ' he's everywhere '

They’ll have had contracts that will stop them ever being exposed properly.

There will always be kingmakers in the celebrity world, but things like TikTok give people a platform to be seen by billions.

NDAs are not enforceable when used to cover up criminal wrongdoing.

Minutes silence at the Molineux on Sunday. Though I think he was a West Brom fan

 

[gordondaviesmoustache]

Not going to be too devastated by the death of someone I never knew, but 31 is no age, and he seemed like a nice lad. I really like people Wolverhampton folk.

Fame is a curse. Very few escape unscathed.

This sad passing did remind me of a true story about my mum and dad, though. They were attending some antique fair at the NEC. Probably about ten years ago. They’d combined it with a visit to me. They were in their car queuing to get into the car park, and it was moving very slowly. And after a few minutes a passenger in the car in front got out, approached my mum and dad’s car, asked my dad to wind down the window and told them that they must be in the wrong queue and pointed them towards the antique fair, the other side of the complex.

They’d been following the signs that said ‘One Direction’ for about an hour.

There's a hell of a lot in there that you could file in the "whatever happened to...." drawer. I remwmber Little Mix being very popular for a short time, but they seem to have disappeared "like a fart in the wind" (with a nod to Shawshank). And, IIRC, Stacy Solomon sang (loose definition) the national anthem at our cup final against Stoke.

Didn't she sing We Are The Champions at the semi? I remember the look of bewilderment on her face on the big screens when she got dog's abuse from our end!

You've only got to fart nowadays to qualify for a minutes silence or an almost meaningful clap.

A very dear friend of mine died of drugs aged about 23. He was the kind who never turned down a challenge and sometimes did daft things. But he was a good lad and I think of him often.

One reason I've never taken any.

That's beyond my iffy memory, I'm afraid. I can imagine what it must have been like, though!

It seems (repeat, SEEMS) that he was taking drugs in the hours before his death. Pictures on social media (I know!), apparently released by Argentinian media, claim to show drug taking paraphernalia in his room. How they got access to the room is another question. Devastating for his family and friends, if true.

Was he a Russian General



Perhaps I've said too much.

Oi; I'm an FOC, but even I've heard of him.

Very funny, but you never know the demographic of followers of pop stars. After all, a certain gentleman, who would qualify on this forum as being a FOC, according to a frenzy of media headlines this week, went to see Taylor Swift no less than twice this summer:)

Oh, I thought there were a few hinting at it, due to the issues he had.

Talk he was off his tits and tried jumping into the swimming pool. Accident rather than suicide possibly but who knows. Self destructive behaviour for sure either way?
