Obviously not my type of music but for anyone who had a daughter/granddaughter who were fans at the time of their success this will come as a huge shock. The more that comes out about how the band were managed at the time the sadder it gets, to live your entire youth in the public eye must have been extreme (despite most youngsters craving that life).
Payne, from the English city of Wolverhampton, was only 14 years old when he first auditioned for “The X Factor.” In 2010, Payne, then 16, returned for his second audition, which would lead to the formation of One Direction.
Payne spoke openly about his struggles with substance abuse and his mental health.
Payne said on “The Diary of a CEO” podcast in 2021 that him and his band members were often “locked in our rooms” due to their popularity, which led him to drink and “have a party for one – and that just seemed to carry on throughout many years of my life.”
How is that any way to treat a youngster no matter how 'popular' or 'money making' they are.
..... despite the fact that a lot of people crave that life, I don't think they have any idea exactly what it's like.
I'm pretty sure it would be considered as 'Child Abuse' for under 18's
My youngest daughter hasn;t been able to go to Uni today 'coz she was so upset, and my eldest daughter, who has seen them twice in Concert has been heartbroken, and felt extremely down and upset all day .........
Absolute tragedy
RIP Liam ....keep the Angels entertained
........ and thank you for the memories you've given me, and especially my Family
Absolutely gutted to hear about the passing of Paul DiAnno. The 2 albums he sang on Iron Maiden and Killers are still some of the bands best work some 40 plus years later.
Tarzan is dead......Ron Ely death: Tarzan star with tragic family history dies......... who played Tarzan in an NBC television series from 1966 to 1968, has died. He was 86.
Tributes pour in for Alastair Down after death aged 68
I saw this earlier..... very sad news...... especially as he was interviewed on Racing from Cheltenham just last weekend, where they opened a Bar in his name. I must admit he didn't look very well
RIP to one of the very best 'Scribes' ......certainly in Horse Racing
Second Bee Gees drummer dies days after Colin Petersen Dennis Bryon, former Bee Gees drummer who played with the band between 1974 to 1980, has died. He was 76.
Former My Chemical Romance drummer Bob Bryar dies aged 44.
Bob Bryar, former drummer of My Chemical Romance, has reportedly been found dead at the age of 44 in his home in Tennessee.
Bryar had been the band's drummer between 2004 and 2010, and in 2014 he announced that he would be quitting music altogether, though the following year he expressed an interest in returning.
TMZ reports that the 44-year-old was last seen on 4 November and that he was found dead in his home this Tuesday (26 November).
His final social media activity was on 5 November.
The report adds that they've been told foul play is not suspected as any weapons or musical equipment in the house are untouched, and that animal control visited the property to recover two dogs from the home.
Bryar's body was described in the report as 'badly decomposed', with a medical examiner now set to investigate the cause of death and determine what exactly happened to the former My Chemical Romance man.

But their early work is more to my taste. Did see the Band Di'Anno back in the late-80s. Seriously loud.
