あらすじ・解説
The sudden and tragic death of Liam Payne, a founding member of the global phenomenon One Direction, has sent shockwaves through the music industry and beyond. Among those paying heartfelt tributes to the 31-year-old singer is Harry Styles' mother, Anne Twist, as well as numerous other celebrities and bands.
Anne Twist, whose son Harry Styles was a bandmate of Liam Payne in One Direction, expressed her grief on Instagram with a poignant post. She shared a broken heart emoji accompanied by the simple yet powerful caption: "Just a boy…".
This tribute encapsulates the widespread sentiment of loss and nostalgia, as many remember Liam Payne not just as a talented artist, but as a young man who rose to fame at an incredibly early age. Payne, along with Harry Styles, Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, and Zayn Malik, was discovered on the British reality TV show "The X Factor" in 2010. The group's formation and subsequent rise to global stardom were nothing short of meteoric.
Dermot O'Leary, the host of "The X Factor" during Liam's audition, also shared a heartfelt tribute. He remembered Liam as a 14-year-old who "blew us away singing Sinatra" and described him as "always a joy, had time for everyone, polite, grateful, and was always humble".
The Backstreet Boys, another iconic boy band, were among the many who paid their respects. In a statement on social media, they wrote, "Words can not express the emotions we are collectively feeling right now, and it seems like the rest of the world is in the same boat. Our hearts go out to Liam’s family, friends, and Directioners around the world. Rest in peace brother".
Liam Payne's death has prompted reflections on the pressures and vulnerabilities associated with fame, especially for young artists. Mikey Graham of Boyzone suggested that record companies should have psychologists on their books to provide a duty of care for young talent, highlighting the damaging effects of fame in today's world.
Charlie Puth, who collaborated with Liam on the song "Bedroom Floor," was in shock upon hearing the news. He shared on Instagram, "Liam was always so kind to me. He was one of the first major artists I got to work with. I can not believe he is gone… I am so upset right now; may he rest in peace".
Other notable tributes came from Ronnie Wood of the Rolling Stones, who remembered working with One Direction on their "X Factor" performance, and Rita Ora, who described Liam as having "the kindest soul" and expressed her devastation at his passing.
Despite the outpouring of tributes from various corners of the music industry, Liam's former One Direction bandmates, including Harry Styles, have yet to make a public statement. However, the silence from Harry Styles is perhaps a testament to the deep personal impact of this loss, given the close bond the band members shared during their time together.
Liam Payne's legacy extends far beyond his music. He leaves behind a 7-year-old son, Bear, with his ex-partner Cheryl from Girls Aloud, as well as his parents and two older sisters. His family, in a statement, described him as having a "kind, funny and brave soul" and asked for privacy and space during this difficult time.
As the world mourns the loss of Liam Payne, it is clear that his impact on music and the lives of those who knew him will be remembered for years to come. The tributes from Harry Styles' mother and other stars serve as a reminder of the profound influence Liam had, both on and off the stage.
