One Direction's Liam Payne falls to death at Argentina hotel

Um, any NEWS as to what led to his fall?

Who??..

Most likely alcohol was involved

Who??..

If you took one minute to actually read the article, you would know.

(By the way, two periods after two question marks don’t really add any meaning. Just a pro tip.)

He was a member of the biggest group to ever perform a few years ago. Young people at the time loved this band. Some great hits that will last forever. He only fell 3 floors, so there must be something suspicious about this.

Rest in Peace! Way too young to go.

1D was popular before my kids were born but I remember my daughter had the song he did with A Boogie in rotation.

Who??..

Read the article.

i was reading the article expecting it to say there was no third-party involvement and no suspicious circumstances, but it never did...

things that make you go hmmmm

Liam Payne family must be devastated, aged 31 such a tragic loss.

Just close to five years between us.

I didn't follow the group, however I am shocked at such news.

Terrible news,for family and his friends and fans.

How anyone could post "Who??.." in response to someone's death,and not have their post removed,is interminable.

By that,I mean that this person's mostly negative or inflammatory posts are always allowed to remain on the forum,when patently any responsible moderator would have banned them by now.

Sad news, wow! My daughter just loved them so much.

They might not know who he was.

Remember, One Direction was a British band, and I'm assuming that a significant number of posters here are not Brits. They were one of those "very popular for a short time and then faded away into nothing based on total lack of musical talent" bands (which doesn't make this guy's death any less tragic, I should add).

Other sources suggest maybe he had a bad break up recently and maybe this was a suicide. 14 meters onto concrete if you are landing on your head is definitely fatal. 31 years old is far too young that is a shame.

@Some Dude

i had no idea who he was just by the name, so I read the article. Now I do. Now the name, but never listened to their music, my daughter was born after their time. But I know enough after taking 2-3 minutes to read about a young man who died way too soon, and possibly because of alcohol. Sad.

Don't do drugs kids

@awomde - Absolutely no evidence any kind of drugs were involved. That’s pure speculation.

Still not confirmed, but latest reports have the hotel manager calling emergency services over someone smashing up their room in a drug fueled rampage.

There's quite a lot of missing information from this article. 1. What time of the day did it happen? 2. What happened before that event (what led to this event)? 3. Any witnesses? 4. Why did it happen? 5. Was there anyone with him when that incident happen? I really feel sad for him and his family. One Direction made lots of great songs and memories. RIP to Liam.

They might not know who he was

I find the people who write ‘who?’ in this situation basically don’t like the person or don’t like what the person did - in this case bubblegum pop. Nothing more irritating than the types banging on about ‘real’ music.

It’s very childish and peevish and in this case of a young death, a bit ugly too.

Maybe best to post nothing in this case.

Alcohol and drugs again I suppose, very sad.

Liam Payne leaves behind a 7 year old son, Bear, Mother Cheryl Cole, judge on the "x factor" is left to comfort grieve such sudden loss.

Rumour's surround lifestyle choices, the family should be left alone to grieve with some privacy.

Self-destruction was his "one direction", the tragic trajectory of many who have trodden the lonely road of fame and fortune. RIP, young man.

What goes up must come down drugs and alcohol made him live up to his bands name sake!

Of course you're right, but this is TokyoLiving. This is what he does. His schtick is to demean/belittle/insult anything he deems "Western", specifically from the US or UK, as those are clearly what he feels most threatened by. 98% of his posts are, "Anything US/UK/Western bad, any potential challenger to that=good"

Apparently that now means dipping so low as to disrespect the recently deceased because he was a popular British pop star, for the unpardonable sin of being British and popular.

still not confirmed, but latest reports have the hotel manager calling emergency services over someone smashing up their room in a drug fueled rampage

this has now been confirmed with the release of the emergency call.

the desk staff making the call requested medical emergency mental health people and no police, but the responder said that police must also be there when the medical people enter the room.

so yes, there was third-party involvement and yes there were suspicious circumstances.

things that make you go hmmmm...
