TV personality and former X Factor judge Sharon Osbourne paid one of the most moving homages to the singer, who passed away last week at the age of 31 after falling from a hotel in Argentina: “We all let you down.”
When Payne “joined one of the toughest industries in the world,” he was “only a kid,” according to Osbourne, who asked: “Who was in your corner? When you needed this industry, where was it?
A petition calling for the entertainment business “should be held accountable and be responsible to the wellbeing of more than 25,000 individuals has received more than 25,000 signatures.
Even though the boy band had incredible success all around the world, Payne admitted that it had a price.
He acknowledged that drinking helped him deal with his degree of celebrity “because there was no other way to make sense of what was happening.”
One American celebrity who has recently discussed the detrimental effects of the demands of celebrity is Bruce Springsteen.
