Shortly after Liam Payne’s death news became public, Rita Ora had to play her duet song with Payne on stage – and surrendered.
She left her own concert: During a performance, Rita Ora (33) was overcome with sadness for her colleague and friend Liam Payne (1993 – 2024), who died shortly before her gig. her stage collapse was published.
The singer had to perform a concert in Japan just hours after news broke of the One Direction star’s tragic death in Argentina. Then she had to perform her hit “For You” – the song she recorded with Liam Payne for the 2018 film “Fifty Shades Of Grey.”
As the first bars sounded, Ora walked nervously around the stage, looking uncertainly at the audience. Then the Brit suddenly had to sit down and apologized that it was too difficult for her to sing this song. She then asked the audience to sing the lyrics.
An intimate black-and-white photo of Ora with Payne, , appeared on the oversized screen behind her. It shows the two of them recording the sound of the song. Rita Ora left the stage before the video, presumably shot and published by a fan, stops. It is unclear whether the singer returned or whether it was the last song of her concert.
“I’m devastated”
In the social media post, she later mourned her companion with the following words: “I am devastated. He had the kindest soul that I will never forget. I enjoyed working with him so much. It was just a joy, “To be with him on and off stage. This tragic news breaks my heart. I send all my love and prayers to his family and loved ones. Our song ‘For You’ now takes on a whole new meaning for me.”
Former boy band member Liam Payne died at the age of 31 after falling from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina, on Wednesday morning. As “TMZ” reports, a hotel employee is said to have made an emergency call shortly beforehand.
