Liam James Payne (born 29 August 1993) is an English singer and songwriter.
He rose to fame as a member of the boy band One Direction.
Payne made his debut as a singer when he auditioned for the British television series The X Factor in 2008. After being eliminated as a solo performer, he auditioned again in 2010 and was put into a group with four other contestants to form One Direction
A touching letter penned by former One Direction star Liam Payne to his younger self has resurfaced following the tragic news of his passing at 31.The heartfelt note, originally written for BBC Radio 1 in 2020, was reshared on Instagram today (Thursday, 17 October) by the station.
In the letter, Liam offered words of encouragement to his 10 year old self, saying "for a while you’ll feel like giving up" before the band's rise to fame, but urged, "don’t, as you’re about to meet four other guys on the same track as you are".The singer's life came to a tragic end after he fell from the third-floor balcony of a hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina, according to local authorities.
In the poignant letter, Liam also advised his younger self to "Get Ready, it’s about to get a little bumpy." The letter read: "Cherish every moment with your loved ones right now, as there’s only a few more family holidays to enjoy, life is about to turn surreal. "You know that thing you love, singing, keep it up, when you turn 14, something magical is going to happen, and I’m not talking about puberty. "Not only will you audition for one of the biggest music shows in the world, but you’ll also meet the future mother (then-X Factor judge, Cheryl Tweedy) of your child. "I know it seems early, but just trust me, it’s all going to work out however it’s supposed to.
I suggest you watch Back To The Future, it might help. "You are now famous, and it feels like you’ve peaked way too early, you cocky little bugger, but you barely even started yet, take it down a notch, and remember, it’s a marathon, not a sprint.
