MTV's EMAs to 'honour Liam Payne as his pal Rita Ora hosts the ceremony' -  after she was left 'devastated' by the One Direction star's tragic death

As someone who grew up with One Direction‘s music echoing in every corner of my teenage years, I was deeply saddened by the untimely death of Liam Payne. The news hit me like a wave, reminding me of the carefree days when their songs were anthems for my generation.


It seems that the European Music Awards hosted by MTV are expected to honor the memory of the late Liam Payne at their glitzy event in Manchester coming up next month.

Though it hasn’t been officially verified, there are strong indications that the event might be organized by Rita Ora, a close friend and fellow artist of the deceased, who expressed her deep sorrow upon his passing.

On Wednesday at the Casa Sur Hotel in Buenos Aires, I had an unexpected tumble from the third story, falling approximately 45 feet into the courtyard – and yes, that’s the same hotel where One Direction’s singer happens to be staying.

According to the source, the tribute might encompass anything from a live performance of Liam’s greatest hits to a retrospective video highlighting his career in entertainment.

In the upcoming period, they’ll begin drafting formal proposals. While it hasn’t been officially confirmed, Rita is set to host this year’s awards and will play a role in any decisions MTV makes regarding their plans.

For a long time, she and Liam have been very connected, and they both advanced in their careers side by side. It’s clear that she is deeply saddened by his demise.

TopMob have contacted MTV and Rita Ora’s reps for comment.  

Rita and Liam harmonized beautifully on the 2018 song “For You,” and after hearing about his passing, she expressed: ‘He possessed an extraordinarily kind heart; I will forever remember him. Working with him was truly delightful – he brought so much joy, both on and off stage.’

Oh, this devastating announcement has left me utterly shattered. My deepest sympathies go out to his dear family and friends. The lyrics of our shared anthem, “For You,” resonate with a profound poignancy that I never imagined. Rest in peace.

On Saturday evening, Liam received a special acknowledgement, as the inductees for this year’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame were announced in Cleveland, Ohio.

While an investigation into the events leading up to huis death is ongoing, the British singer was included among the annual event’s memorials at Cleveland’s Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse.

A picture showing Payne from his time with One Direction in the past was displayed on the screen, causing a storm of enthusiasm among the audience members.

Police found drugs in his room including ‘cristal’, a potent hallucinogenic that causes blackouts and psychotic episodes.

A source told TopMob: ‘Where did Liam get the drugs when he had no money?’

The source also revealed: 

  • Liam had been ‘re-working’ his favorite One Direction track ‘Fireproof’ on his computer just hours before his death. 
  • He was in Argentina to renew his US visa and had passed medical and psychological tests days before which proved he was ‘totally clean.’ 
  • He was in ‘good spirits’ and had been planning to fly back home to girlfriend Kate Cassidy in Miami on Friday. 
  • His final meal was his favourite, chocolate-chip cookies.

According to various police reports, it is believed that an individual within the hotel provided him with illicit substances.

It’s been rumored, but not yet confirmed, that a hotel may have carried out an investigation internally and dismissed one or more staff members.

Payne arrived in Argentina on September 30 with his girlfriend Kate and close friend Roger Nores.

According to the source, Liam found himself needing to depart from America because his U.S. visa was about to expire. To kill two birds with one stone, he opted to travel to Buenos Aires to watch Niall Horan’s performance and secure a fresh visa.

However, upon his visit to the U.S. embassy in Buenos Aires the previous week, Payne learned that the officials had previously searched for him online and uncovered his past stays at various rehabilitation centers due to substance abuse issues with drugs and alcohol.

‘Initially, they instructed him to undergo various medical examinations, including doctor visits, bloodwork, x-rays, and consultations with a psychiatrist. All these appointments were scheduled and completed during the first week. Liam had anticipated a brief stay but due to the extensive tests, he found himself unexpectedly stuck there for an extended period.’

Following the weekend spent at a polo farm near Buenos Aires, Kate Cassidy returned to Miami on Monday to look after the couple’s pet, while Liam stayed at the CasaSur hotel.

‘He had no money and his credit cards weren’t working, so he was spending all his time in the room.
