Liam Payne has faced several controversies throughout his career that have led to criticism and, on multiple occasions, being “canceled” by his fans and the media, such as in 2022 after the infidelity scandal with Maya Henry.
However, the worst came when he made controversial comments about his former One Direction bandmates, particularly about Zayn Malik. The singer claimed that Zayn threw him against a wall and they got into a fight.
Recently, his behavior at a Niall Horan concert in Argentina led to his fourth cancellation, as many fans perceived him as an “attention seeker” when he was filmed in a private box. Here, check out all the details…
One Direction fans call off Liam Payne again
Liam Payne has been at the center of recent controversy following his visit to Argentina to support his former One Direction bandmate, Niall Horan, during a concert. However, his arrival was not well received by everyone.
Many fans criticized him for appearing to seek attention instead of genuinely supporting Horan. During the event at the Movistar Arena, which he attended with his girlfriend Kate Cassidy, several videos emerged.
In the videos, he was seen dancing and interacting with the audience from a private box, leading some to label him a “attention seeker“. When security asked him to sit down, he chose to continue doing the Macarena.
The singer attempted to clarify his intentions on social media, stating that he wanted to “resolve a couple of things” with Niall, who had performed several concerts in Argentina, suggesting that there were unresolved matters between them.
He asserted that it had been a while since they last spoke and expressed his desire to reconnect without any “bad vibes“. Despite his intentions of reconciliation, his actions during the concert overshadowed this narrative, as many 1D fans felt he was stealing the spotlight.
This incident adds to a series of previous controversies for Payne, who has made comments about his former bandmates and their dynamics, particularly regarding Zayn Malik in an interview on Logan Paul’s podcast, “Impaulsive”.
