Simon Cowell, the former The X Factor judge who pieced together One Direction, has been slammed online following the death of Liam Payne.
The pop star died on Wednesday after falling off a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He had been there to attend former bandmate Niall Horan’s concert.
After the news broke, fans were quick to accuse Simon of his previous tensions with Liam, from an X thread known as #JusticeForLiam — which said the TV personality focused on profits made by his artists, rather than the well-being of their mental health.
