Zayn Malik pays moving tribute on stage to his ex-One Direction partner Liam Payne

It was a great moment experienced by One Direction fans who came to applaud ex-member Zayn Malik in Leeds on Saturday evening. The British singer, who has pursued a solo career since 2015, a year before the boy band broke up, had postponed his American tour after the “heartbreaking loss” of his former colleague and friend, whose funeral took place on Wednesday November 20 in Amersham, UK.

To attend the ceremony, the 31-year-old artist had also rescheduled two of his concerts in Edinburgh, which were to launch his tour, in December.

Towards the end of the concert at the O2 Arena in Leeds, spectators were able to see the message “Love you bro”, projected on a giant screen at the back of the stage, with the inscriptions ” Liam Payne – 1993-2024” as well as a pink heart.

Immediately afterwards, the star announced: “It’s good to be back up North. Maybe this is a good time for you all, this is the first time I’m singing this song live… This song is called Pillowtalk ».

Liam Payne has died aged 31 after falling from a third floor hotel balcony in Argentina last month. Members of One Direction paid tribute to the memory of their late partner. Thus, Zayn Malik wrote him a moving message on Instagram.

“I loved and respected you immensely. There are no words to justify or explain how I feel right now except that I am devastated. I hope that, wherever you are at the moment, you are well, that you are at peace and that you know how much you are loved,” wrote Gigi Hadid’s ex-spouse.

Zayn Malik will continue his UK and US tour until February 2025.
