Liam Payne Reportedly Texted THIS Pussycat Doll Alum On Day Of His Passing: ‘She Mentored…’

As an ardent fan of the world of music and entertainment, I find myself deeply moved by the profound connection shared between Nicole Scherzinger and Liam Payne. The news that they were exchanging messages on the very day that Liam passed away is both heart-wrenching and a testament to their bond.


According to a recent interview by composer Andrew Lloyd Webber, it was reported that Nicole Scherzinger, famously associated with the Pussycat Dolls, had been in contact with Liam Payne – a member of One Direction – on the day he sadly passed away.

As a devoted admirer, I can share that, following Webber’s insights, Scherzinger maintained a mentoring relationship with Payne. We were still in frequent contact, exchanging messages, until the unfortunate news of his demise reached her.

Andrew Lloyd Webber openly discussed the bond between Payne and Scherzinger, describing her as a guiding influence in the budding artist’s career.

In the Billboard interview, Webber expressed an unsaid thought and suggested another statement: “Perhaps it’s worth mentioning that Scherzinger indeed mentored Liam from One Direction.” He further revealed that on the unfortunate day of Payne’s passing, October 16, Scherzinger had been communicating with him via text messages.

On that particular day, it’s understood that she was still communicating with him, as Webber stated. It appears that Scherzinger became aware of Payne’s demise just moments before she was due to take the stage in her starring role for Sunset Boulevard. Webber expressed his admiration by saying, “Her decision to perform despite learning about his passing so close to showtime is nothing short of extraordinary. Indeed, she is an exceptional, remarkable woman.

Back in 2010, I was completely smitten as I found myself right in the thick of things with The X Factor UK. I was part of this star-studded panel alongside Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh, and let me tell you, it was an unforgettable experience! It was during this time that the magical bond between Scherzinger and Payne started to unfold. And if you remember, it was under our watchful eyes that One Direction was born – a moment I’ll never forget!

In 2022, footage revealed that Scherzinger played a key role in forming the band by suggesting the idea of uniting Payne with four other contestants – Harry Styles, Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, and Niall Horan – to create a boy band rather than eliminating them.

At one point, Scherzinger expressed that they were simply too gifted to dismiss and possessed an ideal stage presence with captivating charisma. She likened them to tiny shining stars, stating that such stars cannot be discarded. Instead, she suggested grouping them together. This vision ultimately resulted in the formation of One Direction, a group that enjoyed tremendous global success until their break in 2015.

Just prior to Payne’s demise, it is said that he and Scherzinger teamed up for a new Netflix project called “Building the Band.” In this reality show, Scherzinger served dual roles as judge and mentor, leveraging her expertise from The X Factor.

The series concluded filming in August, and it’s expected to offer fans an insight into the intricacies involved in creating popular music bands.
