Payne morreu com 31 anos em Buenos Aires, Argentina, após cair do balcão de um hotel argentino em 16 de outubro de 2024. O escritório do promotor argentino revelou que a causa da morte do indivíduo de 31 anos foi múltiplos traumas e sangramento interno e externo.

During his ongoing 30-night residency in New York, Styles told the crowd: “I feel incredibly lucky to get to play these shows here in New York, and this building means a lot to me.

I feel incredibly lucky to get to play these shows here in New York, and, uhm, this building means a lot to me as I said, and I feel incredibly proud when I get to look up there, and see my name up there from the last time.

Ele continuou: “Tenho certeza de que muitos de vocês passaram por situações semelhantes. Espero que não tenham. Mas, na verdade, trata‑se apenas de cuidar uns dos outros.

Tantas pessoas que tocaram minha vida de maneiras tão especiais.”.

The singer then performed moving new track ‘What Is Enough’. The song saw Styles gently strumming his guitar while he sang the poignant lyric: “You dance until you’re tired.”.

One Direction bandmate Niall Horan previously looked back on memories he shared with Payne, and said that grief had brought a mixture of “sadness” alongside fond reflection.

Before then, Styles said the death of his former bandmate made him re-evaluate how he saw life, and Louis Tomlinson addressed the loss and said it was “impossibly difficult for him to deal with”.

O mais recente tributo de Styles vem depois de ele também ter prestado recentemente homenagem a Oscar Belgal, que foi baleado por um agente da Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

The incident took place earlier this month, when the 28-year-old man was shot in his car on October 8, while his five-year-old son was sitting in the back seat.

Belgal survived and is now being held at a detention facility.

Os 30 noites de Styles no icônico local de Nova York começaram no final de agosto e até agora ele já fez uma homenagem a Dolly Parton e também fez referência ao casamento de Taylor Swift, que foi realizado no mesmo local.

The dates come as part of his ongoing ‘Together, Together’ tour, which has also seen him play a record-breaking 12 shows at London’s Wembley Stadium, as well as dates in Amsterdam, São Paulo and Mexico City.

His Madison Square Garden shows will conclude with a “Harryween” show on October 31, before he plays more dates in Melbourne and Sydney in December.

The 2027 dates come in collaboration with Green Nation – Live Nation’s global sustainability initiative – to reduce emissions and encourage lower-impact travel options for fans where available.

At all dates, the singer will continue to support Choose Love for a 10th year, and in the US, proceeds will be donated to HeadCount, which helps use music to register voters and promote democratic participation.

O tour vem em apoio ao seu quarto álbum solo, “Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally”, que foi lançado em março, e o NME cobriu o tour em Amsterdã, dando-lhe uma avaliação de cinco estrelas e elogiando-o como “uma celebração esperançosa de comunidade e conexão”.
