Niall Horan on the media coverage and judgement online surrounding Liam Payne and his passing: “I have to say, after I made the mistake of turning it on (the news) the first time- cause that, when I first turned it on, it was the shock. The fans, you know, on the TV, people that had worked with us doing interviews… It was all of that stuff, and then… Like, I just remember going, no, I’m not- I’m not doing that. I can’t go any further than this because I’ve got a funeral to go to, and things like that. I can’t be like, worrying about what they’re going to say next. Cause like, I have my own grief to deal with. Like, how am I gonna deal with this? […]. All that stuff is kind of irrelevant to me cause I’ve, like, I also have memories. Like I’ve… I wanna think about him in that way then, rather than the crap they’re gonna talk.” via The Tommy Tiernan Show

Hello lovers! I know I’m not as active in the fandom anymore. However, I still love Niall and am so excited for the new album and tour. I do need to address something though: Niall has spoken about how talking about Liam is difficult for him, how writing those emotions was difficult for him. Can we please RESPECT him and not make fan projects out of the song for Liam? This song is special to him, explores his grief, and has strong emotions. Its already difficult enough for him im sure (making this assumption based on his own words). I know most want to do something special for Niall, however, doing a fan project when he specifically said its already hard for him, doesnt need to happen. Its unfair to do that on the anniversary of his death. Its already a hard day for Niall as it is. Lets not make it more depressing for him. Let HIM decide if a tribute will happen & if he is ready to share those emotions with us. Its not our place. Its HIS grief & HE knew Liam personally. I get yall want to honor Liam. Maybe do it on your own though, lets not force Niall to witness a tribute when he may not be ready to do that emotionally. If he wants to do one, he will. But let HIM decide. Hopefully this made sense, if not i can try to clarify what i mean.
