British singer Robbie Williams He assured this Tuesday that the music industry must offer more support to young people to avoid cases like that of his compatriot Liam Paynedied on October 16 after falling from the third floor of a hotel in Buenos Aires (Argentina).
The former member of the band Take That advocated the creation of an “ideas laboratory” made up of “creative people” to address how to Help other artists with mental health problems.
“Everyone on the planet now is neurodiverse, has gone through trauma, is struggling to accept his childhood or his place in the world and yes, it is very difficult,” Williams declared in Dublin, during the presentation of the concert he will give in the Irish capital next August.
In the entertainment industry, he highlighted, there are “gray areas” in which it is even “more difficult” to put mechanisms and tools into operation to “take care of your people properly“, as is the case, he said, of young musicians without resources who operate from “a van.”
“LLiam’s tragedy will not go unnoticed and it hasn’t gone unnoticed, and I’m sure things will be done in its name to make things better,” Williams added.
An Argentine prosecutor’s office has charged three people in the case investigating the death of the singer, 31 years old, for crimes of abandonment of person followed by death, supply and facilitation of narcotics. One of the accused is a person who accompanied the former member of One Direction during his stay in Buenos Aires, another is an employee of the hotel where his death took place and the third was described as “a supplier of narcotics.”
Prosecutors also reported that the results of toxicology studies revealed that Payne, who, like Williams, achieved fame in a boy bandpresented “traces of polydrug use of alcohol, cocaine and a prescription antidepressant“.
