Should The Housemates be Made Aware of Liams Tragic Passing?
 

Given the tragic news should this news be kept from the housemates.

No they should not be made aware

He's hardly Michael jackson or David Bowie so no.

I suppose. I mean it'd be relevant to a large portion of them, given the general age group in there.

He had the same impact though.

Believe it or not.

But still they should not be made aware

Don't be derogatory. He was a huge star who made a massive impact on hearts and minds.

I do think they should be told yes.

:hehe:

Not really. No contact with outside world.

lol

er no

most wont care 2 hoots

When Liam Payne fell off that balcony in Argentina a few people tried to grab him. But apparently he was only going in the One Direction.

hearts and minds of teenage girls not really anyone else

Hmm.

Him personally? Nah. Has he even had much of a solo career?



(Not deriding him as a person or his music, but he's no MJ or Bowie)

Disgusting thing to say.

Complete lack of empathy.

It's not about him having a solo career.

He's not in the sense of music, but I truly believe he had as big impact

Garbage. Sorry but you're wrong.

Oliver that's just your opinion. I'm afraid you are in a minority. Not that there's anything wrong with being in a minority. But it sounds derisory and dismissive.

…not really, I don’t think…there are often significant events happen during BB and their time in the house and it wouldn’t be fair to ‘rate’ the importance of them by relaying one but not another…they are all aware of the no world event contact and will all have been given more detail of it so they themselves wouldn’t expect it…and in a way it wouldn’t be fair to them either if it was ‘shock news that had a personal impact on them’…and that impact had to be processed publicly, or not in privacy around their fellow housemates as well…so many reasons I feel, why it wouldn’t benefit for them to be told and would serve no purpose…

:joker:

what unmitigated bollox

It really isn't? Do you want me to catalogue his achievements, both with 1D and solo? That's a rhetorical question btw.

Why?

He didn't sound like he has much respect for his exes.:shrug:

He was an extremely troubled young man Parm? With strong mental health issues? He's dead fgs. Let's not speak ill.

This isn't like Elvis or Prince passing really though, is it? I mean... It's sad that he died, let's give him some respect here, but it isn't a cultural event or anything.

No need to fall out about it either in all honesty. What's so hard in just understanding that some have feelings about this and being cool with that?

I would never have him as ex. He's been baiting me for days.

Extremely well said.

Has he feck? What utter rubbish. If anyone is baiting it's you, posting sick jokes??

You're missing the point? To the fans, and there are huge numbers of them, it's every bit as devastating as Prince, MJ, Elvis, whoever you care to name?

Yes, and I acknowledge that. But it's sad within the fandom, but not a cultural event. That's all I am saying... So it doesn't need to be mentioned in the house.

This is in no way me devaluing how the fans feel about it.

Honestly, I am not one of the ones picking a fight with you here. I am saying respect your feelings on it.

Yes Vesavius. I see that you are not at all being disrespectful to myself I do.

In my eyes though it is a cultural event.

That's the only point in which we differ.

But, I know it's still raw and emotions are high about it so I'm not interested in making you or anyone else feel worse about it than you do so I am good with leaving it at that :)

Thank you most sincerely.

lol all this drama over a question. :joker:

it may be but to try and make an equivalence is plainly ridiculous

Why?

One Direction were huge. Massive. Worldwide.

Why are people negating this? It doesn't have to be your sort of music to recognise as such.

Honestly! :shrug:

I personally don’t think they should be told.. but i wouldn’t put it past them to do so for “shock value” which is what it would be at the end of the day

Shame there isnt a Housemate called Liam who they can pretend has died.

Why? It's sad and all but he's just a celebrity, none of them knew him I presume

In the past when celebrities have died Big Brother has been okay with telling the housemates. Even other Celebrity news has often been told to housemates in the past in tasks and such. BB8 they told them that Umbrella by Rihanna was no1 for however many weeks lol.

Like who? I know they found out about David Bowie but that was only because of the David's dead mix up and they only told Angie because she was his ex wife and the father of her son

Michael Jackson BB10

This is my feeling about it too.
