I wouldn't even bother Kate.

They're entitled to their opinion.

We're going around in circles
Thankfully, it's a minority opinion.

It's the same demographic who contribute to the dark side of social media. Free to say what they like behind a computer with very little understanding of human psychology. Like I said previous, a lack of emotional intelligence

Do you know him personally???...or are you making these judgements on what you have read?

From what I’ve seen and heard from him. His solo music was dire and his record company agreed

So you don't know him personally....you are making that judgement on what you have 'seen' and 'heard'....

I was a little confused because you don't like people making judgements on people based on what they have 'seen' and 'heard'....which makes your comments hypocritical to say the least....what makes it worse is a young life has been lost..he didn't hurt anyone other than himself and the loved ones he has left behind....to see comments slagging him and his music off at this particular time is really quite inappropriate.

From what I’ve seen and heard from him. If the comparison you’re clutching at is my view on Harry and Meghans Haters then it’s weak as ****. The H&M haters literally make up weird scenarios, and conspiracy theories about them. Completely different.

Pfffft. Utter Garbage. He was a great singer. Millions would disagree with you. Not that you're not entitled to your opinion of course.

He wasn’t a part of his life much so thankfully won’t be that much of a blow for him. Won’t be so hard on him until he’s grown up a bit.

Some of the comments in here and on social media in general are actually quite shocking, I know the world likes to pick targets and go after them until they’re broke , but you’d think it would stop after they’ve died, especially in such tragic ways

I think what bugs me slightly is the idea that empathy is reserved for the "pure of spirit". That's not really empathy at all, is it. I can appreciate that he was a troubled chap who was leaving a lot of pain and destruction in his wake; but that in itself is sad, when you consider the bleak & toxic system that forged him, even without the way it's ended.

Tmz has no morals whatsoever. All they care about is making money.

Cheryl's words were lovely. Very respectful. Aww. I feel for her.
