The BRIT Awards 2025 honoured former One Direction member Liam Payne, who tragically passed away in October 2024 at 31 after falling from a hotel balcony in Argentina. Host Jack Whitehall introduced a touching video tribute to "incredibly kind soul" Liam, stating, "Tonight we celebrate his legacy and remember the remarkable Liam Payne." The montage showcased childhood photos, family videos and memorable moments from his time on The X Factor and with One Direction, who won seven BRIT Awards before disbanding. The video also featured Liam recording "Little Things" and meeting Queen Elizabeth II. In the clip, Payne reflected, “We thought something might happen, but never anything like this. I’m always trying to remind myself of where I’ve come from, where I’ve managed to get to in my life. It’s amazing, really." BRIT Awards 2025 Winners: Charli XCX Bags Song of the Year; Chappell Roan Takes Home Two Trophies – See Full List.
