Rita Ora Tears Up Performing Liam Payne Duet After His Death: ‘I Can’t Even Sing This Right Now’

Rita Ora sang her Liam Payne collab "For You" but got choked up in light of the star's death at a recent concert. Learn about the emotional moment.

Rita Ora ‘s latest concert featured an emotional tribute to Liam Payne, who died at age 31 on Wednesday (Oct. 16) after falling from the third floor of his hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Looking visibly emotional in videos captured by fans, Ora ended up having the crowd sing the lyrics for her as she walked with her head bowed, at one point turning her back to the audience and looking up at the ceiling. As a black-and-white photo of Ora and Payne in the studio flashed on the screen behind her, the Descendants: The Rise of Red star watched her fans sing the chorus for a minute more before mouthing, “I’m sorry,” and walking off the stage with her arms folded over her chest.
