News summary

Following the tragic death of Liam Payne, fans have initiated a petition titled 'Liam's Law' to advocate for legislation aimed at safeguarding the mental health of artists in the entertainment industry. The former One Direction member, 31, fell from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, with initial reports indicating drugs and alcohol were involved, including the presence of cocaine in his system. The petition, which has gained significant traction with nearly 75,000 signatures, calls for mandatory mental health check-ups, adequate rest periods, and the presence of mental health professionals on-set. Day Kv, the petition creator, expressed her motivation as a response to Payne's struggles and the industry's lack of support for young artists. Prominent figures like Sharon Osbourne have echoed concerns about the industry's accountability towards artists’ welfare, reinforcing the need for systemic change. The movement seeks to address the alarming mental health challenges faced by performers, who are reported to be at a higher risk than the general population.
