"Life is short and fragile…" Payne's collaborator, Zedd, began in a series of tweets. "You never know what people are going through. We live in times where being rude, divisive and mean is normal; sometimes even celebrated. It doesn’t have to be this way. We should do our best to be kind, supportive and mindful. RIP Liam… I can’t believe this is real… absolutely heartbreaking … 💔"
