Liam Payne left emotional over Building The Band star's admission in final TV project

Liam Payne's final telly project, Building The Band, is airing on Netflix, and one admission from a contestant left the late singer feeling emotional on the set Liam Payne was lost for words after a contestant on Building The Band revealed his link to the late singer. Former One Direction star Liam filmed the Netflix show last year, just weeks before he tragically died. ‌ The Polaroid musician tragically died aged just 31 in October last year, having fallen from the balcony of his third-floor hotel room in Buenos Aires, Argentina. He sustained injuries that were not compatible with life and was pronounced dead at the scene. ‌ But just weeks prior, Liam appeared in his element, working alongside his pal Nicole Scherzinger, who created his former band, and American chart-topper, Kelly Rowland, filming the show in Manchester, with his relatives even joining him for the process. ‌ A clip of the show sees the late musician left speechless when Australian contestant Mason Watts, who is part of the band Midnight Til Morning, revealed his unexpected connection to the band that Liam found fame in. "I just wanna say, Liam, when I was about 11 years old, my family won tickets from Australia," Mason said. He added: "My sisters were obsessed with you; they won flights for my whole family to sit front row at Madison Square Garden when I was a little kid. Ever since that moment, I wanted to be in a group. It's kind of a full-circle moment to be here with a group and be performing in front of you, so thank you, man." ‌ Shocked by the admission, Liam eventually said: "Thank you," before looking at the camera and sending a message to Mason's sisters. He said: "Hi sisters!" Mason went on to add: "Thank you man," with Liam adding: "Amazing, thank you so much." Fans watching the clip were also left emotional with one writing on social media: "That's so cool Mason, living your dream and performing for Liam Payne, what an amazing full circle moment!" ‌ A second asked: "Is he tearing up?," with one fan replying: "Yes he is, it means the world to him." Another fan commented: "I can't watch this. This breaks my heart into a million pieces. Life is so unfair. Liam is so kind. I met him back in the 1D days several times, and he was always one of the most appreciative and sweetest in the band. These promos for the show are making me so sad." "He was genuinely touched. I'm not into many celebs, but he was so clearly a salt of the earth kind of man, and it's gutting that he is gone," said another. Prior to the show airing last week, doubts had been raised about whether the show should move forward, but Nicole revealed that bosses had the blessing of Liam's relatives. ‌ She said: "Liam meant and means so much to all of us, and we were very obviously sensitive to the whole process. We ultimately left it in his family's hands and wanted to respect how they felt about everything and how to move forward. And his parents were there during the filming. They were amazing. It was so wonderful. "They were actually kind of sat right next to us through the whole process, and they've been with Liam and with us through this entire process. So to know that we had their blessing, to know that they were so proud of him on the show, they were like, 'Oh, yes, this is how we want everyone to remember Liam.'" Building The Band is available to stream on Netflix now.

History Buff Peyton Manning Brings His Curiosity To ‘The Mega-Brands That Built America'

Working on creating the Polaroid camera on "the Mega Brands That Built America." There are many things that are known about former NFL quarterback Peyton Manning — that he spent 14 years as a professional player, that he's a five time Most Valuable Player, and has won two Super Bowls — but what most people might not be aware of is that he's fascinated with that past. 'I think if you ask my mother or any of my teachers growing up, they would tell you that history was always one of my favorite subjects, so I guess you could say I've always been a little bit of a history buff,' he reveals. Manning's affection for history is now coming in handy as he's executing producing the series The Mega-Brands That Built America. The series explores the surprising origin stories behind some of the world's biggest brands including Home Depot, Levi's, Apple, Kodak, Amazon, Target and more. Blending archival footage, original recreations, and expert interviews, the nonfiction series offers captivating portrayals of the most iconic brands across retail, electronics, automobiles, and more, with a focus on their trailblazing founders whose ingenuity, passion, and fearlessness created groundbreaking innovations that revolutionized our nation. The Mega-Brands That Built America is produced by Omaha Productions and Lucky 8 for The History Channel. PARIS, FRANCE - JULY 26: Peyton Manning attends the red carpet ahead of the opening ceremony of the ... More Olympic Games Paris 2024 on July 26, 2024 in Paris, France. (Photo by) Describing his role in the series, Manning admits, 'I am not front and center of and that's something that I really like. I like being part of a show that I'm not the quarterback, if you will. You'll see me pop up here and there, but we have historians, professors, journalists, and the entrepreneurs guiding the viewer throughout the series, and those experts really teach the lesson in each episode, my role would be more of the everyday consumer. I talk about how I interact with these brands and products in my everyday life.' However, this isn't to say that Manning isn't doing the behind-the-scenes work. "I generally like to help with the guest booking, join on the pitch meetings, and I watch the rough cuts and kind of give my two cents and thoughts where I can help. [Now]He quickly adds, 'But I also like the fact that [this series] has people smarter than me, that are experts in this space, that know what's best and what's going to make a great show. So we have a good collaborative team." Manning says that he's learned a lot working on the series, but one of the things about a brand that he found particularly interesting is that, 'In the late 1990's there was a new Home Depot opening every 53 hours in the continental United States. That's pretty fascinating to me. We're all so familiar with a big brand like Home Depot, but it just wasn't around 40 years ago, so I thought that was cool.' Along these lines, Manning points out about the series that, 'I promise that you'll learn something new in every episode. We're all familiar with names like Steve Jobs and Jeff Bezos today, but the show really takes viewers to the early days of these huge companies and how they built their businesses. And, it's great to watch as a family. My kids watch it. They learn something. My wife and I learn something. It's a good show to watch with your family' He feels that The Mega-Brands That Built America is timely as well, saying, 'This show is so topical because we interact with these brands every single day in our day to day lives.' While he may be known for his on-field accomplishments, in this case Manning is happy to be, in a sense, a bit more on the sidelines, as he concludes, 'I love being a part of shows that are outside of sports, and one of the core tenants at Omaha Productions is that we want to champion hard work, and that is exactly what this series is all about. We're celebrating the hard work of all the people behind the scenes at these huge brands that have literally built America.' 'The Mega-Brands That Built America' airs Sundays at 10/9c on the History Channel and episodes are available for streaming the next day at
