On Oct. 16, at approximately 5:01 p.m. local time, the desk manager at the CasaSur Palermo Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina, placed a call to 911. “We have a guest drunk with drugs and alcohol,” he claimed to the operator. “When he is conscious, he is breaking everything in the room. We need to send someone with urgency because I don’t know if the guest’s life is in danger because he is in a room with balcony, and we are afraid he could do something that threatens life.” Ten minutes later, police say Liam Payne jumped to his death. “There’s a collective sense of stunned disbelief within his inner circle,” a source tells Life & Style. “The scale of grief is impossible to process, let alone put into words.” While a…

The allegations were shocking. Kanye West’s former assistant Lauren Pisciotta is accusing the 47-year-old rapper of drugging and sexually assaulting her at a Santa Monica studio session he co-hosted with Sean “Diddy” Combs.
