Months Of Agony

[Blind Gossip] When young stars get into trouble, we frequently hear people say that their team should have done more to help them.

Well, in the case of this young male singer, his team definitely tried. And failed.

Another one of their artists, [Redacted], had OD’d. It was horrific. They were so distraught over it, they said it would “never happen again on our watch” with another one of their artists.

So when The Singer’s drug habit spiraled out of control, one manager spent months going above and beyond trying to help him.

She went through months of agony with him! She tried everything: arranging counseling, setting up interventions, literally taking him to rehab. He refused every bit of help, every time. What more was she supposed to do? He’s not her son, he’s her client, and he was so f*cked up mentally and physically that he didn’t even want to show up for work.

He was not her only client, either, and his addiction was pulling down the entire company.

They rep at least a dozen acts, and they were spending 90% of their time dealing with him and his bulls*t. To what end? He’s an addict who won’t get help and who is going to die. She had other people to think about and she had to walk away to save the company (and her sanity). Know that it was not easy for her to let him go. In fact, she was in tears over it! I will go ballistic if people try to blame her when he OD’s.

    i dont know he looks shockingly sick if he keeps up his habits it wont be a good ending

  3. Singer: Zayn

    [Optional: He’ll be fine and not “addicted to drugs” as everyone thinks he is.]

    His manager who dropped him repped that Lil Peep who ODed last year.

    Don’t blame her at all. There is only so much you can do if someone doesn’t want help. Zayn will be dead in a year if he doesn’t get help. How close is he to 27?

    • Caring about an addict is slow drip water torture. You can support to the ends of the earth. Only when the addict wants help will it matter. As I learned during Family Week at Hazelden, you can’t sacrifice yourself to save an addict. “Letting go with love” is the best choice, despite the pain it causes us loved ones.

    Dropped by manager Sarah Stennett

    I see him releasing new music and a new self. Hopefully.

  10. Zayn Malik was dropped by manager Sarah Stennett a day or two ago.
    10 feet under … sadly

    It’s sad actually. I mean, if he’s that bad and continues to refuse help, he’s going to die. I’m not her fan nor know his music (minus two songs lol) but I really hope he get the help he needs.

  13. Zayn Malik from One Direction

    If he continues to refuse help, he’ll die before the year is up. His family need to force him into a long term rehab. What a waste.

  18. zayn? i never posted about this online but i saw him one times going into a dunkin donuts in NYC in 2015 and he was all sweaty and pale. he looked like he didn’t wanna be recognized. looking back, i think he was on drugs.

  25. Zayn Malik
    Hopefully he gets help for his addictions. He’s got too much talent to throw it away and he hasnt even reached his full potential yet
