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 went 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.

    Singer: Zayn Malik just got dropped from his management and the other singer that overdosed was Lil Peep

    Optional: I don’t think he’ll be dead, probably stop performing though

    Zayn Malik.

    A year from now he might be dead or in jail. It’s a shame because he’s real talented

  8. Female says

    Clearly Zayn Malik and his manager, Sarah Stennett.

    Zayn does have a mother – and several adult sisters – who are frequently pictured traveling with him, so who knows where they are in this whole addiction scenario.

    It’s been pretty funny over the past few days to watch the ZSquad, Zayn’s hysterical fan base, attack Stennett, as well as hitting out against anyone who suggests Zayn has a drug problem. Their new tactic is accusing people of being racist against Zayn.

    Zayn Malik
    lil Peep who overdosed recently
    He will probably Overdose, if he is as deep into it as his people say he is.

    Singer: Zayn

    [Optional] Where is he going to be a year from now? Prayerfully, I say REHAB’D and SOBER!

  19. MartyMia says

    Yikes how can you say that so freely? Hopefully something can get through to him so that he gets the help he needs

  20. sayswho says

    Sarah Stennett is really smearing Zayn on her way out. While I doubt he is the purest client in the world this all sounds like a PR scenario to ruin someone

  21. Nooneintheuk says

    Zayn Malik’s former rep Sarah Stennett from First Access dropping him for being ‘difficult’.

    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.

    IMHO, I think he is the type of person who craves attention and wants his loved ones to beg him to turn his life around before it’s too late! It’s a play on his ego and the more concerned they are about him the more it feeds his ego! Unfortunately, the gratification of his ego comes too late , ergo: he dies! Just say’en.
