Argentine energy tycoon seen with liam payne minutes before his death in buenos aires hotel
Liam Payne’s tragic death in Buenos Aires has left many questions unanswered. Witnesses revealed that Payne spent his last hours with Rogelio ‘Roger’ Nores, an Argentine energy tycoon.
Their interactions, captured by several guests, shed light on the singer’s final moments before his fatal fall from a hotel balcony.
The incident has prompted authorities to investigate Nores’ role and the circumstances surrounding Payne’s passing.
Nores and Payne’s last interaction
Roger Nores, 35, was seen with Payne at the CasaSur Palermo Hotel shortly before the singer’s death.
Witnesses stated that Nores appeared frustrated and even apologized to other guests for Payne’s behavior, citing the singer being “high.”
According to reports, Nores was trying to persuade Payne to leave the hotel room, showing clear signs of irritation.
A guest recalled, “Roger was rolling his eyes at Liam and apologetically gesturing, as if to say, ‘Can you believe this guy?’”
This tension between the two was evident to onlookers, suggesting that Nores was trying to manage Payne’s behavior, which seemed erratic due to drug use.
Witnesses described Nores’ attempts to get Payne to his room.
He was seen holding the elevator door open, urging the singer to head upstairs. “Roger was standing in the lift, trying to get Liam to go up, but Liam seemed distracted, trying to catch the attention of fans,” another guest recounted. Despite his efforts, Nores was unsuccessful in controlling the situation.
At one point, Nores jokingly pretended to choke Payne, and the two were seen laughing. Despite the apparent playfulness, it was clear that Nores wanted Payne to return to his room. Eventually, they both took the elevator up to the third floor, where Payne’s room was located.
The witness accounts detail the circumstances of Nores’ departure.
Rebecca, an IT consultant from Washington, shared her observations about the scene at the hotel. She mentioned that Nores seemed to be trying to help Payne check out, as their booking had expired.
However, Payne refused to comply, further complicating the situation. “Roger apologized to the hotel staff for Liam’s behavior, saying, ‘I’m sorry about Liam, he just gets so high,'” Rebecca said. After this, Nores left the hotel, appearing calm and composed.
“Roger was just a member of Liam’s entourage trying to manage a rock star being difficult,” she added. Witnesses also confirmed that Nores was not present at the hotel when Payne fell to his death.
The complex friendship between Payne and Nores
Nores and Payne had been seen together multiple times in recent weeks, raising questions about their relationship. Payne was even photographed holding hands with Nores, leading to speculations about a romantic connection.
Payne, however, clarified the rumors. “There were a lot of things in magazines saying me and Roger are gay together – not true, unfortunately,” he stated, emphasizing that their bond was purely platonic.
Payne joked, “If I was [gay], I might go for him, who knows. But I’m not, and he’s not, so I know he won’t either.” This statement was intended to put an end to rumors surrounding their friendship.
Rogelio ‘Roger’ Nores is not just a friend of Payne’s but also a well-known figure in the energy industry.
He was named among Forbes’ “Under 30s” in the energy sector in 2017. Nores’ company, which owned four power stations, was bought by a Canadian power corporation, making him a significant figure in Argentina’s business community.
Despite his prominence, Nores maintains a low profile on social media, with Payne being one of only two accounts he follows on Instagram.
The involvement of Rogelio ‘Roger’ Nores in Liam Payne’s final hours has garnered significant attention.
Witness accounts suggest that Nores attempted to manage Payne’s behavior, yet the circumstances leading to the singer’s tragic fall remain unclear.
As tributes pour in from fans and Payne’s former bandmates, questions linger about what truly happened during those final moments. Authorities continue to investigate, with Nores likely a key figure in understanding the events leading to Payne’s untimely death.
