The entertainment world has been shaken by the death of Liam Payne, former member of the wildly successful boy band One Direction. Now, news surfaced that he had multiple drugs in his system at the time of his tragic death.
According to a preliminary autopsy, the singer had taken various substances before falling from the third-floor balcony of a hotel in Argentina. It was reported that Payne's system contained "pink cocaine," regular cocaine, benzodiazepines, and crack cocaine.
What is Pink Cocaine?
"Pink cocaine," also known as 'cocaína rosa' or 'Tusi,' is a synthetic drug that resembles cocaine in appearance but has different chemical components.
Experts explained that the substance is created from a mix of various chemicals, often including MDMA and other psychoactive substances. It typically comes in pink powder or crystal form, which gives the drug its distinctive name.
The effects of pink cocaine are similar to other recreational drugs, producing heightened energy, euphoria, and altered perception. However, the drug's exact composition can vary widely, making its use extremely risky. Because its properties are largely unknown, the potential for severe adverse effects is much higher.

Liam Payne's Death: The Investigation Continues
While no concrete details have been released about the circumstances leading to Liam Payne's death, the tragic event has reignited discussions about the pressures artists face, as well as the party culture and possible drug use within that environment to relieve stress.
Mental health and addiction experts have long warned about the dangers of recreational drug use, especially in industries where access to these substances is easy, and the stigma surrounding seeking help can be overwhelming.
According to the preliminary autopsy report, obtained by the Argentinian newspaper Clarín, Payne's death was linked to "multiple traumas" and "internal and external hemorrhages" after falling from the balcony of his hotel room in Buenos Aires.
This information was made public by the National Office of Criminalistics and Corrections of Argentina, which also reported that Payne had sustained 25 injuries consistent with a fall from a significant height.
The investigation is currently being treated as a "suspicious death," following standard protocols. Reports suggest that the singer was alone at the time of the fall and may have been experiencing an episode related to substance abuse.
Police received an emergency call shortly before the incident, reporting a guest who appeared to be under the influence of drugs and alcohol.
As authorities continue to investigate, the entertainment industry grapples with another loss attributed to the pressures and dark sides of fame.
