One Direction star Liam Payne escaped unharmed after a fire broke out at his home but three others were taken to hospital with injuries.

The singer was in the flat on the 34th floor of a luxury block in Canary Wharf, in London’s Docklands, when firefighters were called.

Two men and a women were treated for burns after a blaze started on the balcony but a spokesman for the star said he was unharmed.

Station manager Laurie Kenny, from London Fire Brigade, said: “Firefighters worked quickly and professionally to get the fire under control as quickly as possible.

“Around 30 people left the building before we arrived and were not injured. Two of the occupants had superficial burns to their hands and the third had burns to his hands and face. All three have been taken to hospital.”

Six fire engines and 35 firefighters were called to the scene. The cause of the fire is being investigated.

One response to “Liam Payne’s home catches fire”

  1. Ray got dropped from the label right??? So he’s in the same boat as any other indie artsit in Ohio right now. He had one video that was played on BET like twice. Please show me some stats of his record selling more in other states. I really can’t believe that. It doesn’t matter who produces your album or who you work with in the industry today, it’s about being known. I know plenty of artsits who have had tracks produced by Dallas Austin, Timbaland, Pharrell, Kanye, etc. and people still haven’t heard of them and have no clue who they are. You need a strong fan base, a label backing, marketing to the masses, and major tours overseas and in the U.S. to REALLY make it. Don’t get me wrong it’s good to have a known producer, but it won’t make or break your career these days.
