Liam Payne‘s solo train pulled into Wembley Stadium today for the 2017 Capital FM Summertime Ball.
Opting to take residence in the “Urban” space, the 23-year-old recently released single ‘Strip That Down’ – which he performed for the 50,000 in attendance.
Backed by dancers and getting down to choreography himself, Payne is clearly trying. Is it enough, though? Watch below and let us know…
Sigh.
It’s odd because he’s hitting his marks, but he still makes for an uncomfortable watch. One look at his expression and it’s clear he’s counting every single step. Every one of them.
Elsewhere, the vocals are present but in scarily thin quantity.
Thus far, we’re yet to be convinced by this game of Justin Timberlake dress-up Liam is playing. Perhaps it’s this single, “him,” or both. Whatever the case, it’s not working. Yet.
