Where are X Factor 2010 contestants now? From Liam Payne's One Direction to winner Matt Cardle - Rebecca Ferguson and Cher Lloyd are among the X Factor 2010 stars who have paid tribute to their fellow contestant Liam Payne,

Liam Payne first registered on the pop radar as a fresh-faced 14-year-old, trying out for The X Factor in 2008. "I should really be concentrating on my [school] work but I just think about singing too much," he said before his first audition, his Wolverhampton accent and thick fringe front and centre.

One Direction have paid tribute to Liam Payne following his tragic death, saying they are 'completely devastated' and will miss the singer 'terribly'.
