her post continued. “We shared the same love and passion for music and I will
forever remember the meaningful and joyful conversations we had.”

soul and character.”

Broadway, which includes the compositions of the legendary Andrew Lloyd Webber.
Webber talked to Billboard about Scherzinger discovering her
mentee Payne had died.
“On the Wednesday when he
died, she was still texting him that day, and [that evening] the reviewers came
in [to ‘Sunset’], she’d just heard that he died,” Webber said. “And the fact
that she even did the show at all is extraordinary. I mean she is an amazing,
amazing woman. She is without any question one of the finest performers I’ve
ever worked with.”
