Liam Payne will feature in a new Netflix talent competition series as a guest judge alongside Destiny’s Child singer Kelly Rowland, which will air months on from his death.

Building The Band, which brings together singers to form bands without seeing each other, was announced in September by the streaming giant, before Payne died aged 31 on October 16 following a fall from a hotel balcony in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Netflix confirmed that Pussycat Dolls star Nicole Scherzinger will take on the mentor and judge role, while Payne and Rowland will appear as guest judges in the show, which features a similar concept to Love Is Blind with contestants kept in separate booths.

The streaming giant confirmed the release as it revealed its 2025 slate of releases across TV and film.
