HARRY STYLES: THAT IS ALL

“After the show, I’m walking down one of the backstage corridors and Harry’s just walking on his own towards me and so I meet him in the middle and I’m like, man you really didn’t have to do that, like thank you so much for that, and he goes ‘Do y’know what was really funny? I could see the immediate second anxiety manifested in your mind.’ He caught it, he saw it-as soon as he let my hand go. He’s so on it, he knows humans so well. […] It was a very very sweet gesture from Harry and I’m going to get him back for it one day.”

“We have nothing, nothing yet. There's nothing in the diary […] It’s been a minute, so I'm hoping that you know, we're going to have 26 or 27. Something's going to pop up, but at this point, who knows? Obviously he lost one of his brothers incredibly, sadly, you know, from One Direction so I think everyone’s just giving him space. Harry is the best person I know in the industry, not that I’m texting him everyday but I’ve had enough time with him. He’s done some amazing things for me personally on a family level. He’s a very very special guy and I know that hit him hard and everyone’s just sort of giving him a bit of time. He’s the best dude. It takes that man 40 minutes to get into the building because he will stop and he will say hello every single person. Venue security, local caterers, local crew. He will stop and say hello, my name’s Harry, how are you, how are you doing today? He’s the man. I could fill a book with the amount of good things I’ve seen that guy do that nobody knows about. There’s no PR bullshit. He just does stuff because he’s a good human.”

“Back in 2018, we were on a bullet train in Japan and I fell asleep because we were all tired and there's a video of Harry drawing my initials in Sharpie on my face while I'm asleep and nobody told me. It was only when I got back to my hotel room and looked in the mirror that I saw I had my own initials on my face and I had to text the group and go, who did this? And then I got a video sent to me of Harry just doing it and Harry's like, how is he not waking up? How is he not waking up? And he's just drawing on my face. So that's what I mean to say when I've worked with some people that are, that are nowhere near as big as Harry but they’ll bubble themselves, which you know, there's a bit of a hierarchy, which is fine, but there's something special to be said about Harry for as big as he is. And like if he had a God complex, you wouldn't blame him. You wouldn't blame him if he did, but he doesn't. He's the most grounded person I've ever had the privilege of meeting.”

“I call him the Terminator because he does this thing in the first 3 songs that we've worked out where he'll be scanning, he'll do the audience and nothing is planned outside of the songs. All of the ad libs that he does in between stuff is him on the fly. Nobody knows what's coming. And those first 3 songs he is just downloading, “OK, I've seen this sign, l've seen this sign, I've seen this sign. That person I'm going to speak to after this song, that person I'm going to speak to two or three times.” It seems planned. It seems scripted. And everyday I'm shaking my head and I'm like, this guy's an alien. He's an alien. People go on their own and then they walk out with six friends. It's a special thing. He is kindness.”

Reminds me of this!
