Harry Styles acknowledged the stifling conditions facing his crowd of “Harries” as he kicked off the Australian leg of Love on Tour in Perth on Monday night.
and ended with his former boy band One Direction’s hitStyles is by no means an accomplished dancer, but he moved around the stage with energy and interacted genuinely with his fans during the show.There’s no doubting his gravitational pull on young people and their devotion and fascination when it comes to anything to do with Harry’s world. Styles is so wildly popular that a video of a fan throwing a Skittle at his face mid-concert went viral.
And no doubt the video of Styles partaking in the “disgusting” Australian ritual of doing a shoey – drinking from a shoe – will also make its way around the globe. Part of the fan frenzy can be explained by his boyish charm and ability to engage with effortless banter with his Harries, most obvious when reading out their homemade fan signs. One girl had travelled from Sydney despite having a broken back after falling off a horse. Another woman had a sign that read “I dragged my husband here from Sydney”. Take note State Daddy, it’s not just the UFC that is a powerful drawcard to entice interstate tourists to head west.
While his lyrics occasionally titillate and delve into sex and drugs, they do so in a PG way that still makes the reigning pop king emerge as a little bit naughty but nice, like a dirty joke hidden in a Disney movie. He’s someone you could introduce to your grandmother and she’d say he was a lovely chap.Sign of the Times
