Harry Styles, the solo singer, One Direction ex boyband member, songwriter, actor or whatever you wish to call him, is always taking over the internet. Sometimes with his outfits that break the standards of womenâs and menâs clothing, sometimes only with his hair or his mustache. And sometimes he takes over the charts with his incredible songs. But the important thing here is that he is rocking it either way!
Styles (26), as well as the other members of One Direction, has been charming the world since the reality show The X-Factor, where the band was created. Nowadays, as a solo singer, he didnât stop to surprise and win hearts all over the world. And this year, even in quarantine, that didnât change; in fact we all had time to start loving him even more.

In the new era of his second album âFine Lineâ, released in December 2019, he drove his fans crazy by tweeting just the word âDoâ. His fans were obviously excited, but for real no one understood what he meant by that. Therefore, âDO WHATâ started trending on Twitter, clearly everybody was curious, and after a while they discovered that it was about his new single released last October, âLights Upâ. The songâs lyrics say âDo You Know Who You Are?â and this question promoted the single with posters all around the world.
And every time Harry makes a move there is always a topic about him trending worldwide. Just a while ago, Harryâs fans found out that he had shaved his mustache, and in a matter of minutes âHE SHAVEDâ started to trend. Some days later, a fan met him and posted the photo they took, the fans loved how his hair looked like so the trend âHIS HAIRâ became worldwide again.
Harry, being a complete artist, had already worked as an actor in the movie âDunkirkâ directed by Christopher Nolan. Now we know that he is coming back to the big screen with the movie âDonât Worry, Darlingâ. As soon his new role was announced, it started trending on Twitter. Â

One special thing about âAdore Youâ is its music video. Styles and his team created an imaginary island called Eroda just to promote the track 3 on his upcoming album Fine Line. A thread on Twitter went viral as people tried to find out what this island was, once it wasnât on the maps but video campaigns started promoting tourism do Eroda.
Turns out the fans started relating the imaginary island to Fine Lineâs track 3. A lot of evidence linked this mystery to Styles new album and single. Eroda backwards is Adore, a reference to âAdore Youâ. The island website mentions âCherry Streetâ and âGolden Wayâ; Cherry and Golden are tracks 5 and 1 of Fine Line. And it goes on. Of course, Eroda started trending on Twitter, and stayed on Trending Topics for a lot of time.

He is not just a good singer. Harry has also a big influence in the fashion world with his different and revolutionary outfits and sense of fashion. In February of this year, Harry wore a cardigan on his performance at âThe Today Showâ that was memorable.
TikTok started a trend under the hashtag #harrystylescardigan, which fans make their own knitted homemade cardigan, inspired by the one worn by Styles. Not only this JW Anderson cardigan, but lots of his clothing pieces influenced his fans to make their own or buy them so they could have the same sense of fashion as their idol. Â
Other than that, a lot of Harryâs fans made incredible makeups inspired by the songs of the new album. Others did nail art inspired by Fine Line tracks just like the singer did on his own nails.

But an amazing aspect about him is what he spreads to the world. In his motto (and his song) âTreat People With Kindnessâ, Harry is fighting against hate and seeking to spread love and kindness to everybody, influencing his fans to act the same way. Harry always ends his tweets with Love H, or TPWK (short for his motto). In his concerts, he seeks to create an environment where everyone can feel comfortable with being themselves, as he once said: âIf you are black, if you are white, if you are gay, if you are straight, if you are transgender – whoever you are, whoever you want to be, I support you. I love every single one of oneâ. An amazing singer, but an amazing person too.
So, as Harry Styles would say, TPWK.
