HBD, Harry.
It's February 1st. That means a lot of things. It means it's finally my birthday month! It means that Luke's birthday is in 6 days. It means It means that I am no longer living in the bliss that is JTerm. It means it is my last first day of class--EVER. It means I graduate in 106 days. It means I've made it through one month of blogs and only have 11 more to go.
I'm freaking about about a lot of those things.
But today is not a day to freak out about those things. Today is a day to freak out about Harold Edward Styles. It's his birthday. He's 24 years old. Here's 24 things I really enjoy about him:
1: He's coming to St. Paul this summer so I get to see him in concert!!
2: Even if it's without these three beautiful band mates whom I love his relationship with:
3: He loves an accepts everybody. He's an ally to people in the LGBTQ community and women and has often shown fans struggling with mental or physical illnesses support.
4: He also said this to the Rolling Stone: "Who’s to say that young girls who like pop music — short for popular, right? — have worse musical taste than a 30-year-old hipster guy?" he said. "That’s not up to you to say. Music is something that’s always changing. There’s no goal posts. Young girls like the Beatles. You gonna tell me they’re not serious? How can you say young girls don’t get it? They’re our future. Our future doctors, lawyers, mothers, presidents, they kind of keep the world going. Teenage-girl fans — they don’t lie. If they like you, they’re there. They don’t act ‘too cool.’ They like you, and they tell you. Which is sick."
5: And further, his merchandise for his tour looks like this:
6: He dances like this:
7: And he also dances like this:
8: And also like this:
9: And his tattoos look like this:
10: He decided he wanted to fly in his first solo music video.
12: He also rocks a beanie. I like a man who can rock a beanie.
13: He looks this good falling:
14: He looks this good in weird AF suits:
15: He put puppies in his music video:
16: He did all the things in Dunkirk.
17: One word: Marcel.
18: His XFactor audition is precious as heck:
19: He still holds the back of his pants up after that one time Liam pantsed him during What Makes You Beautiful
20: He talks about fame like he's 100 instead of a child, basically: “I feel like when people label people as famous, they take away a lot of substance that they have as a person. So you don’t remember someone as ‘He was funny’, or ‘They were really nice and giving’. It’s like ‘They were famous’, and then it becomes a thing where anything after that, whatever you choose to do afterwards… if it’s not as famous, or more famous than it was before. it’s considered a failure. And that’s a shame, because it’s not a failure, always.”
22: When he turned 22, he acknowledged his infamous fling with TSwift in the most Harry way possible:
23: He always gives us all the love.
24: And finally, all of the other things that make him who he is that I didn't have time or space to mention.
Happy Birthday, you beautiful goofball.
