Harry Styles On His Album Of The Year Grammy Win (Forbes)

Styles, who also won for Best Pop Vocal Album, discussed the continuity of creating the album, which debuted at No. 1 on The Billboard 200 chart when it was ...

“So we are always writing and like to attempt to have the same intention behind what we are making.” “The atmosphere that is created in live music and the experiencing of that... Playing for an amazing group of people every night is my favorite, favorite thing to do.” And in reality I very much feel like the fans create that atmosphere for me, and the room is this energy that almost feels like it’s too magical for me to take any responsibility for,” he said. “It’s amazing to see the way songs that mean so much to me, to see how much they mean to other people when you're playing for them. “More than anything, it just kind of feels like validation that you're on the right path,” said Styles in the press room after his win.

Grammys 2023: Beyoncé breaks record as Harry Styles, Kendrick ... (The Irish Times)

Beyoncé won a record-breaking 32nd Grammy Award, while Harry Styles won album of the year.

Accepting the album award, he thanked his family “for giving me the courage and giving me the vulnerability to share my truth and share these stories.” It was won by Tobias Jesso Jr., who has written songs for Adele, Styles and others. The prize was chosen by what the academy described as a “blue-ribbon committee.” Harry’s House also won Styles the award for pop vocal album. Raitt (73), was the surprise winner of song of the year – beating Adele, Beyoncé, Swift, Lizzo and Styles, whose songs were huge hits – for Just Like That, a tender meditation about an organ donation that had only modest commercial success. The power of stardom was another of the night’s big underlying themes. “I hope that there’s a future where gender and identity and all these labels don’t matter that much,” Petras told reporters backstage. Gender freedom was a theme running through the night. She had been the most nominated artist of the evening, with nine nods. “You clearly are the artist of our lives!” she shouted. (Even so, Beyoncé faced a backlash recently when she performed a private concert in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, where homosexuality is illegal.) But she was once again shut out of the big categories, winning all four of her prizes for the night in down-ballot genre categories.

Is Celebrity 'Queer Baiting' Really Such a Crime? (The New York Times)

Even as gender and masculinity are more fluid than ever, it can still rankle when male stars co-opt traditionally gay codes and styles.

Queer, in this era, means what you say it means: It can mean “I haven’t, but I’d try it” or “I don’t see myself as traditionally heterosexual” or “I don’t want anybody to think I lack imagination” or “My sense of my own sexual identity or tastes is that they’re out of the mainstream” or “I would, but only with Harry Styles” or “I don’t know yet.” “Queer” is one-size-fits-all; there is no entrance requirement. [tweet](https://www.billboard.com/culture/pride/omar-apollo-shuts-down-queerbaiting-rumors-nsfw-tweet-1235178135/), he refuted the charge explicitly (in both senses of the word) with a concise reply saying, “No I b [participating in a common consensual same-sex activity described in two words that this publication would be perfectly OK with you Googling] fr [for real].” It’s great when it’s that easy. “Queer” is used by some gay men interchangeably with “gay,” and you can just as easily identify as queer and lesbian, queer and bisexual, queer and trans. The first is “Straight; heterosexual and cisgender; a Kinsey zero.” The second is “Anything other than that.” “Queer” has come to stand in for option number two, and it has created a tent so big that some of the people inside it aren’t completely comfortable with the company they’re keeping. (And what someone deciding whether to hire an actor is entitled to ask about that actor’s sexuality is, for very good reasons, also nothing.) The price of a ticket entitles you only to good work — if you’re lucky; it doesn’t buy you the promise that you’re going to be witnessing embodied personal history. The idea that homosexuality can be teased in flourishes and gestures recalls a much more repressive era (five decades ago) in which gay performers like Paul Lynde and Charles Nelson Reilly couldn’t do more than occasionally throw a plausibly deniable smirk to their “if you know, you know” gay fan base if they wanted to remain employable. And what about his role in last year’s period drama “ [My Policeman](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/20/movies/my-policeman-review.html)” as a gay British cop in the 1950s prevented from living his truth by a stultifying and bigoted world? And at least one version of Styles is very [maybe-something-else](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/27/arts/music/pop-men-harry-styles-jack-harlow-bad-bunny.html): the one posing in a dress on the cover of a women’s fashion magazine. And in truth, “L.G.B.T.” has always been an imperfect portmanteau, since its first three letters are shorthand for “Who I’m attracted to” and its fourth is a shorthand for “Who I am.” Today, for many very young people eager to discover and announce their identities long before they’ve had any sexual experience with another person, the designation they select is much likelier to connote “This is me” than “This is what I do.” And the idea here is laudable: Nobody should have to go through life, especially adolescent life, experiencing the loneliness that comes with feeling that there’s not even a word with which they can describe themselves. A quick primer, for those of you who, like me, are over a certain age and may be more familiar with the term “gay baiting”: This is one of those squirmy evolving-language things in which, faster than you might ever imagine, a phrase comes to mean almost exactly the opposite of what it once meant. How many of you know what that label cost people to obtain?” Not that the label itself carries much weight with Zoomers; the term “L.G.B.T.,” first coined more than 30 years ago, is now seen by many young people as a relic, little more than a makeshift beta test undertaken by their parents’ generation. Right now, the most charged queer-baiting discussion is about men — not a surprise, since any trace of sexual ambiguity in a male star has always excited an intense degree of interest, suspicion and paranoia about the perceived undermining of masculinity.

Harry Styles' Grammys red carpet jumpsuit channels 'clowncore' (CNN)

Not only did the singer take home two Grammy Awards on Sunday evening, but he also served up some of the ceremony's most talked-about outfits.

Taking the stage to scoop up the coveted Album of the Year and Best Pop Vocal Album for "Harry's House," he looked dapper in a cropped white suit jacket and wide-legged tan-colored pants. Others dubbed the look an example of "clowncore," while the singer also drew comparisons — both favorable and disparaging — to two of Britain's most flamboyant pop icons: Elton John and David Bowie. The former One Direction star began the night in a plunging technicolor jumpsuit that revealed a collection of butterfly and bird tattoos on his otherwise bare chest.

How Harry's House Beat Beyoncé (Vulture)

In [the new Songwriter of the Year award](https://www.vulture.com/2022/11/songwriter-of-the-year-grammy-why-it-matters.html), two of the five nominees had cuts on Styles’s album, including the eventual winner, Tobias Jesso Jr. (It’s a little surprising “As It Was” didn’t earn any hardware, but the wins for Harry’s House seem to be recognition of the album as a body of hits.) After the Academy was criticized for giving Jon Batiste’s We Are, an album without a single top-40 hit, AOTY last year, Styles’s project gave them the opportunity to be on the pulse, at no expense of its perspective. [Shania Twain](https://www.vulture.com/2022/04/harry-styles-late-night-talking-boyfriends-shania-twain-coachella.html)) and present ( [Lizzo](https://www.vulture.com/2022/04/harry-styles-lizzo-i-will-survive-coachella-surprise-guest.html)). As it faded out, Styles and his team teed up hits-in-waiting “Late Night Talking” and “Music for A Sushi Restaurant,” both of which hit the top ten. Styles had a hold on the charts as well, with “As It Was” logging a record five separate runs atop the Hot 100, from its No. Blige, Kendrick Lamar, or Lizzo stole votes from her, why didn’t the same happen to Styles with ABBA, Adele, or Coldplay?) It also feels beside the point to argue whether Styles deserved AOTY over Beyoncé — [we’ve done that with her past two snubs for Beyoncé and Lemonade](https://www.vulture.com/2017/02/what-more-does-beyonc-have-to-do-to-win-album-of-the-year.html), and the answer remains a resounding yes.

Harry Styles Faces The Heat Of A Beyoncé Fan At Grammys 2023 ... (koimoi)

A Beyoncé fan showed off their frustration by yelling at Harry Styles while he expressed his gratitude after his Grammy win. Read on!

Harry Styles, who won the Award for ‘Harry’s House’ in his speech, said, “I think on nights like tonight it’s important for us to remember there is no such thing as ‘best’ in music. Hence, [Swift](https://www.koimoi.com/hollywood-news/do-you-know-taylor-swift-wanted-to-be-a-part-of-twilight-but-director-rejected-her-thinking-of-her-as-a-distraction/) could relate to what he felt at that moment. While he stood there expressing his gratitude, one of the fans shouted, “Get off the stage.” While he continued his speech, they again yelled, “Beyoncé should have won.” It was a big night for him, but it turned out to be somewhat humiliating because of what followed after he went on stage to receive the honour. For the unversed, Queen Bey created history with her record win of thirty-two Grammys, while on the other hand, the Don’t Worry Darling actor has won about three.
