The Vatican mystery of Harry Styles
Because, of course, what better place for Harry Styles than Saint Peter’s Square in the middle of the papal election? The former member of One Direction, known for his love of stages and impossible looks, decided that his next tourist stop would be the epicenter of Christianity. Reason? Mystery. Style? Impeccable, as always.
The singer, 31, tried (and failed) in his camouflage mission with a blue jacket, sunglasses and a cap that read “Techno Is My Boyfriend”. Because nothing screams “discretion” like a declaration of love for a musical genre in your head. One fan recognized it instantly, because, let’s be honest, who else wears that combination of fashion and absurdity in the middle of the Vatican?
The epic moment that no one expected
“While I was watching the Pope’s announcement, Harry Styles walked past me and our eyes met,” wrote the lucky (or traumatized?) witness in X. Because what is more surreal? See the new pope or meet the man who sang Watermelon Sugar among cardinals and faithful?
Styles, who has kept a low profile since his “Love on Tour”, appears to have specialized in random appearances. In March he ran a marathon in Tokyo (because why not?) and was seen in London wearing jeans and loafers at a running club. Clearly, man lives in a parallel universe where logic is optional.
What is a pop star doing in the Vatican? Perhaps he was looking for inspiration for his next album: Holy Watermelon Sugar. Or maybe he just wanted to see if the Pope also sings Sign of the Times in the shower. The only thing certain is that, while the world debated the future of the Church, the internet asked itself: “Is Harry Styles now a religious symbol?”.
