Harry Edward Styles was born in Evesham, Worcestershire, England on February 1, 1994. He is the youngest member of One Direction.
Harry has an older sister names Gemma, and his parents names are Anne and Des. Harry was raised in Holmes Chapel in Cheshire and attended the local comprehensive school, Holmes Chapel Comprehensive. That was where he discovered his love for singing, he was the lead singer of the band White Eskimo with 3 of his friends. Harry auditioned during Series 7 of The X-Factor in 2010. He received positive feedback from Nicole Scherzinger and Simon Cowell when Harry sang Stevie Wonder's “Isn’t She Lovely”. In wasn't all positive as judge Louis Walsh had doubts about whether Harry would progress in the competition. When it came to the judges votes, Louis gave Harry a “No” vote, so Simon encouraged the crowd to boo Louis. So when the crowd booed, so did Harry! With 2 yes votes from Nicole and Simon, Harry went through to Boot Camp. That would be where he would face rejection after singing “Stop Crying Your Heart Out." Luckily that wasn't the end of the road for Harry, Simon Cowell invited him Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne and Niall Horan in and move forward in the competition as a group.
When it came down to determining what this new formed group would be called it is Harry who is credited with coming up with the name “One Direction." His reasoning behind it was that it would sound good when The X-Factor announcer said the groups name during the show. Harry is a major fan of the Manchester United. Musically however, he is big fan of John Meyer and says that Coldplay and Kings of Leon are also among his musical interests and influences. Even Elvis Presley is an influences of Harry's, he used to sing his songs when he was younger. Harry has had an image as the "womanizer" of One Direction, but says that isn't exactly true and is something the media created. Harry has though been linked to many girls during his time in One Direction, including Xtra Factor host Caroline Flack, who is around fifteen years older than him. Despite all the girls he supposedly has been linked with, Harry is currently enjoying the single life. |

“My favorite party trick is to wear nothing but a gold thong in the house.” “If I wasn't in the band I reckon I'd be a virgin.” “I like girls, but I prefer having a girlfriend. I like having someone I can spoil.” “A real girl isn't perfect and a perfect girl isn't real.” “I want a girl who respects herself. It means her standards are high and if I fit them then i’d be honored. If she’s easy then what does that say about me?” |
