Harry Styles’ Mom Hates Those Kendall Jenner, Taylor Swift, Louis Tomlinson Articles As Well


Harry Styles is super-famous not just for his work in One Direction and his new role in Christopher Nolan’s Dunkirk, but for his high-profile relationships.

Styles has dated everyone from Grammy award-winning singer-songwriter Taylor Swift to New Zealand model Georgia Fowler to DJ Lucy Horobin to Keeping Up With The Kardashians regular Kendall Jenner. Styles has even been linked by conspiracy-minded Directioners to his band mate Louis Tomlinson — many fans believe that the cute babes are in a secret relationship covered up by homophobic music bosses and PR gurus.

Many fans have latched firmly onto the idea that Louis and Harry are secretly together, and examining Louis Tomlinson and Danielle Campbell’s behavior for evidence that they are not that into one another has become an international pastime. A quick browse down a 1D-focused timeline will often tell you more about the relationship obsessions, or “ships,” of fans than it will about Harry and Louis’ art, work, music and business ventures.

While Harry Styles’ mother Anne Twist’ stance on Larry is not known, she has taken to Twitter today to make one thing clear: Anne is sick of seeing articles about Harry’s relationships and hair and she wants to see more talk about his work.

The former Mrs Styles — who is divorced from Harry’s dad and has remarried — re-tweeted a fan comment that it is thrilling to see a timeline focused on Harry’s work and character, not on his clothes, hair and relationships.

“Today wins.”

Harry’s mom also shared a Mirror article discussing the trials Harry went through to secure his role in Dunkirk, and the massive creative tasks facing Harry in his first acting role.

“Harry really had to overcome hurdles to get past that. He fought hard for it and his work was impressive and that’s what attracted us to him…”

Insiders stress that filming for Dunkirk will be no easy feat. Expect to see actor Harry on screen pushing his muscled physique to its limits as he wades through mud and battles Nazis on the beaches of France.

“There will be a fair amount of wading through mud. But the Battle of Dunkirk was a monumental task and a lot of it was on the beach, so the beach is prominent in the film. We’re filming until end September so its a long, hard shoot and a big task.”

Dunkirk casting director John Papsidera stressed that Styles won his role in the film, where he will play alongside seasoned actors like Kenneth Branagh, strictly on his acting merits.

The Dunkirk casting officer said that they wanted fresh faces.

“Our aim was to have people who are fresh and don’t bring a lot of prior work with them, so the audience will be really immersed in the film and not struggling with recognizable famous personalities.”

Papsidera adds that Harry Styles’ pop star status actually worked against him, not for him.

The directors were aware that casting a teen pin-up in a serious film would raise eyebrows and get film insiders whispering in a negative spirit. However, Styles impressed so much in readings that they hired him anyway!

“It wasn’t because he’s a well known pop star – if anything that was more of a detriment, because it could bring the wrong message and we don’t want people pulled out of the film because of who they are.”

The Dunkirk insider called Harry’s approach “fresh and interesting.”

“Harry was absolutely right for the role. As an actor he is unknown, but his readings made him an obvious choice. We thought he was fresh and interesting and he won the role…It was because of his passion for being in the film, he jumped through every hurdle we put him through and really won it of his own accord.”

Flickering Myth has just published a report denying that the Dunkirk directors have cast Harry Styles because of the massive publicity it will guarantee for the film, rather than because of Styles’ talent.

The report argues that Christopher Nolan is a director of such stature that he is one of the few who would actually not be under any pressure from studios to sell tickets using cheap tricks and gimmicks.

“It’s highly unlikely that a director with Nolan’s clout would have been pressured by the studio to cast Styles due to his fan base…”

Is Harry Styles’ mom Anne Twist right that there should be more focus on Harry’s talent?
