The former One Direction star Harry Styles is arguably one of the most popular artists at the moment. His fans simply love him. His new song 'Kiwi' from his self titled debut solo album has been a big hit among them. Maybe too big even because the songs funny title has led to an abundance of 'pranks' at some of his live shows. It's gotten so bad it's actually become an issue for the recording artist.
Harry Styles was pelted with kiwis while performing his song Kiwi in London earlier this week. Fans who were at the concert managed to capture footage of Styles slipping on the fruit in the middle of his performance. At least he's got moves.
Following his performance, Styles addressed the fruit barrage. It's crazy he actually had to make a statement on it...
fans are so desperate for harry styles to perform “kiwi” multiple times at his shows they’ve taken to throwing the literal fruit at him pic.twitter.com/2roXnWM1d7
The prank has led one grocery store in Manchester to temporarily ban the sale of kiwis to anyone under the age of 25 ahead of Style's concert there. Kind of crazy they'd have to do that but it seems they really had no choice. Some people just take things way too far.
Fans weren't very happy about the stunt either calling out how dangerous it could be. Performing on stage isn't easy and one misstep could lead to huge injuries. We've seen it happen with many performers and artists in the past who have stumble causing them to have to cancel or postpone an event.
Fans, please don't throw kiwis, he could slip and get hurt.
What do you think of all this? Many former One Direction fans will not be happy with seeing their favorite lead man getting pelted by fruit but we're sure they'll get over it. Hopefully Harry took the thing in stride.
