Harry Styles has racked up millions of fans over the years and it appears that legendary musician Jon Bon Jovi is one of them.
The rockstar, 61, has gushed over the singer following the success of his latest album, Harry's House, which included the hit single As It Was.
Bon Jovi, who rarely speaks in public nowadays praised the cheeky Cheshire chap for his award-winning career which has seen him venture into the acting industry.
Most recently, Harry appeared in the LGBTQ+ movie My Policeman alongside Emma Corrin and David Dawson, as well as appearing alongside Florence Pugh in the US-based film, Don't Worry Darling.
Speaking about Grammy Award-winning Harry, Bon Jovi gushed: "Harry Styles is the biggest star… His ability to be a deeper thinker than a pop boy singer.
"His sexuality, which is the whole androgyny thing.
"His ability to cross over into film, which is never easy for anyone who's a singer; It's not going to be an easy road for him but he's got a shot."
He went on to add: "I love what he's doing musically, he's challenging himself and then he comes up with a pop song that has a deeper meaning.
"You know, As It Was, it is not going to be the same as it was folks, I love that because he gave you a slap upside the head and said, 'I'm here with you but doing it on my terms.'
"So, all of those things to me make him one-of-one."
The comments come after Harry found himself nominated for an Ivor Novello Award for songwriting in three categories, including Songwriter of the Year, Best Song Musically and Lyrically and PRs for Music Most Performed Work.
Elsewhere on the Table for Two with Bruce Bozzi podcast, the New Jersey born legend reflected on his youth, admitting he would take to the stage to open for just two bands.
"There are two bands on the planet that I would open for, and the [Rolling] Stones are, you know what I mean," he explained, before adding: "It's like, I never miss a U2 show if they come to town, because I'm a groupie for Bono’s voice, and I never miss a Stones show because that is the band that I would open for any day.
"That and the other one being the E Street Band, because there are our Beatles in New Jersey. But I mean, humbly, I say that, humbly."
Table for Two with Bruce Bozzi is an iHeartPodcast presented by iHeartMedia and Air Mail.
