Grammy and Brit Award-winning singer Harry Styles sent fans into a frenzy as he namechecked his fellow One Direction band members on stage at the 2023 Brit Awards ceremony.
The As It Was singer was picking up his second gong of the night, Artist of the Year, and thanked his mother for signing him up to The X Factor and went on to thank his One Direction bandmates, too.

Taking to the stage, he said: “I want to thank my family for being the most supportive, understanding, patient, loving family I could have ever asked for. I want to thank my mum for signing me up for The X Factor without telling me, so I literally wouldn’t be here without you. I want to thank Nile, Louis, Liam and Zayn because I wouldn’t be here without you either. Thank you so much.”
Harry Styles, who is coming to Cardiff on his Love on Tour this spring, won the award for best pop/R&B act, which is voted for by the public via TikTok, continuing his success at the Grammys last week where he scooped album of the year.
After punching the air and taking to the stage, he thanked his fans before adding: “I have so many wonderful memories at the Brits so thank you for another one. It is so good to be home.”
Fans were over the moon at his shout out to the One Direction boys, with one writing: "Harry Styles just thanks Niall, Louis, Liam and Zayn - I'm shaking.
Another said: "he thanked the boys," with a load of crying emojis after it. This fan wrote: "Harry Styles thanking his mom and the members of one direction in his speech? No one touch me. I'm emotional."
