  POSE Star Billy Porter apologises

 to Harry Styles: 

“I didn’t mean no harm”


Editor Katie Watkin's  - 10-11-2021

POSE- star Billy Porter has apologised to pop icon Harry Styles for criticising his Vogue cover shoot in which the former One Direction singer wore a dress.

Harry Styles made history in December 2020 as US Vogue’s first-ever male solo cover star where he was pictured wearing a Gucci dress and skirt.

Billy Porter later expressed his objection to the fashion magazine’s decision to feature Styles, telling The Times: “I created the conversation [about non-binary fashion] and yet Vogue still put Harry Styles, a straight white man, in a dress on their cover for the first time.

“I’m not dragging Harry Styles, but he is the one you’re going to try and use to represent this new conversation? He doesn’t care, he’s just doing it because it’s the thing to do.”

The American singer and actor, who has gained a lot of attention over the years for his statement fashion choices, added: “This is politics for me. This is my life. I had to fight my entire life to get to the place where I could wear a dress to the Oscars and not be gunned now. All he has to do is be white and straight.”

Bananarama are known for their Iconic-hits like  Venus, Robert De Niro’s Waiting and Love in the First Degree, to name a few.   But the all three women were “difficult” to work with, according to their former producer, Peter Waterman, who described the artists as “punks”.   Waterman told The Sun: “I fought with them about everything. They saw themselves as punks who were not prepared to be manipulated by any man.   “If I dared to argue or if I didn’t see things the way they did, they ...
