Harry Styles gets cheeky.
The “Golden” singer opened the 2021 Grammys on Sunday evening with a performance of “Watermelon Sugar” dressed in a tailored Gucci leather suit and a green feather boa.
However, when the superstar tore off his furry accessory, he unveiled a second neck accessory: a Gucci banana necklace with a phallic symbol, which he paired with his ever-present cross necklace.
The necklace, which is currently out of print and costs $ 450, is being touted as sending “a message about leaving the old rules of fashion behind” and “portraying this unbridled freedom of expression” on the brand’s website.
After exposing his lavish chest tattoos and NSFW necklace onstage, Styles wore a sweater vest, plaid blazer and purple boa on the Grammy red carpet.
Styles has been nominated for three awards: Best Music Video for ‘Adore You’, Best Solo Pop Performance for ‘Watermelon Sugar’ and Best Pop Vocal Album for ‘Fine Line’.
Perhaps the switch from pearls to evocative fruit symbolizes a switch in Styles’ upcoming musical pursuits.
