Why did Harry Styles's fans call him ‘frat boy Harry’? Internet says he's aging backward: 'You went back in time'

The reason why people are labeling the ‘Watermelon Sugar’ hitmaker as #FratBoyHarry is because they think the award-winning singer is aging backward

British singer and heartthrob Harry Styles was most recently papped in the public eye looking all comfortable and cool in a hoodie and a snapback along with a mask and the Internet just lost its calm. The 26-years-old singer-songwriter, who enjoys a massive fan following across the globe, was suddenly trending on Twitter with the hashtag #FratBoyHarry.

The reason why people are labeling the ‘Watermelon Sugar’ hitmaker as #FratBoyHarry is because they think the award-winning singer is aging backward. And, we must tell you that this is not the first time this hashtag has been used to label the former One Direction singer. The same hashtag also trended in 2013 as well.

Sharing the excitement on the micro-blogging site, one of the fans said, “2013 frat boy harry styles is making a comeback i— i found that era most attractive brb ripping my eyeballs out” One fan tweeted, “He looks like frat boy harry, does this mean we are one step closer to prince harry” One individual shared a collage where we can see Harry Styles with a mustache and in the other pic without it and captioned it, “Grandpa harry to frat boy harry but 26years old version.”

Another user added, “WAIT WHAT ??? FRAT BOY HARRY IS BACK AND ABSOLUTELY NO ONE DECIDED TO TELL ME? IM PASSING OUT OH MY GOD IM CRYING” One fan asserted, “Stop you literally went back in time and got to meet frat boy Harry IN FREAKING 2020” One social media user stated, “You know when I first looked at it I'm like nice picture of frat boy harry. And then I realized it's 2020 harry..”

Styles has changed his fashion sense over the years but it is hair that always takes the cake. The singer has been spotted with a lot of different haircuts since he got popular. Fans have loved him the most in haircuts like when he went for a blunt haircut in November 2019 or when he opted for Devacurl in March 2019 when he was releasing solo music more than ever and fans loved him even when he risked it all and went for longer hair in November 2015. Styles’ bouncy and glorious hair has always managed to make his female fans drool over him all these years and looks like the love is never going to fade.

In the last few years, soft masculinity has become popular, thanks to platforms like Tik-Tok and Instagram where we can see a lot of people getting influenced by the fashion sense very similar to that of BTS and Harry Styles. A lot of boys don’t shy away from painting their nails, dyeing their hair, getting their ears pierced and some have even pulled-off women’s make-up effortlessly.

On the work front, fans are also showering their support for the singer to win Best International Artist at the 2020 ARIA Awards where he has been nominated in the Best International Artist category. Artists Lime Cordiale and Tame Impala lead the nominations with eight and seven nods respectively.
