Harry Styles' Mom Puts Fans On Blast For Crying Foul Over His Short New Haircut: 'I Don't Get It'

Anne Twist, the mother of the popstar, took to Instagram to defend her son after fans complained about his new buzz cut.

Earlier this month, a photo of what appeared to be Harry Styles sporting a drastic new haircut at a U2 concert in Las Vegas quickly made its way across the interwebs.

For the most part, fans seemed to be stuck in the "denial" stage of the grieving process.


People online wasted no time expressing their disapproval of Styles parting ways with his signature locks, claiming they preferred his hair "As It Was."


Then came a more recent, not-at-all blurry photo shared on Instagram by Styles' gender-neutral beauty brand Pleasing, which the three-time Grammy winner launched in 2021.

The 29-year-old heartthrob definitely had a shorter 'do while attending a launch party in London for Pleasing's new fragrance line.

Photo-confirmed and made public on Instagram.


Cue the frenzy, along with more hurtful comments.

But one person who won't stand for all the criticism is the singer's own mother, and she made quite a valid point.

Anne Twist took to Instagram to address the backlash over her son's new buzz cut, noting Styles' "legacy of kindness and inclusion":

"When you consider that H has a legacy of kindness and inclusion, has always made every effort to make everyone feel seen and appreciated for exactly who they are … there’s an irony in the negativity he’s been shown for having a haircut."

She finished:

"Sorry but I don’t get it 🤷🏻♀️"


On the second slide, Twist included a humorous "let's uncrap that" rewrite of a what looked like a New York Post headline:

"Harry Styles fans shocked over shaved head reveal: ‘Ruined my entire life’"

To which Twist added:

"Breaking news: It's hair! It's his!"
"Also it will grow back. If he wants."

Fans agreed with Twist, applauding her for calling out the unnecessary backlash.











Mama really does know best. Treat people with kindness!

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
