Twitter user @CynCity4 claimed that she 'gracefully melted' into her seat after the musician gave her a fist bump on James Corden's final show.

Harry Styles has enough star power to make fans go weak in the knees.

Literally.


His apparently dazzling effect on people was witnessed on the final episode of The Late Late Show with James Corden on April 27–when the Grammy-winning pop singer was a guest.

When Styles was introduced on the show, he was met by an enthusiastic fan on his right immediately after emerging from the curtain reveal at the top of the audience stands.

He greeted the fan with his irresistible smile and fist bump before making his way down through the cheering audience toward the studio stage.

But right after moving on from the fan, she appeared to faint.

Clips showing the exact moment went viral.

It looked like the fan recovered pretty quickly as she was seen seconds later cheering on comedic actor Will Ferrell, who was the next guest introduced on the show.

Twitter users found "the girl" was relatable.






After all the hubbub about Styles' knee-buckling effect on fans that caused the woman to seemingly faint, Cyndi H.–a Twitter user claiming to be her–set the record straight about what actually happened.

She wrote in the thread of Pop Crave's tweet:

"THIS WAS ME AND I DID NOT FAINT."
"I simply gracefully melted into my seat after the man locked eyes w me."



Cyndi followed up with another tweet, writing:

“ppl thinking I was paid or a James corden writer …literally I f'king wISH IT WAS JUST MY INITIAL REACTION.”

She also said that she and Styles "locked eyes and I was SAT."

People expressed support after her physical reaction on TV was sensationalized online.




James Corden served as host of the Late Late Show for nine seasons since taking over on March 23, 2015.

He followed previous hosts, Tom Snyder–who was the variety program's first host in 1995–Craig Kilborn, and Craig Ferguson.

Once Styles took a seat with Ferrell beside him, Corden commented on how there were no other recurring guests he would rather close out his run of the show with than those two.

To which Styles responded:

"Can I just say that as a friend, I'm so incredibly proud of you for everything you've done."
"I know I remember when you decided to take doing the show and watching you do it has been incredibly inspiring to me."

The fellow Brit added that on a personal note, Corden has always been a "safe space" for the singer as a friend.

"I'm selfishly excited that you're coming home. But I'm so happy for you and I'm really really proud of you and I love you."

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.
