Harry Styles has once again shown his support for the LGBTQ community.
During his Philadelphia concert on Friday night, the former One Direction star delighted fans when he held up a rainbow Pride flag that read “Make America Gay Again”.
The singer/songwriter has always been a visible ally to the LGBT+ community, sporting both Pride and trans flags during his performances.
Back in April, Harry went viral after he managed to turn his 12,000-strong audience at London’s O2 Arena in a huge, shimmering Pride flag, as the colours of the rainbow twinkled across the venue.
The colours were distributed throughout the audience so that when they were urged by the star to light up their phones, it created a rainbow.
“Can I just take a second to tell you that every single one of you in this building looks absolutely fabulous!” Harry told the crowd as he opened the show.

“I’ve lived in London for about seven years now and I very much feel like I’m coming home now, thank you for being so welcoming to us.”
Last year in Sweden, Harry also used his influence to inspire inclusivity as he told the crowd: “If you are black, if you are white, if you are gay, if you are straight, if you are transgender – whoever you are, whoever you want to be, I support you.”
The star’s first headline arena tour of the UK is in support of his self-titled debut album, which reached No.1 in the UK last year.
On the tour, Harry has been performing his new track Medicine, which has been hailed by fans as a “bisexual anthem” because of its lyrical content.
“Here to take my medicine, take my medicine, treat you like a gentleman,” he sings on the track.
He also references “messing around” with both sexes, adding: “The boys and girls are here, I’m messing around with them, and I’m okay with it.”
