Disgusting. Zayn deserves this kind of success. Not this queer-baiting trash.

Queer-baiting isn’t even a thing. It’s all made up. He’s allowed to do whatever the **** he wants and if you get offended, that’s on YOU. 

Not $4M+ for 20k capacity 

 

Concert tix are insanely high nowadays 

His demand is INSANE. KING!!

Queerbaiting is (unfortunately) a thing, dear Miley Cyrus stan.

I checked the tour's Wiki page, it started in 2021

 

And he launched the Harry's House era between the North American leg and European leg, and he even had time to film his movies.  Not a big fan of his work but I admire his work ethic and endurance, some other artists should take some notes (yes, I'm watching you ARIANA).

It really isn’t. You guys literally say someone is queer baiting for either;

 

- Posting shirtless or hot selfies. 
- Supporting LGBT 

- Not confirming to toxic masculinity

- Not wanting to label their sexuality 

 

Which last time I checked none of this is trying to “bait queers” it’s literally a male who doesn’t want to conform to society’s expectations of men which if you hadn’t noticed, is what ever male rock act was doing in the 70’s and 80’s and that’s the era Harry likes the most. 
 

And he’s clearly trying to bait straight females, he clearly isn’t interested in baiting queers  
 

I’m not even a Harry Styles fan but I’m so sick of you miserable people using “queerbaiter” to describe every male who feels comfortable in their sexuality while not complying to gender norms. 
 

Enough.

It took over 11 years to break the past record (Take That in 2011 did about $62 million from 8 dates at Wembley Stadium) 

 

Harry might hold onto the record for a long time if Taylor doesn't break it with her run at SoFi Stadium - or if Coldplay doesn't with their 10 date run in Argentina from a month ago.

Taylor most likely won't break it.

She didn't have dynamic pricing for her ticket sales like Harry did, so her average prices will be lower than his and she's playing to roughly the same amount of people.

She could easily beat him if she wanted to.

She'd need to add more dates for that to happen and it isn't looking like she will.

 

Harry played to 277k people at MSG. SoFi Stadium has a max. concert capacity of ~53k, so Taylor could play to 265k, but likely even less cause her stage is gigantic. Add the fact that Harry had dynamic pricing that boosted his ticket prices and with how things stand now, his record isn't likely to be broken.

I said "if she wanted to". She could add as many dates as she want and they would all sell out at any price.

Judging from the look of those dry concerts, i think there's a big profit margin on this tour as well. He barely has stage props, expensive lightning, dancers etc. the show is just him acting like a goofball waving around flags and singing off-key. well done Hairy 

 

I wonder how much eventually ends up in his pockets tbh. 

His tour gross is already at $300M with over a third of the shows left. 

 

 

well he works his ass off and doesn't cancel many of his shows so it's understandable.

I am SCREAMING at you both not knowing what queerbaiting means and literally confirming that he is doing so  

Queerbaiting does not mean "baiting queer people"  It is using queer aesthetics and purposefully marketing oneself as sexually ambiguous for profit, which is primarily done for a straight female audience who fetishize queer men  You JUST agreed that is who he is marketing himself to with his purposeful vagueness 

Seems like he's popular in South America

All those emojis and bold text to be dead wrong;

 

Queerbaiting is a marketing technique for fiction and entertainment in which creators hint at, but then do not depict, same-sex romance or other LGBTQ+ representation. The purpose is to attract a LGBTQ+ or straight ally audience with the suggestion or possibility of relationships or characters that appeal to them.

 

He’s literally not doing any of this. In no way is he hinting he has an interest in same sex. He just wishes not to be labelled like half the LGBTQ+ community doesn’t want to be either. 

 

He’s *never* once fed the idea of possibility of being interested in same sex and literally shut down the Larry stuff. He’s just a man who likes gender-bending clothing and aesthetics because he grew up loving 70’s rock stars who do the same - and it’s reflected in the type of music he loves to do. 
 

Queerbating to people like you now is not allowing men to be themselves and instead expecting them to behave under stereotypically masculine behaviours or it’s “queerbating” and the whole idea is literally reinventing the actual definition of the world. 

 

Which is “bating queers” to get them to follow either your work in hopes they will either be represented or form an attraction towards you by misleading people. 
 

If Harry was alluding to be in a same sex relationship in order to bring in LGBTQ+ audiences when he wasn’t, that would be queerbating. Him not following society based stereotypes and wearing nail polish or female clothes is NOT queerbating  There’s literally photos of the man doing so before he was famous, he literally went to a party dressed as a fairy for gods sake
