********HAPPY 28th BIRTHDAY ZAYN!!**********

The man of the hour is (surprise surprise) laying low, but he took time to tweet: “Thanks to everyone sending birthday messages and wishes today! Having a great day! big love! X.” The paps brought us pics of Gigi and the zaby out for a walk in NYC (as has been the case nearly every day lately) and of vintage arcade games and a lot of balloons being delivered to their apartment. Lots of best wishes being posted, but the top prize goes to MUA Joanna Simkin for her fabulous Zayn pic caption- “You’re looking kinda aight in these pics!/ I’m looking like a ting?/ Like a ting for sure!/ Happy birthday, Z. Here’s to always looking like a ting.” Almost as good as getting to hear him talk... Oh and Yolanda posted a pic in which you could see a wee framed pic in the background that showed the zaby's face (which they have been carefully keeping private.) She deleted and most fans are not sharing out of respect for their wishes but for the record I saw it and it looks like, uh, a baby. I mean honestly it's a tiny pic of a pic of, again: a baby. There's sincerely nothing to deduce there, so hopefully they're not too stressed about it.

Lots of interviews about Harry's new video and music (rather than his fake love life) all at once today! Nice, and also … hmmm! Interesting. Ben Turner says the camera is a harrie; “the camera doesn't just love him, the camera wants to marry him and run off with him and probably never come back,” and “I'm quite a lot older than him. I'm not as cool as him.” Jeff Azoff says “He’s such a good person that you’re immediately disarmed around him, no matter who you are. You get a sense of comfort and respect right away. He's got a calming effect on anybody he’s around,” and that “a big part of my mission going forward is to be fiercely protective over songwriters and intellectual property, specifically” which kind of feels like a first glimmer of something we're going to be hearing a lot about so, noted. Paul Roberts, the 1D choreographer who did the TPWK video, is in Billboard talking about whether or not Harry will take Broadway by storm next with his dancing. “It won’t necessarily be out-and-out dancing,” LMAO but he softens the blow-- “I guess it’s a bit like Bowie used to do, isn’t it? It’s the showmanship and presentation of the performance.” But, he adds, “who knows? He’s just so open-minded and open-hearted — and because he’s so open it allows the universe to come back at him and he’s able to do anything he sets his mind to.” He says that they brought in a ballet teacher to work with Harry and Pheobe, love that, ballerina Harry dreams coming true! Also the intriguing tidbit “we had a conversation back at the end of the summer about how much we enjoyed the process, and I know he was doing another project where choreography was involved.” Ooh? DWD or something else? Time will tell. As he said, “I think with Harry Styles, anything is possible, is it not?”

Fake relationship news meanwhile is focused on Olivia wearing Harry's necklace which is news from last week so it's weird that suddenly there are 3 articles about it, verrrry organic, but mostly it's... kind of taking a turn? Today's articles give you one that concludes that Harry did NOT break up Oliva and Jason AND says that speculation about her moving in with him has been “debunked”, and the die hards are so starved of material they've resorted to running their astrological charts-- but maybe not to quite the effect they'd hoped! “It’s not necessarily going to be about a romantic connection” says the astrologer brought in by PageSix, but “they could end up collaborating on a successful work project.” UNCANNY! The astrologer (who clearly knows their stuff!) also says that we can look for Olivia and Jason to get back together “as early as May or June.” * furiously jotting down notes * mhmm mhmm tell me more..
