#louis and harry in jamaica

[zot3-flopped]

The other anon sending in what h said about wms was really interesting, thank you. I forgot about it. I love how harry goes with something that feels right to him rather than analyzing a song which usually makes it gp stale. Hsh and fine line to me never go stale and just get better with age and i can‘t say the same with all of mm made tracks. I respect mm but what i love about harry is just the clear passion, the time to lend an ear to a song rather than overthinking it, the gut feeling…i think i can go on about how i like his approach to songwriting over a lot of others

Harry really immerses himself in the songwriting process in a way few others do these days. For all three albums, he booked his team into a residential recording studio for several weeks. They lived and breathed the record. That kind of commitment is alien to lesser artists like Louis Tomlinson, who pops into the studio for an hour a day to boss the professionals around before running off to the pub.

For those of us that are new can you explain the significance of Louis wearing a Jamaican jersey? I’ve seen it has larrry connections but I don’t know what it means

Hi Love!

In 2016/2017, there were several receipts that made it obvious that Harry and Louis were in Jamaica together- and I believe there's been some since as well! It's clearly a place that holds significance for the two of them as well. September/October 2016, H & L were both in Jamaica, and this is when most of the songs for HS1 were written.

Then again in Feb/March 2017, they were back in Jamaica, and Louis has implied that he wrote Always You not long after that. (https://skepticalarrie.tumblr.com/post/642627856259776512/always-you-timeline)

I know I talk a lot about writing for a person who hasn't written anything in years ecc ecc but I opened my fic ideas list and there are 30 of them?? 30 fics??? A couple of them are very fuzzy because I haven't thought about them in years, some others I'm sure I'll never write because they're not about things I'm interested anymore, some others I've completely forgot what they were about but......... 30 plot lines....... 30 fics...... Werk

[twopoppies]

Hi, hope your doing well! Can you share your favorite and most credible receipt you’ve ever seen/gotten? I just accidentally dug myself down a fake Larry receipt rabbit hole from stylesforstiles and now I’m sad most of it isn’t true :(

Oh, yeah. That person really turned out to be pretty shitty. I’m sorry, darling.

I don’t have any sort of masterpost of that kind of thing, but I think most of the really credible receipts came from the early days when the boys were more reckless and the impact of social media was a lot understood in terms of how it affected celebrities.

Saying that, some of the more recent receipts I’ve felt rang more true than others are ones like Gabi’s New Zealand anon, my Copenhagen anon, the always wonderful Jamaica receipt, not exactly a receipt, but Harry thanking Lorna for her Oops and Hi Forever sign in 2015, this domestic Larry receipt from 2017, and then all of these moments where people close to Harry and Louis outed them.

Those are just a few that come to mind off the top of my head.

My receipts and moments are all tagged by year (ie: 2017 LARRY RECEIPTS or 2023 LARRY MOMENTS etc). You can scroll through some of those and see which resonate for you.

With friends like these: The Academy Museum Gala 2024 by u/Mickleborough

With friends like these: The Academy Museum Gala 2024 The Academy Museum Gala‘s the gala you never heard of. At least, I haven’t, but then I lead a sheltered life.The 4th gala was on 19 Oct 2024.The gala is an annual fundraiser to raise money for the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures‘ exhihits, education, and public programming. Yes, it’s the Oscars people. So far, so Hollywood.(It’s also the gala where Meghan’s low neckline-high slit gown would look like a Victorian governess’s nightdress, but that’s another story: see photos in eg Daily Mail archived / unarchived).However, this isn’t a post about galas to which Meghan hasn’t been invited.Rather, it’s more: WHY hasn’t she been invited?The Host Committee isn’t headed by a dictator like Nuclear Wintour, who’ll let a Kardashian into the Met Gala but not a Meghantheduchessofsussex.Instead, the Host Committee seems to comprise about a hundred persons and companies: 2024 Gala Host CommitteeAnd of these 100 persons, a few stand out:Gabrielle Union.https://ift.tt/fQ8q6Kx shame, Gabrielle. I liked you in Bring It On.)WMEThey’re Meghan’s agents, for Chrissakes! Can the rumours - that they no longer represent her - be true?Ted Sarandos, Netflix.Not only is Sarandos well-regarded by Meghan’s (alleged) agent, Ari Emanuel, he also seems to have met the mighty Muggin: The Times, 14 September 2024 archivedhttps://preview.redd.it/osmip3lew5wd1.png?width=967&format=png&auto=webp&s=ec7cd6ba4f4a297e71b02720eab470a808db8e84(Although, in the absence of clarification, this could be snark.)Brian Robbins, ParamountIf he’d invite Meghan to fly to Jamaica on a private jet (allegedly) for a premiere, it wouldn’t be much to invite her to a local gala, no?https://ift.tt/B4Ygqvm are also other, more tenuous, connections:* Apple Original Films - Harry did ‘The Me You Can’t See’ for Apple.* Louis Vuitton - who designed Meghan‘s gown for the Ripple of Hope Awards in 2022. If they thought they could get good PR, they’d do it again in a flash.* JPMorganChase - at whose event in Miami Harry (and maybe Meghan) spoke in 2020 (apparently it was all about Harry’s mother, which wasn’t exactly what JPMC had paid for).* The Walt Disney Company - for whom Meghan cooed, I mean narrated, a documentary in 2020 (after Harry got her the gig in a very blatant, public manner) about elephants.* Orlando Bloom - supposedly good friends. Pics, or it never happened.So notionally Meghan has at least 4 ins to get into the Academy Museum Gala, but seemingly no cigar. We’ve all heard that Hollywood‘s kept Sussexes at a distance. Does that include their friends?EDIT: To add the date of the last gala, 19 Oct 2024. post link: https://ift.tt/G8NT1IS author: Mickleborough submitted: October 21, 2024 at 10:14PM via SaintMeghanMarkle on Reddit disclaimer: all views + opinions expressed by the author of this post, as well as any comments and reblogs, are solely the author's own; they do not necessarily reflect the views of the administrator of this Tumblr blog.

Jamaica by swallowsmateforlife

Harry and Louis vacation in Jamaica for some much-needed alone time off but come home with the most special surprise of all.

[lboogie1906]

Carmen Mercedes McRae (April 8, 1922 – November 10, 1994) was a jazz singer. She is considered one of the most influential jazz vocalists of the 20th century and is remembered for her behind-the-beat phrasing and ironic interpretation of lyrics.

She was born in Harlem. Her father, Osmond, and mother, Evadne (Gayle) McRae, were immigrants from Jamaica. She began studying piano when she was eight, and the music of jazz greats such as Louis Armstrong and Duke Ellington filled her home. When she was 17 years old, she met singer Billie Holiday. As a teenager, she came to the attention of Teddy Wilson and his wife, the composer Irene Kitchings. One of her early songs, “Dream of Life”, was, through their influence, recorded in 1939 by Wilson’s long-time collaborator Billie Holiday. She considered Holiday to be her primary influence.

She played piano at an NYC club called Minton’s Playhouse, Harlem’s most famous jazz club, sang as a chorus girl, and worked as a secretary. It was at Minton’s where she met trumpeter Dizzy Gillespie, bassist Oscar Pettiford, and drummer Kenny Clarke, had her first important job as a pianist with Benny Carter’s big band (1944), worked with Count Basie (1944) and under the name “Carmen Clarke” made her first recording as a pianist with the Mercer Ellington Band (1946–47). But it was while working in Brooklyn that she came to the attention of Decca’s Milt Gabler. Her five-year association with Decca yielded 12 LPs.

She sang in jazz clubs across the world—for more than fifty years. She was a popular performer at the Monterey Jazz Festival, performing with Duke Ellington’s orchestra at the North Sea Jazz Festival, singing “Don’t Get Around Much Anymore”, and at the Montreux Jazz Festival. She left New York for Southern California in the late 1960s, but appeared in New York regularly, usually at the Blue Note, where she performed two engagements a year through most of the 1980s. She collaborated with Harry Connick Jr. on the song “Please Don’t Talk About Me When I’m Gone”. #africanhistory365 #africanexcellence

Seven Chapters

Summary: Elena Whitman, a bright young woman. Harry Styles, a bright young man. They cross paths but where do they end up? Rivalry? Friendship? What does the future hold?

Word count: 2.1k+

Prologue

It had been a sunny, long, bright day where Elena was sat in her business management classes taking notes of things she didn't even understand.

For starters, she didn't even like anything about the economy and budget and balance sheets. If anything she found it terrible and boring. She lazily looked at Louis who was busy scribbling down notes that she was sure she will be borrowing in the latter half of the day.

She didn't even know why she was doing this.

She just had to carry on the company that her great grandfather had established.

The Whitman Enterprises.

As posh as it sounds, the success and the money never really attracted Elena. But, as much as she hated to admit it, her younger brother had no interest in it either and had admitted it to their parents already and so he was somewhere out of the country pursuing medical studies or something like that. So, somehow all the responsibility fell on her shoulders. It wasn't difficult to approve of his choice because they had another, older and mature kid to dump their hierarchy to.

But, nobody really know about her interests. Her parents hadn't wanted to leak weaknesses to the rivals, and that's the only thing that she had learnt from her parents.

If you show yourself, raw and pure, the world is going to take benefits of you.

"You are going to fall back if you don't keep up, you know", Louis spoke from her side and she looked at him. He was like an ally. He wasn't always looking for ways to bring her down. While most of the girls in the class actually didn't fantasize the idea of her reaching the heights, Louis often stood beside her. He would often express how he was happy for her, but she assumed it was because he was taking pity on her and didn't want her to feel bad.

"I can only rely on your notes after class", she said rolling her eyes.

He shook his head in nothing but amusement. "I am still wondering how you manage to get an A+ every time", he smiled as he said so.

"Because I study and prepare a month before the exams actually start", she said as she shrugged her shoulders.

"Right", he rolled his eyes as he remembered all the times she would call him in stress and frustration and he would have to teach her everything and provide her with the flashcards and pop quizzes to help her understand and remember each word and vomit it out on the paper. She managed to get an A+ all the time. Her parents were pleased.

More like, her father was pleased.

Her mom and dad had divorced when she was still thirteen, waiting for her birthday gift. Instead of a surprise party and wishes from family and friends, she was welcomed with her parents fighting and finally divorcing each other. Her mother took custody of Niall, her younger brother and she was left with her dad. A part of her was angry why her mom had chosen Niall over her; but she felt guilty for thinking about abandoning dad. Two or three years later, her dad was engaged to another lady with a son, Liam. Liam was still around her age, and around meant he was two years older to her.

She wasn't even asked about it. And she didn't even know about it until it was on tabloids and news. She had found out about it in not an so private manner and she wasn't able to contact her father about it for he was out in Jamaica looking out for the new project.

Somehow, she had managed to keep it all to herself, not really talking about it to anyone else. Liam was a sweet brother. He had managed to make out her favorite color and food somehow, and treated her to it. When she had her first breakup at the age of 17, he had helped her overcome it, staying by her side, helping her to tubs of chocolate ice cream and watching Netflix. He had even gone to the extents of hugging her and whispering in her ears that she was enough and if anyone didn't have the eyes for it, they were blind. He even proposed that he could go around and beat her ex's ass with a few of his friends who were always looking for action to which she had obviously nodded in a 'no' while she giggled. He had taken care of her delicately.

Liam was now out in New York, studying cinematography, something he had admitted to be interested in since he was a kid.

That left her. If she hadn't been so indecisive and just had thought about what she wanted to do, she would probably be able to free herself from this hell.

But then again, what could even heaven possibly bring for her?

"You okay? You look out of it", Louis asked noticing the nine o'clock on her face.

"Yeah. I am fine", she said back, not looking back at him, but looking straight ahead at the bald man who discussed strategies.

"You know you always say fine when you aren't", he said, typing the words of the professor on his laptop.

"If I don't say you what's wrong would you know anyways?", she asked back still not looking at him but drawing circles on the top of the notebook.

He sighed out in disappointment. He had known for a fact that Elena always struggled with talking out how she felt at a certain instant; she struggled with naming the feels and chills; she struggled with talking about her life; and she most certainly didn't know how to recognize her pain.

In short, she was an expert in invalidating her emotions and numbing what she felt.

He knew she assumed that she could do just fine if she was alone, but without a support system she would crumble apart. And probably that's why he decided to support her; stay beside her.

She was already struggling with gripping what wasn't for her.

"I would appreciate it if you talked to me instead of bringing yourself down in your head though", he said quietly but she heard it.

Something tugged in her heart and she had goosebumps all over. She wasn't bringing herself down. She was just wondering what could have happened if she had been the first one to talk to her father about her interests. She shook her head in order to get those thoughts out of her head. She couldn't act selfish and think of putting Niall or Liam through it all when they clearly didn't want to.

She was stuck.

"I am not bringing myself down. I was just wondering...things", she said, not really giving out what she was thinking about. She didn't want pity or sympathy from people who were close to her, like Louis.

"Sure", he rolled his eyes as he slumped back on his seat, tugging his shirt down a bit and stretching his arms out.

"Its nothing bothering", she said again, this time to convince herself as well as the man beside her.

"Uh-huh", he said, still looking straight at the bald professor, tapping his fingers on the bottom of his laptop.

"I was just wondering if things would have been different if I beat Niall and Liam to it and talked to my dad of my interests", she sighed giving up just because she didn't want Louis to give her the silent treatment.

"What are your interests then?", he asked, still calm.

She met Louis on the first day when she was lost in the building, and they kind of clung together since then. "Nothing special", she said shrugging her shoulders.

"You like it, of course it is special", he said back in a low, disappointed voice.

"Its nothing really. You asked what I was thinking about, I said that", she sighed throwing her head back.

"So, you just don't like business?", he asked her, looking at her now.

She didn't say anything but stared ahead, sighing out.

She was afraid if he would use it against her somehow, although she knew it wouldn't happen. She sighed out again. "You can say that", she said folding her hands behind her head.

After a few minutes, as the bell rang, both of them stood up, pushed the chair back forcefully, and walked out the back gate hurriedly. "You have done Rockerfeller's assignment, right?", he asked her as both of them hurried down the hall to the next class. "Yep, you reminded me two weeks ago", she said.

The thing was, she had great memory power, that came out only when applied to things that she liked. And probably she liked statistics more than any other subject she was taking up.

"At least you did one thing right", he rolled his eyes running up in front of her, walking ahead of her when her eyes looked down on the floor.

"It's not just that; I am doing so many things right", she said, looking down yet, but mostly to herself.

"You said anything?", he asked looking back at her.

"Probably", she shrugged her shoulders as she looked forward and walked in front of him, pushing him in the process.

And in haste, her head met the brick hard body of a man which resulted her in a crash down the floor. She managed to rub her head as she looked up at the person who was already busy collecting up the papers fallen down.

"I am sorry", she muttered.

"As you should be", he scoffed and she looked at the mess of curly mop of hair. Couldn't he say that he was sorry too? Doesn't he know basic civil behavior? Louis came to sit beside her and helped her with her bag.

"Excuse me? What is with that attitude?", she asked, looking at him.

"You weren't looking. You crashed into me. You made all the papers I was holding fall down. So, I don't think I should be the one to say sorry", he said and she could admit that it was her fault but she didn't need an assurance. He could have just said that it was okay?

She was seething with anger when Louis held her bag and hand and pulled her aside.

"Louis, what the fuck are you doing? Why did you pull me away?", she asked, astounded to what her friend had just done.

"Saving you from trouble. That man, right there, is Harry Styles; heir to Styles Corporations; the sole rival to the company you are going to inherit. You don't want him to have a gist of who you are, do you?", he asked. And she didn't have the heart to say that Louis was wrong. She wasn't afraid of the young man. Not a bit; but the fact was, she knew she had to protect herself from people who hated her; and considering the age old rivalry of Whitman Enterprises and Styles Corporations, he is going to hate her even before he got to know her, because of the positions they were bound to; and he had an awful aura to him along with the awful attitude.

"Thanks", she muttered lowly as she walked away with him to which he just gave a small smile to her. "Well, the rivalry between Styles Corporations and Whitman Enterprises is age old and well known. Didn't you know that man right there?", he asked, with curiosity. She shrugged her shoulders in oblivion. "Not really cared to research people who weren't of any use to me", she said.

Louis chuckled from his side as both of them walked in the class, all the way to the back of the class amidst other people in the same field.

Harry Styles.

She wouldn't forget the name; not that she had a choice. Within the next eight months, Whitman Enterprises would welcome her as the new CEO, and then she will be in rush. She was nervous from now only. She knew she would have to kiss her days of freedom and normality goodbye when she was to take up responsibility. It made her stand on her toes. And although it was making her feel sick in the stomach, she was keeping up.

In eight months, she would be introduced to a whole new world of rush, sleeplessness and tiredness. She wouldn't be free to go out to meet friends like Louis; but to meet business friends and partners. She wouldn't be ignoring people who wanted her out of their way; but she would be rivaling against other companies to be constantly on top.

She is going to be exhausted; but probably, she chose the life of exhaustion over the life of peace.

Anyways, Harry Styles, would have to pay though.

So guys, this one had been sitting in my draft for so long now, so I thought why not give it a shot on tumblr? Anyways, please show some love to this one. I love y'all.

[skepticalarrie]

Hi Allie, as a new Larrie, thank you for all of your resources! I'm making a chronological order playlist of songs written about their relationship (songs by either H, L, or both). I found your timeline for HH and it was helpful. Do you know if songwriting timelines for HS1, FL, Walls or even 1D songs already exists somewhere? Or have info about when "Larry" songs were written?

Hi, dear. Wow this is going to be hard, I’m going to link you the songs I can remember we have information about, but I really don’t know about the others, you’re really going to have to dig deeper. Figuring out where and who they wrote the songs with can help you, so IMO you should look for the co-writers and the studios they recorded to try to track it down from there. 1D songs are easier because they had limited time to write most of the songs since they had a crazy schedule with one album per year.

Midnight Memories = were written mid-2013

Four = early/mid-2014

MITAM = between April and June 2015 (here's more info about Home and IICF)

HS1 = Harry was filming Dunkirk between May- June 2016, he cut his hair in early May and we know he wrote these songs before that:

After Dunkirk, Harry and Louis completely disappeared in Jamaica between September and October 2016, I believe most songs of HS1 were written in this period, except for Two Ghosts, here's a post with this discussion.

Walls = They were back in Jamaica apparently between Feb and March 2017 as well, and Louis implied he wrote Always You not long after that (here's a post), he wrote WMI around Autumn 2017. And Walls and KMM were the last two songs written for the album so probably somewhere in 2019, you really going to have to dig here because there's this gap between 2017-2019 when Louis wrote a lot of songs.

Fine Line = There's a timeline for Fine Line here.

FITF = No timelines as well, but apparently he didn't start writing until after he left Syco in July 2020 (he mentions being excited to start writing again). He has a lot of pictures in the studio between May and June 2021, he was in Mexico in April 2021, so this seems to be his most productive months on writing FITF. He wrote WAOYF during Autumn 2021, and BTM early in the process. He tells where and who he wrote most songs during the listening party, so I’m sure these tweets will be able to help.

Here's the blog post that the Jamaica "proof" originated from, some obscure gossip blog run by a larrie. How convenient that a random anon commenter just happened to be on vacation at the same spot as Harry and found this blog to share their story on 🙄🙄 larries aren't very smart and don't know how to identify fact from fiction, so of course this is totes believable for them.

For the record, I think Harry vacationed in Jamaica in 2014 with friends and larries used this as a way to insert Louis into the story through anon comments (what they call "receipts"), they love lying like this on anon to this day. It's very stupid to think celebrities are above the law in foreign countries. The first thing you do as a gay couple traveling abroad is see if a country is safe to visit, and you certainly wouldn't be acting like a couple out in public in a homophobic country. Larries are so so painfully stupid.

I can't get that link to work but agree with everything you say.

Eleanor and Louis vacationed in Jamaica at least twice and fans met them.

Larries prove time and time again that they know very little about the world beyond their own country. Remember that recent fake receipt about Larry moving to Italy to have IVF, when it isn't even offered to same sex couples there?

Harry seems to prefer the BVIs and Anguilla to Jamaica these days and has probably travelled to multiple other tropical destinations that we just don't know about. He loves the ocean so much that I'm sure he's tried scuba diving, for instance.

[seasurfacefullofclouds1]

The biggest thing is the consistency of his themes and song structure no matter whom he is writing with. He has written with so many different people but his songs always have his signature. He wrote so many songs with Liam but you could see the themes and structural flow of his writing follow him into his solo career (not Liam) which is what he was also panned for by the critics who said his songs sounded too similar to 1D, no shit Sherlock, he was their lead songwriter.

Harry’s songs in 1D sounded nothing like his songs later on. He has stuck with the same writers across 3 albums. Artists love working with different people, I have seen so many music documentaries as to why artists like collaborating with people with styles most different to their own, how pushing themselves out of their comfort zone creates a petridish of ideas. He went to Jamaica and Tokyo to create his album but worked with no local artists. Why did he go to these places? No Doubt went Jamaica to make Rocksteady. They worked with local dancehall, reggae artists.

Louis always gives credit to other songwriters giving exact details on what his contribution to certain songs was. Why is that a bad thing?

A lot of information here!

Since 1D, Louis has always talked about the concept of home. Both Louis and Harry came from families where their mothers were divorced when they were young, and then remarried. For Louis, this concept of “home” is a sense of being unrooted but always trying to return. I don’t know who wrote the lyrics in Story Of My Life,

But it can be interpreted as the love that their mothers gave to them to take on the road, with an endless depth, a bank that never goes empty.

Louis talks about being grounded, being rooted to home. He references Doncaster frequently. He brings his son to spend time with family on holidays (finally in 2021). Louis wrote a song called Home, which never made it onto a 1D album but which was eventually released on their only EP.

One correction: the songwriters from HS1 to Fine Line did change a bit. Jeff Bhasker was eventually dropped because he didn’t produce enough big hits.

It seems that Louis has found his professional home in the UK indie rock royalty, and we’ll soon be seeing some production work from James Ellis Ford. The early hints of new work are always exciting.

I don't care for old

I don't care for new

I care for passion and a love that's true

I hate the pain but it's what I need

I go where you go, I go where you lead

I want to play like my inner child

I need intensity not some thing mild

My heart is gold, I choose to believe,

I need an anchor, someone; someone who will never leave.

Adieu, Mr. Belafonte.

(NYTimes) Harry Belafonte, who stormed the pop charts and smashed racial barriers in the 1950s with his highly personal brand of folk music, and who went on to become a major force in the civil rights movement, died on Tuesday at his home on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. He was 96.

The cause was congestive heart failure, said Ken Sunshine, his longtime spokesman.

At a time when segregation was still widespread and Black faces were still a rarity on screens large and small, Mr. Belafonte’s ascent to the upper echelon of show business was historic. He was not the first Black entertainer to transcend racial boundaries; Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald and others had achieved stardom before him. But none had made as much of a splash as he did, and for a few years no one in music, Black or white, was bigger.

Born in Harlem to West Indian immigrants, he almost single-handedly ignited a craze for Caribbean music with hit records like “Day-O (The Banana Boat Song)” and “Jamaica Farewell.” His album “Calypso,” which contained both those songs, reached the top of the Billboard album chart shortly after its release in 1956 and stayed there for 31 weeks. Coming just before the breakthrough of Elvis Presley, it was said to be the first album by a single artist to sell more than a million copies.

Can you please expand on your tags? I would like to hear your thoughts.

it's wild to me that anyone would even ask why there are so few solo louies because if you've had the misfortune of being around since the ot4 disintegration then you've seen how anyone who cares about his artist career has been pushed out. but the fact that fans were pushed out is exactly why that question is asked. bc his music is so good it makes no sense that his fandom is essentially scraps from other fandoms.

but the fandom was never there for artist louis. larries wanted him to be a the voice coach; hets wanted him to be a family man living in a commune. he is the accessory to whichever dream scenario you have. he can't do festival shows because he's raising his siblings, don't you know? he can't do festival shows because he's hiding from the BTS cameras in jamaica.

i was declared an untouchable ~rad~ because i didn't like harry's pr and "new image" -- but the majority of declared rads didn't even talk about harry. i could list the accounts that were focused on business and were chased off by e**ie with the same lies that live on now, years and years later, with such conviction they could never be convinced otherwise. i hate harry but i have never said or done what these people accuse me of.

anyone declared ~rad~ is excised from the fandom with surgical precision. block them from all UAs and gifmakers, if they participate in any fests, helpful users will join in and WARN PEOPLE of the DEVIL!!

maybe that goes back to the sony slides that emphasise that he is a package deal. but it's gone beyond hets. people who meet him, the stalker fans and others do it with a mission: what did he say about harry? about danielle eleanor freddie briana? what did he look like when he asked? did he smile??? he's a weathervane, and that's what he should be.

i also blame LTHQ, because they've made absolutely zero effort to foster a healthy fanbase based on his own output. from headlines about 'eleanors boyfriend' or 'freddie's dad' -- propaganda works. he's a footnote in other people's stories. and if you challenge that, you are the threat.

it's been enough years now that tired fans tried to wait and make an effort but you can only do so much. especially with an unreceptive hostile fandom, and HQ that would rather have piggyback fans.

"why are there so few solo louies" because fandom follows the leader. and if you don't, you're an island of your own, cut off. you might last a while like so many did, but eventually the returns are too few to be worth it.

Yes. There’s really nothing new there except that both those people took the events as being real, as opposed to those of us who looked at how absolutely miserable Louis looked in that photo he posted, know that Always You was clearly not written for Eleanor because their relationship was and always had been fake, remember that Harry was in Jamaica right around that time as well, that it really did not seem that Eleanor was in Jamaica with Louis (as she was never actually spotted there), and realize that there’s absolutely no way Louis would call up a UA that included a bunch of larries to tell them how much he hates larries. But Sony, who still had Louis under their thumb as he was still tied to Syco, and who was in the process of sinking millions into Harry’s solo career, definitely had a reason to want larries, and gay rumors, and Louis to disappear.

In August of 2017, the day after he tweeted that he was pissed about some “industry shit” he leaked a snippet of Always You to make sure we knew about it, to make sure we knew the lyric was “I went to Amsterdam without you” and then went out of his way to mention he’d been there 6 months ago (with Eleanor when he took her to the gay section of town). He said over and over how important the song was to him, and that it was autobiographical, and then said he put it on the album “for the fans”.

On top of all of this, there has been SO MUCH that’s happened since that shows that Harry and Louis don’t have an issue with larries, and seem to still be together despite what ex-larries and antis believe.
