honestly, no hate to Zayn whatsoever, but how is it that he is getting the promo for his new single from Jimmy Fallon, hot ones, and now rolling stones and many others without any tour. like I obv love that for him, but I always see how under his insta posts such huge social media handles comment like MTV, Spotify etc etc whereas under lthq/louis' post we barely get to see comments from such published platforms with reach, we get a comment from iHeartRadio here and there, like I love them both(z&l) very dearly but at times it just feels so unfair to Louis in all regards, there's always little to no promo for him on these recognized platforms like last I remember. sorry for the rant Gina, I wish you a good day!

I honestly don’t follow Zayn’s career (although I love the new single), but I would imagine his new label is putting a fair bit of money behind him. Louis’ situation has always, always been different. He’s done remarkably well for an artist basically doing everything on his own. It’s frustrating to see him not get what you feel he deserves, but I think there’s so much at play behind the scenes that I couldn’t possibly pinpoint a specific reason for the disparity.

also louis changed his tiktok from lthq to louistomlinsonhq recently. louis also posted on his insta story “diy” a couple weeks ago. i wonder what that’s about? do you think louis fired his management team? like maybe it woke the boys up seeing what happened to liam like w liam’s team abusing him. maybe they feared they’d be in a similar situation? idk maybe im being paranoid. i feel like change is coming w larry. i genuinely hope for good news. i might be delulu when it comes to the user change but idk.

stop the diy post made me CACKLE I love that man and he really thought he did something but guitarists have been out here doing that forever 😂😭 he’s soooooo cute.

anyway yeah idk if he’s dropped his team at all but I do feel change is coming too - I can’t quite pinpoint it and maybe im insane but I just FEEL IT

It's not just the age difference. It's the complete and utter power imbalance. He's rich, famous, far more experienced (even when he was her age), male. She's some Danish kid who's fresh off the plane. And don't you think it's more likely that LTHQ flew her to LA specifically for this rather than she somehow got into a celebrity party before she'd even recovered from jet lag? And as if a young girl who had just come to LA and met famous folk wouldn't have posted on her insta. I do wonder how and when she was recruited.

okay well first of all she lives in LA and your whole "innocent girl imported from Denmark and doesn't even know what's going on" narrative is weird, but more to the point I think she's plenty old enough to make her own decisions around what she can handle by way of jetlag and other work choices, and that this is a weirdly condescending way to talk about an adult trying to make it in the entertainment industry. But more to the point- the power imbalance would be a potential issue IF THEY WERE DATING. But power imbalances between bosses and employees are not just normal, they are literally an integral part of that relationship. That's why it's gross and not okay for people in those positions to date! And if you're making an argument that it's also gross in work situations well listen, I'm an anti capitalist and I couldn't agree more, abolish wage labor and all of it, but a non famous non celeb person being an employee of a rich celeb is hardly a red flag in this society, and no more exploitative than most other jobs. The power imbalances around experience and status and wealth also exist between, like, Harry and his PA Luis for example, so why is this different and is she less able to make that call for herself? It seems to me that this is where you really see the parallels between how people view bearding and sex work- even people who say and think that they know it's fake still get all weird and puritanical about it and think it's just that little bit different from other jobs, that okay it's fake but like it's still kind of like it's real so dating rules apply! No: it's a job. It's not in a special category or personal or intimate: it's just a job. She's an influencer trying to make it and just got her big break (insta followers up 600% and counting in 12 hours!) and chose to take it, good for her. Do you think Louis and the other guys would thank you for denying them their big break as actual teens on the grounds that they were too young and inexperienced to handle it? With the experiences they had in the industry (and presumably would never perpetuate on someone else) and Louis' commitment to helping up and coming folks make it, to say nothing of his general caretaker tendencies and concern for young women he sees as his responsibility, I actually can't think of anyone I'd rather see someone in her position take a job like this with, she hit the fucking jackpot.

Using my BFA in Fashion Design ( and 5 years of industry experience working with fabrics like this) to explain why Lou's pants look different in different lights:

The fabric used in these particular pants from Stone Island is especially developed by Stone Island- it's a woven nylon fabric, that uses different weft and warp yarns, creating a metallic / tonal sheen to the fabric. Thus, in certain lights / image / angles, the fabric is going to look like a different color than it does in other lights! Depending on the lighting for the photo he shared on his insta story- and the slight editing that looks like it occurredthe fabric would look totally different- and you can tell that especially because the pants in the photo shared by LTHQ on insta look bluer than in the image Louis shared

You can see bits of the sheen in the images from the website- there it looks bluer in the creases and folds, and greener where the light hits it.

Essentially- Lou wore pants that would naturally have a blue / green color shift to them due to the colors of the yarns that were woven together!

lthq incompetent and idiots as always announcing the festival so late in a tourist area where everything is expensive af to book rn on such a short notice. But I love watching them trying to promote it lol. Let them get creative beyond some random insta posts and stories from afhf account which not even all fans follow.

Have they even done anything besides posting about the tickets in Louis’ stories every now and then?😭

Why don’t more people talk about this and have it in their 2021 master posts? I’m new to the fandom, was this proven to be fake? Apparently according to insta and tiktok this was posted on LTHQ some time in May but then immediately taken off.

Hi dear,

That's not true. A few corrections:

Krupa music were the ones who posted this video to their stories on May 29 2021. They're a music producer and work with Louis, and have been working with him on LT2. They didn't take it down.

This video IS in 2021 masterposts, you just have to look. And no it's not fake.

Here and here are tags about it.

It's in this May 2021 timeline (check May 29)

It's also in my Larry 2021 tag

In a lot of those posts we thought he said bukkake, but he says "we're cocky", just a warning!

This is what they say:

Krupa: Styles! When I start the video, don’t laugh.

Harry: Rude

Krupa: We're cocky!

LT band news! Guitarist Isaac posted a pic of himself with the other guitarist and bassist, plus LTHQ team member Jessie! Things are happening…idk what things, but THINGS! We know tour shows aren’t for a long while now so what might they be rehearsing or meeting for? Hopes are up that it could be to do promo for a single!! But really whatever it is would be exciting as hell. The shopping list for the recipe Louis will be following for his video is out and it does not look like it’ll be challenging- it’s a fish finger sandwich! I’m a little confused by the addition of waffles (not to mention sugar) in the ingredient list but overall how hard can it be right? I guess we’ll find out. And a fan who met Louis the other day says she had him write HOME for a tattoo and “told him that the song is extremely important for the whole lgbtq+ community” and that he “smiled and said thank you and bless you darling,” and we got more video from yesterday of him out by the studio; he was wearing the skull/ laurel/ rose/ triangle ‘new era’ cap again, nice, and how appropriate for the exciting LT2 era things he is cooking up (not the fish fingers, the other stuff.)

The much hyped Our Song behind the scenes video is finally here! We see the part where Niall pretends to be afraid of the dog that was hired to bark at him, but as we were told, the dog does not bark and was therefore fired; maybe the poor dog was just starstruck, leave her alone! Plus Niall and Anne are cute and look to be having fun, of course. And last night Niall was papped in Hollywood, looking good in all black with gucci loafers, oh lala.

Behind the scenes videos hype continues, with one for Lima’s NFT as well- it opens with a voiceover saying “stop being scared of who you are, you’re not negative you’re vulnerable” and other uplifting soundbites, then shows Liam drawing and walking in a beautiful forested glade, but mostly in his house he recently moved out of- Winston the dog has a sleeping-in-the-background cameo- and he and the other collaborators (musician Zedd and animator Gabe Damast) talk about how they worked out the concepts over zoom and tell us about Liam’s concept for the piece. They also talk about (and show one of) the physical objects and fancy packaging for it that they’ve made to sell along with the NFT, presumably because simply buying bragging rights of ownership of an intangible digital item isn’t actually terribly satisfying, so they need to provide some actual thing. Besides the dinner in Vegas that the buyers will be invited to join them at that is; we also learn more about that and oh my GOD wtf… uh I mean what they said is that it will take place in a literal glass box in the middle of the resort I honestly didn’t know they could make it sound MORE UNPLEASANT to me holy crap, not even to hug Liam would I do that. Liam also did a live where he tells us some stuff we already knew about Louis and Harry; about Louis he said that he’s working on music right now and “god he’s got long hair now doesn’t he”, I KNOW RIGHT, and about Harry that “he looks great in his policeman uniform,” Liam you WOULD like that, and “name a man who can pull off every look.”

Harry followed musician Pauli the PSM on insta. And as he’s often used his follows to tell us about people he is working with/ preparing something with one always wonders… For example as his scheduled shows for this year draw ever nearer with no rescheduling announcement yet, we’re all becoming impatient to know if he’s planning to play any of them this year. And if so, I know I wouldn’t be at all surprised if brand new mom Sarah Jones chose to sit a few out, so today’s follow of a British drummer… well, <eyeballs emoji>, right?! Honestly though it could be for any reason, that’s just wild speculation.

Louis liked Spotify UK’s post about 5 years of Walls 31/1/25

I think the anger was b/c fans paid for this billboard themselves and it appears lthq/Charlie is supporting this behavior of fans paying out of pocket for marketing when that should be L and his teams job. I understand that lthq is not specifically asking for this type of fan behavior, but this acknowledgment from his team definitely encourages it. Also, they asked for us to trend his documentary on twitter with the promise of a promo trailer but that hasn’t happened yet. We’re doing all the work for scraps when the bare minimum for a documentary is a trailer which likely should be released before fans purchase tickets.

Oh that makes much more sense. I mean, if Charlie hasn’t said anything, fans would then be mad that their effects weren’t being acknowledged. 🙄 Someone is always angry in this fandom.

I find everything surrounding this documentary very, very strange. Who is it for? If it’s for the GP, there’s no hook. Why would someone who doesn’t know Louis go and see this film? If it’s for the fans, why go to the effort (and expense) of making it, but then drop the ball after announcing it exists?

The way almost all promo is left up to fans is bizarre. I see some newer fans are pumped up over the idea of doing it, but people who’ve been doing it year after year are tired and annoyed.

About your theory that Louis was excluded from the solo 1d members singing 1d songs vid that the bbc sounds posted because the Niall, Liam and Harry footage was on a bbc program. That part stems from the fact that the bbc had never invited Louis to perform at bbc music event like they did the others. Also they had to have to google Zayn's vid because Zayn sang that song on his IG story in 2022. Imagine not even trying to google Louis Tomlinson sings a 1D song because there are plenty of vids they could have used.

you can't just google a random video and post it on the official BBC socials: Zayn's video was posted by him to his public insta, ie HE made it public. There is no fucking way the BBC could just use a random youtube fanvid without permission from Louis' team; even Rolling Stone UK had to take down THEIR OWN video of Louis' performance while they sorted things with LTHQ. I am well aware that people are much too attached to their industry conspiracy theories to listen to any of this but the fact is that sometimes a social media post made by a social media manager is actually just going to be a person doing things the easiest and quickest possible way, and not evidence of an industry wide secret cabal out to get someone

Sun 31 Jan ‘21 

Happy Walls Dayyy!!!!!! Today was the first anniversary of our #1 fave debut album of 2020, and we all celebrated, Louis included! Last but best thing first: WE GOT A DEMO!! Louis ended the day by publishing a dreamy clip of a demo of the title song ‘Walls’. His clear voice croons over beautiful sliding electric guitars and background reverberance- if that’s his FIRST draft then he is, as we knew, a GENIUS! AND, the King Himself came on twitter to interact with his “loyal” (his words) subjects (that’s us!). He popped up at first to say that his tour, when it comes around, will be “fucking unbelievable...this is our day!”, and talked about his favorite part of the last year (“the two shows I played”), what he noticed most when performing solo the first times (“the space on stage” ughhhh all the tears), what he was looking forward to after COVID (“everything”) and getting through these times- “remember that everything is going to be better when normality sets back in.” He also explained that while he was gonna put out merch today, he “didn’t want to market the day”, but rather make it “a celebration just for us”. But, uh, the merch will be coming eventually! He then replied that there were “too many greedy fuckers out there” who try turn celebratory events into a “cash grab” (to quote the fan), and harries then got mad at that because THEY were like this must be about Harry (lol uhhhh) and assumed he was shading him and Jeff rather than, I don’t know, his OWN FORMER LABEL?? Cool cool cool, but it’s still Harry’s moth on Spotify, so cope. He told us that his proudest moment on the album was recording the strings for the Walls the Single, that he wouldn’t have approached the process differently because he’s still really proud of the album, that he was most looking forward to us hearing KMM or Walls, that Doncaster is his fav place (to no one’s surprise lmao), and, asked what song he likes to rock out to off HIS ALBUM was like oh hey have I got a rec for you: “Maybe Tomorrow” by the Stereophonics. It goes, “think I'll walk me outside and buy a rainbow smile, but be free” and “maybe tomorrow I’ll find my way home” (huh is there something happening tomorrow that could be linked to... OH. Right. Huh. Well all that is just a coincidence I’m sure, it’s not like Louis ever said he likes to rec songs because he wants us to read into the lyrics or anything... oh wait.)    

LTHQ did a insta quiz over on their stories (I only got two questions wrong!) and they did the promised virtual listening party and tweeted along to each song and retweeted fans’ reactions (and all the usernames, larries everywhere, we SEE YOU). Friends of Louis joined in the celebration- Only The Poets, Ashton Irwin of 5SoS fame, Helene Hornyck (“all the love,” she said!), Isaac Anderson and more, and All On The Board made one of their lovely Frankenstein poems which mashing up a bunch of LT1 songs, but in keeping with the theme of the day (and COVID I GUESS) did it as fanart rather than the usual in person board. And all of that was the BORING part of the day, can you BELIEVE?? The FUN part was the Walls Fanart that was chosen to be the new Spotify cards on the official Walls album. As in, they are up right now if you want to go check them out, but I’m gonna tell you straight up: they’re half Harry tats! The Defenseless card, especially, as it is just straight up fanart of Harry’s moth tattoo, especially fun when he had JUST got us talking about its Papillion origin with his finsta! The artist had been worried that Louis would be mad at them for submitting ‘Larry art’, and was overjoyed to learn that, uh... apparently, he was NOT. That was not all! The ‘Too Young’ art card is H’s rose tattoo, ‘Habit’ and ‘Fearless’ were both different variations of H’s anatomical heart tat (the ‘Habit’ one even included the word kind :{) ), and the We Made It rainbow wheel did, in fact, make it to Spotify, just like we thought! “Perfect Now” was Louis standing under a rainbow spotlight—they made that one black and white for spotify but the artist shared the original version. Harries were beside themselves, and tagged Jeff (Azoff), Ben Winston, and Gemma Styles (what?), demanding that they make Louis take the art down because it was clearly Harry art, which 1.) how much more blatant can you be if even ANTIS are noticing and 2.) what sort of control do they think Jeff, Ben, and Gemma have over Louis seeing as, uh, none of them currently work for him??? Weird, are they thinking there might be some kind of link... between Harry and his team and Louis... tell me more antis, truly, I’m fascinated!

One would think that’s more than enough for one day but WAIT THERE’S MORE Zayn is in EXCELLENT quirky Zayn form having fun with his own merch—he posted a gremlin (from the old RL Stine movie ‘Gremlins’) in a NIL beanie captioned “one size fits all humanoid shaped heads” late last night, haaaaa. Yes, I agree! The red stitching really makes the gremlin’s red eyes pop, and his fangs have never looked this good! And the question arose, is Harry’s finsta actually just his side account for following nothing but gay meme accounts? Evidence—the discovery of a second follow, of the openlygayanimals account-- would suggest yes! Well that’s valid, imagine having to not only navigate the internet AS HARRY but also without funny memes of your choice, that’s no life to lead. And Niall complained on twitter that people didn’t understand his sense of humor because SARCASM! He also tweeted about golf, which I’m sure was cool for people who understand it.
