#ProjectOTB — Week 2 : Louis + Orange

“Louis always looks and shows his 28th tattoo with so much love, he does it as if it were his marriage ring”

HAPPY 28 🏠🥰🤍🤍🤍🤍💗💗💞

OVER THE RAINBOW x MEDICINE x TOXIC.

Remember the latest update involving Stanley Tucci?

He sits with -host- Gemma Styles to promote certain charitable causes; fine.

Status: Catching the fanbase's attention

Reason: The man is playing Clive Davis in Whitney Houston biopic coming up this year.

We are super used to this kind of auto promo or tactics focused on introducing new projects to new audiences, this fandom has witnessed them before. It happens in many fields, personally, I have also seen similar situations in my professional environment repeated times.

In this case, in addition to the evident connection to SONY, there are interesting observations to add to our library; who Clive Davis really is and why could be relevant to get to know him better?

Basically, the man has been the founder or head of all those Sony companies at some point and now he is indulging himself might be represented as Houston's discoverer in the biopic.

Summarizing, with Sony based, we recall Columbia, Arista, RCA and BMG. Sounds familiar?

Before this settles any panic, (the actual) BMG was founded in October 2008 after Bertelsmann sold its stake in Sony BMG & is 100% owned by Bertelsmann and one of the group's eight business divisions. Sony is also a distributor, such as Universal is to Harry in the US, so the participation within other labels may vary depending on the artist/country, but that's another story.

Back in July 2020, Louis announced via Twitter that his contract with SYCO, his label until the moment, had come to an end. In May 2021 Louis announced he was joining the BMG family for his second album: Press release 📰

These progressive changes can mean only positive things and great opportunities for Louis ahead and add up to all the modifications we have been getting since 2020: here

Talking about this, the following matter came up "Is Louis still attached to Sony?" Sadly, I believe all of the boys still have strings to their 1D contracts - which I think is the main issue- and that ends up in the label. Also, if nothing has changed, Louis is still the director of the Third String (which is under the wing of Sony).

I wish I knew more facts about labels, about their integrity and management quality since if you scratch a bit in other fanbases there are always "cases" and ugly stories too, which leads to thinking the industry is just built up in toxicity. Nothing new. My expectations or desire is that eventually, we get more switches like Louis' and that hopefully, these bring actual and factual results, we are so ready to see them as soon as possible.

Me siento medio inservible acá, tipo sólo leo y leo pero no aporto nada.

Cohabitación

O: Harry no tiene hogar

De acuerdo, hay una historia realmente sospechosa sobre si Harry y Louis viven juntos. Se mudaron juntos después del X-Factor (a las edades de 16 y 18, QUÉ INCLUSO). Después de que Larry Stylinson se convirtió en un gran problema entre los fanáticos y la gerencia presumiblemente comenzó a cerrar las cosas, los chicos comenzaron a decir que Harry y Louis ya no vivían juntos. La historia durante al menos 18 meses más o menos fue que Harry estaba "sin hogar", que compró una casa y estuvo en renovaciones durante años, y básicamente estaba haciendo couchsurfing con amigos. Esa casa, por cierto, es increíblemente accesible (está literalmente al lado de un pub y al lado de una parada de autobús) y todos conocen la dirección. No es un hogar para nadie que tenga verdaderos fanáticos acosadores. Recientemente, parece que han estado tratando de hacer que parezca que Harry está viviendo allí ahora, aunque los fanáticos que acampan afuera (sí ... ¿te gustaría vivir en un lugar así si fueras Harry? Es una casa señuelo seguro) lo he visto muy pocas veces.

Harry y Louis olvidan con frecuencia que no viven juntos o se burlan intencionalmente de la idea de que Harry no tiene un lugar donde vivir. Aquí hay algunos momentos turbios:

Esto es viejo, no mucho después de que Harry supuestamente se mudó y comenzó el gran impulso anti-Larry. Empiece a las 2:11. El entrevistador pregunta si viven juntos, Niall dice que no, luego Harry dice algo. A mí me suena mucho a "Algunos de nosotros todavía vivimos juntos". Definitivamente escucho la parte de "todavía vivimos juntos", al menos. No importa lo que diga, Louis se ríe, y luego Harry le da a Louis el guiño más ridículamente obvio de todos los tiempos. POR QUÉ

"Cuando estamos en casa ..."

"Ahora tengo esa foto encima de mi cama. No, no tengo casa". Bueno.

"Voy a parar en la U, y luego irme a casa, eh, iré a casa solo". Bueno.

"Entrega a domicilio de Tesco". A esa casa que no tienes. Bueno.

"Si entras en nuestra casa ..." [señal de la incómoda reacción de Louis]

HMMMMM todos juntos ahora (para explicar la parte inferior izquierda, que es la más reciente, justo antes del Día de Acción de Gracias, se les preguntó a los niños qué encontraría la gente en sus refrigeradores, y eso es lo que dijo Harry, en una magistral exhibición de burla). “Si fuera a tu refrigerador ahora mismo, ¿qué encontraría?. No vivo en ninguna parte entonces no hay comida. “

Solo otra recopilación de gifs. (Nota del traductor (aca Mag: mi post con momentos)

Además, en diciembre de 2013, recibió una orden judicial para evitar que los paparazzi lo fotografiaran en su casa. ¿PERO QUÉ CASA? ¿PENSABA QUE ESTABA SIN HOGAR? ¿La taberna blanca? ¿Dónde lo han hecho yendo al pub de al lado desde que entró en vigor la orden judicial? ¿Y dónde los fanáticos acampan constantemente? ¿O es una casa diferente? ¿Como una casa en particular con setos, donde le han hecho varias palmaditas? Sabemos que no es la casa de ninguno de los amigos con los que supuestamente vivía.

Harry whistling at the GRAMMYs tonight! (14 March 2021)

New Holivia Deuxmoi submission. No pics, of course. Laugh with me.

Ugh, my eyes just rolled back so hard.

This sounds like it’s about last weekend (?) at Soho Farmhouse (?). They’re keeping the “let’s make this super believable” streak. Can this movie come out already so this stunt can be over?

I’m not aware of any Ferraris Harry owns in the UK. Here are his cars.

A couple of weeks ago, I had an incident where I was openly invalidated and shamed for being closeted by two people I trusted. As someone who has struggled with internalized homophobia in my youth from my environment growing up and is still closeted to my loved ones, this situation has weighed heavy on me.

Yet, these past two Harry Styles shows, I felt the courage (alongside my friend) to display my identity in the most public of ways by waving a bi flag. The first night, I was overwhelmed with all the love and support from everyone who saw our flag draped over the balcony— both in-person and in photos/videos/livestreams. The second night, we were able to be in the pod next to the catwalk, and wave our flag during Lights Up where Harry looked directly at us. He didn’t interact with it, but just knowing he saw it— he saw me with such a big part of me grasped tightly in my hand, it felt unreal. I’m so fortunate for Harry and the space he’s given me for years to be myself and to love myself when I feel otherwise, because I don’t think I would’ve been as comfortable or as free as I did these past two nights with that flag if it hadn’t been for him and this special space he’s created. I cant thank him and my friend enough for allowing me to be myself during such a rough time. Just happy. Yeah ✨🤍

Me da risa lo cariñoso que es Louis con sus amigas pero con Eleanor......

Amo verlo feliz estando con sus amigos.

Anti larries don't do masterposts full of stereotypes, don't force them out of the closet, don't take it upon themselves to decide what their sexuality is and post it on thousands of posts for years upon years on internet, don't fetishize, don't make them more uncomfortable by having even more pressure to be careful if they are indeed in the closet. Anti larries do listen to Dan and to Lauren and so many other queer people who said their closets, their sexuality is not your fandom entertainment

of course not, you’re way too busy being larries fans. you have entire blogs and podcasts, yt channels, all dedicated exclusively to larries and what we say and do. your entire online presence is not about Harry and Louis, it’s about us. you don’t stan the boys, you stan us. you love to call us a cult, but you do the exact same thing... except you’re lives turn around random, strangers online. we’re not famous, we’re not celebrities and yet you and your fellow minions act like we are. stalking us daily, screenshoting posts, @us, threatening, doxxing, sending ask after ask to every blog you can reach, discussing every single thing we say in length... that’s fan behaviour, baby. borderline obsessive, actually. you should buy yourself a mirror and look at it for a good hour before ever thinking of trying to have high moral ground over larries. out of the two of us, you’re the one on the inbox of someone you could simply block and forget. you’re not some justice warrior, go find a healthy way to cope with your problems and leave larries alone. especially tumblr larries, who stay out of anywhere public and keep it to their blogs that no one can find unless they look for it - like y’all do :)

no, you know what? i’ll say some more. y’all love to ignore the many, many celebs that have come forward and talked about being forcefully closet, ignoring that it happens because the industry is disgusting and homophobic and not because a bunch of fans think they’re gay. you claim to care so much, but ignore every abuse as long as it fits with going against larries. you ignore real valid concerns and questions, that fans are allowed to have, just because you think you’re the heterosexual messiah. you’re no better fan than anyone else, you’re on the same boat, buddy. you’re just an asshole with a god complex and zero balls to come off anon. that’s the truth
