Harry Styles shared an adorable moment with someone’s baby on the set of his “As It Was” music video.
On Tuesday, the One Direction alum, 28, released a behind-the-scenes video from the shoot which shows him lifting the baby in the air — like Simba in The Lion King — and sweetly comforting the little one as the crew watches.
The clip also shows Styles working on his choreography alongside his costar, Mathilde Lin. They practice their routine on a rotating platform. At one point, the duo — dressed in coordinated jumpsuits — both lean into the center of the stage and grasp for each other’s hands and share a hug as they finish a shot.
The “Watermelon Sugar” singer is also seen between dancing shirtless in front of a colorful mural and bonding with crew members between shots.
Last month, the video’s choreographer Yoann Bourgeois opened up to Billboard about making the video and working with Styles.
“We need to let the artist accustom themselves to the platform physically — it can be a bit disorienting,” Bourgeois had said. “We had a few days with Harry, and he was actually very talented, and it seemed like Harry was having a lot of fun, so we kept in the music video a lot of the moments of playfulness from that.”
In an interview with SiriusXM’s The Morning Mash Up in April, Styles revealed creating “As It Was” and his upcoming album Harry’s House — out May 20 —was “easily the most joyous of anything that I’ve experienced so far while making music.”
“It’s inevitable that if you’re gonna make something that you care so much about, you’re gonna feel pressure and a lot of vulnerability when putting it out,” he said. “I think then you kind of have a choice on how you approach it.”
“I feel very lucky that this is kind of the proudest I’ve been of something that I’ve made so far and I feel like kind of the most comfortable I’ve been with myself and happiest with what I’m making and the best I felt about something that I’m making, so I feel like there’s only so much you can do,” he continued.
Styles added that his music now coming from “a real place of kind of personal freedom and that is a really liberating place to be kind of creating from.”
Last month, the Grammy winner announced the full tracklisting for Harry’s House.
In addition to “As It Was,” the album will feature tracks “Music For a Sushi Restaurant,” “Late Night Talking,” “Grapejuice,” “Daylight,” “Little Freak,” “Matilda,” “Cinema,” “Daydreaming,” “Keep Driving,” “Satellite,” “Boyfriends,” and “Love of My Life.”
Styles will head back out on the road for more dates of his Love on Tour later this year in Europe, North America, Latin America, and Oceania.H
