Harry Styles sparks major fan debate with new touring approach
Harry Styles has sparked a fresh storm in the pop music world, with fans questioning what his new touring approach is.
As talk around his next album and performances grows louder, the 31-year-old singer’s name keeps coming up in discussions about if his “traditional” world tour is slowly losing its grace.
Styles’ last tour, Love On Tour, was massive as it travelled across many countries which featured more than 150 shows and became one of the highest earning tours in recent years.
However, all of the One Direction’s fans flew from different parts of the world just to watch him on stage.
That success is why his recent move has surprised many people and instead of announcing shows in dozens of cities, Styles now seems interested in residency style concerts in a few major places.
Moreover, thse longer stays will allow him to focus more on the show itself, but they also make it harder for international fans to attend.
Ticket prices have added to the frustration, with just a few shows and huge demand, prices have gone up, leaving many fans feeling left out.
Still, others believe that this change reflects how the music industry is going now.
More artists are choosing smaller, focused runs that are easier to manage and offer a polished experience.

After ads, will ChatGPT responses remain trustworthy? OpenAI says yes
As OpenAI is gearing up to rollout ads for both free and $8 ChatGPT Go, the company has assured users that ads will not affect ChatGPT’s responses and will be labelled and separated from the content.
Early signs of this rollout have been spotted on Android devices, suggesting the inclusion of ads in ChatGPT is close.
As noted on X (formerly Twitter), OpenAI has designed a full-screen onboarding experience to familiarise users with ads in ChatGPT.
Although the AI giant has assured not to share personal information with advertisers, the current chat may still influence the type of sponsored ads displayed below the answers.
At the current stage, the commendable thing is that users have the option to hide ads, understand why specific ads were shown, and clear their ad data.
Ads will appear as a “Sponsored” block, and tapping the overflow menu draws the dropdown to hide the ad, report it, or even “Ask ChatGPT” about it.
OpenAI stated: “Our mission is to ensure AGI benefits all of humanity; our pursuit of advertising is always in support of that mission and making AI more accessible.”
Furthermore, the company has emphasised that conversations will remain private from advertisers and that user data will never be sold. A new “Ads controls” page has also been added to let users manage their ad history and interests without affecting their chat data.
These ads won’t be displayed to users of ChatGPT Plus, Pro, Business, and Enterprise plans.

David Beckham makes dig at Brooklyn amid family rift: ‘Watch and learn’
As the Beckham family drama deepens, David Beckham had refrained from making a direct comment about any of the tensions.
However, the doting father, who often roasts his children playfully, sent a pointed message to his estranged son, Brooklyn, as he collaborated with his close friend Gordon Ramsay.
The famous British chef, who himself is going through some drama with regards to his son-in-law Adam Peaty, shared an update.
David, who is a legendary former footballer, flaunted one of his many skills, cooking. In a video clip, Gordon and David are seen on a video call in which David makes a scallop risotto.
“Usually when David Beckham calls it’s about football but I was surprised when he was cooking up one of my homechef recipes, Gordon had written on Instagram.
Before marrying Nicola Peltz, Brooklyn had tried to launch himself as a cook as he shared videos of himself cooking simple recipes. However, most of the time he was roasted and trolled for his skills, which were often dubbed as mediocre.
While he pursued cooking for a while, he seemed to have abandoned that idea and modify it by selling his own hot sauce.
The update comes over a week after Brooklyn made a series of shocking Instagram Stories posts about his family. He had broken his silence on the ongoing rumours about a rift in the family and clearly stated that he “[does] not want to reconcile with [his] family.”
He noted, “I’m not being controlled, I’m standing up for myself for the first time in my life.”
