The former One Directioner shared a photoset on Instagram to mark the end of the era, including a shot of him laying on a rug, presumably backstage, cuddled up underneath the banner for a moment of peace following his jam-packed schedule the last few weeks. “Love On Tour. New York City XV. September, 2022,” he captioned the post, which also featured a closeup of him in costume on stage, the banner raised proudly in the background. “Thank you MSG. Thank you NYC.” Styles is only the third musician to have a banner raised in the arena, according to Billboard, following in the footsteps of Billy Joel—who has two—and Phish. The “As It Was” singer sold out 15 consecutive nights when he turned MSG into Harry’s House, and the venue commemorated the occasion during his final show. Now that’s star power! Several TikTokers captured the moment when Gayle King walked out on stage to surprise him, as well as Styles just taking it in and even getting distracted later on when he caught sight of it again. Styles was more than touched by the gesture, tearing up as he took in the crowd. “I just want to say, from the bottom of my heart to each and every single one of you here tonight this will not [looks up at banner] … that’s insane.” After a moment to pull himself together, he went on. “To all of you who bought a ticket, thank you so, so much for your support. Things like this don’t happen to people like me very often, things like this don’t happen to people like me very often at all and I just want to thank you all. You changed my life. Each and every single one of you. Thank you so, so, much! Any time that you come to Madison Square Garden and you see that, you remember it’s because of you. That is ours. Thank you so, so much. All of you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!” Naturally, fans were thrilled for him. After all, it’s what he deserves! “SO INCREDIBLY PROUD OF YOU,” one wrote on Instagram. “msg was really harrys house after all,” another said. “Crying in a cool way,” one comment on TikTok read. As King said on stage, “We don’t want to say goodnight to you, Harry Styles!" Please come back soon. More News:
