One of the most prestigious pop stars in the world right now is Harry Styles. He extended his winning streak last night when he accepted the Artist of the Year BRIT Award.
He caused nostalgia among his One Direction followers. He praised his mother for sneaking him onto The X-Factor in his award speech last night, in addition to thanking his former bandmates.
