Harry Styles kissed Ben Marshall while talking about ‘queerbaiting’ allegations

Harry Styles was the host and musical guest on Saturday Night Live’s March 14, 2026, episode. While being there, Harry talked about his fandom’s repetitive comments about him ‘queerbaiting’ as he chose certain gender-bending clothes, or played the role of a gay character in his film, My Policeman, and by being vague about his sexuality in his interviews. He further added that people would often comment on the type of clothes he wore, while adding that they should realise they don’t know everything about him. Harry Styles said:

“Back then, people seemed to pay a lot of attention to the clothes I was wearing and some people accused me of something called “queerbaiting”. But did it ever occur to you that maybe you don’t know everything about me, Dad?”

Well, what happened following this incident instantly sparked a gossip around. While talking about the allegations around him, Harry Styles grabbed Ben Marshall and kissed him, saying, ‘Now, that’s queerbaiting’. To mention it was only a part of a comedy bit, but the act grabbed significant attention, especially when the speculations about his sexuality had been re-ignited.

Harry Styles’s comments about his personal life re-ignited the talk about his sexuality

For his fourth album and upcoming tour, Harry Styles has been attending several interviews. He attended Q with Tom Power podcast and was interviewed on Runner’s World, wherein he talked about finding himself. He shared how his life was more open first, and then he started doing his own stuff, learning what is that thing which makes him comfortable, like keeping his personal life private.

Now, music industry sources revealed to Radar Online, his comments were taken differently by people. As per the sources, Harry Styles’s comments about self-discovery and dancing, or having emotional moments in a nightclub, have been taken with a twist. The insider revealed that the singer’s openness about personal growth is being mocked, which his close ones feel to be extremely unfair and rooted in stereotypes.

Harry’s comments were more about being vulnerable and personal growth and mental health, wherein such harsh comments about him breaking down in tears were taken as a sign of hidden sexuality, which felt outdated and unfair to his close ones, as the singer was not trying to hide his sexuality, but he was sharing how he copes with fame. The insider revealed:

“Several trolls are claiming his stories about finding himself and partying in tears in a Berlin nightclub sound ‘gay.’ People close to Harry think that kind of reaction is completely unfair and rooted in outdated stereotypes, especially as they fly in the face of the trend of men being encouraged to open up and be vulnerable and talk about their mental health, which is what Harry is really doing here. He is definitely not hiding his true sexuality or referring to exploring that; he is talking about how he has coped with fame.”
