Although it's been 4 years this December since One Direction split up, most of us are still struggling to get over it. Thankfully, Niall, Liam, Zayn, Harry, and Louis have all launched their own successful solo careers, spanning various different genres and giving us all a taste of what each member is capable of. Styles in particular has released some fascinating material, with his latest single "Lights Up" proving that the 25-year-old has a number of strings to his bow. But even with the media spotlight firmly on Harry, there are still plenty of things we don't know about the British singer. So, without further ado, we've picked our 3 favorite things that you may not know about Harry Styles.
He Celebrated 1D's Debut Album Success With…a Mattress
Although it was a shoo-in that One Direction's debut album would top the US Billboard chart, it still represented a remarkable achievement for the band. But those who thought that this would go to Harry's head were mistaken – instead of partying long into the night, he celebrated the band's chart topping album by purchasing a new mattress. The fact that the members have stayed grounded despite their success is just one of many reasons why they are still loved across the globe and will continue to be supported in their future endeavors.

He Played Tattoo Roulette on Live TV With James Corden
Harry already has a plethora of tattoos, so what's one more? Right? Well, when One Direction made an appearance on James Corden's late night talk show, the band played tattoo roulette, with the band member picking the box that contained the words "Tattoo" having to get the words "Late Late" inked on their body. Tattoo roulette differs slightly from the adrenaline-fueled traditional casino game in that players generally pick phrases out of a hat. However, James Corden is on trend when it comes to pioneering new versions of roulette and there are a number of up-to-date versions currently growing in popularity. Evolution live roulette at Aspers.com, for example, makes use of HD cameras so that users can play from their mobile devices while simulating the experience of being in a real life casino. Ultimately Harry Styles knows what's hot and what isn't – and he even got a new tattoo out of the experience. What's not to like?
He Can Play the Kazoo
As well as having the voice of angel, Harry can juggle and more impressively, play the kazoo. Back in 2011, he responded to a number of fan questions asking him about the instruments he can play. He tried to play down his kazoo mastery, explaining that it's "one of the easiest instruments to play" but went on to reveal his frustration with learning the guitar. Thankfully, ex-bandmate Niall has since give him a few lessons, and he seems pretty proficient with the strings between his fingers.
Where Does He Go From Here?
With Harry's solo career blossoming, the sky really is the limit for the singer. His latest single has received rave reviews; and with a debut album expected out some time next year, it appears that we will be seeing much more of the young Mick Jagger lookalike. And we couldn't be happier about that.
