Harry Styles has announced the release of his second solo album, ‘Fine Line’, in a post that can be summed up in two words: bi rights.
The One Direction bicon made the announcement on social media, tweeting: “FINE LINE. THE ALBUM. DEC 13.”
The new album comes two and a half years after the release of his self-titled debut album.
After sending fans into a frenzy over his recent “bisexual anthem“, ‘Lights Up’, Styles has once again served some “big bi energy” and fans are losing it.

Harry Styles ‘said bi rights’.
The album’s artwork shows Styles dressed in a fuchsia shirt and high-waisted white trousers standing against a blue and pink background.
And for some fans, the message is crystal clear: Styles just “screamed ‘bi rights'”.

Ex-One Direction star addresses sexual ‘ambiguity’.
In August 2019, Styles spoke about the “aura of sexual ambiguity” that surrounds him in an interview for Rolling Stone.
The singer, who frequently waves Pride flags at his concerts, told the magazine he wants “to make people feel comfortable being whatever they want to be.
“Maybe at a show you can have a moment of knowing that you’re not alone. I’m aware that as a white male, I don’t go through the same things as a lot of the people that come to the shows.
“I can’t claim that I know what it’s like, because I don’t. So I’m not trying to say, ‘I understand what it’s like.’ I’m just trying to make people feel included and seen.”
