Harry Styles opened the 2026 BRIT Awards on Saturday with a live performance debut of his new single “Aperture.”

The singer channeled the movement-heavy music video for the single during the performance. He started sitting on a set of bleachers surrounded by dancers wearing black shades and T-shirts with snails on them. The dancers performed choreography mostly featuring elaborate hand gestures. Styles, dressed in a button-down shirt, tie, and high-waisted trousers, led the choreography before getting up and moving around the stage.

When it came time for the pre-chorus, Styles was joined by a choir. The dancers then met him in the middle of the stage for a finale, surrounding him as they waved their hands.

The appearance came in support of his upcoming album, Kiss All the Time. Disco, Occasionally, due out March 6. It marked his first live performance since the 2023 BRIT Awards, when he performed “As It Was” from Harry’s House.

He is also set to embark on a massive tour that features residencies across the globe, kicking off May 16 in Amsterdam. The trek includes a 30-date residency at New York’s Madison Square Garden; the record-breaking demand for those tickets led Styles to add more European shows.

But before that, Styles will pull double-duty as both host and musical guest at Saturday Night Live on March 14.

Jeffrey Epstein Positioned Himself as a Cultural Savant. What Music Did He Really Listen To?

For decades, Jeffrey Epstein was considered an enigma. Often casually sporting blue jeans and mussed-up hair, the ultra-wealthy Manhattan financier held himself with an air of smugness that transcended still-frame snapshots of him.

He was notoriously well-connected, keeping an expansive and eclectic circle of royals, world leaders, titans of business, renowned scientists, and thought leaders in his pocket. Epstein positioned himself as a cultural savant, holding court with director Woody Allen and his wife Soon-Yi Previn and discussing their thoughts on Swedish filmmaker Ingmar Bergman. When he regretfully declined an invitation to attend a symposium on improvising classical music, the organizer lamented they’d miss his “musical thinking.” His Amazon account paints him as a prolific and well-rounded reader, according to Bloomberg, which went through the dozens of titles he ordered, including books on philosophy, mathematics, investment, historical figures, and “middlebrow erotica.”
