At the 2023 Grammy Awards, Harry Styles faced an unexpected challenge that nearly derailed his much-anticipated performance.
Celebrated for his album “Harry’s House,” Styles was ready to dazzle the audience with a live rendition of his hit song after winning the award for Best Pop Vocal Album of the Year.
However, what was supposed to be a flawless showcase quickly turned into a scramble due to a significant technical glitch.
As the lights dimmed and the curtain lifted, the stage was set with a spinning turntable that Styles and his dancers had meticulously rehearsed.
But in a surprising twist, the turntable began to spin in the opposite direction from what they had practiced.
This sudden change threw the entire performance into disarray, leaving the dancers flustered and scrambling to adjust on the fly.
Dancer Brandon Mathis took to Instagram to share the behind-the-scenes chaos, explaining how the turntable malfunctioned just as the performance began.
He noted that there was no way to halt the spinning once it started, which added to the tension in the air.
The reality of performing live means that anything can happen, and this was a prime example of that unpredictability.
Meanwhile, another dancer, Dexter, shared his frustration on TikTok, revealing that they had rehearsed the routine countless times in a counterclockwise motion.
