The Cameo In Harry Styles' New Music Video Is Turning Heads

If you want to kick off 2021 on a positive note, Harry Styles is right there with you. On New Year's Day, the British singer and actor dropped a new music video for his 2019 song "Treat People With Kindness," off his sophomore studio album, Fine Line.

The chorus of "Treat People With Kindness" has a straightforward message of positivity: "Maybe we can / Find a place to feel good / And we can treat people with kindness / Find a place to feel good." It also has an inclusive tone: "And if we're here long enough / We'll see it's all for us / And we'll belong."

In the retro black-and-white video, Styles is performing in a nightclub — slaying, per usual — when he invites someone in the audience to dance with him. He stretches out his hand to the chic club-goer, and the two take the stage together. So who's the special guest?

The cameo in Harry Style's new music video, directed by Ben Turner and Gabe Turner, is none other than fellow Brit Phoebe Waller-Bridge, known for creating and acting in the Amazon Prime series Fleabag (for which she won three Emmys) and creating the BBC series Killing Eve.

Wearing matching outfits — white slacks, white long-sleeve blouses, and argyle-patterned vests adorned with sequins — the duo proceeds through a cheeky bit of synchronized choreography. Waller-Bridge keeps a confident smirk on her face all the while.

At the end, in a gender role reversal (which is so Styles), they embrace, and Bridge lowers Styles into a dip. Fleabag fans will love the nod to the show when the last frame features Waller-Bridge breaking the fourth wall and staring straight at the camera with a grin.

The fun, retro-feeling video is just what we all need to head into 2021 with a little bit of positivity.
