Brits 2020: Harry Styles puts on a brave face as he performs Falling after knifepoint mugging
HARRY Styles put on a brave face as he performs Falling after his knifepoint mugging.
The former One Direction singer, 26, had the audience in tears with his emotional ballad.
He changed out of his more toned-down red carpet suit for a spectacular Prince-esque outfit.
The star wore a white floral jumpsuit with white gloves as he sang.
Harry lost out on winning Best British Male Solo Artist to Stormzy earlier in the ceremony.
His performance comes after Harry was mugged at knifepoint while on a night out on Valentine’s day.
He is said to have handed over cash to the thug but was unharmed in the robbery.
A source told the Mirror: “He actually played it pretty cool, quickly giving the assailant cash, keeping himself and the guy calm and getting the situation over with.
“Understandably though it left him very shaken up afterwards.”
A Metropolitan Police spokesperson said: “Police are investigating reports of a knifepoint robbery.
“Officers were contacted on Saturday, 15 February regarding the incident which happened at 23.50hrs on Friday, 14 February.
“It was reported that a man in his 20s was approached by another man and threatened him with a knife.

Harry paid tribute to his late ex-girlfriend with a black ribbon on his lapel.
The singer wore a brown suit with black shoes, a white and blue shirt, and a purple jumper – with the black ribbon.
The presenter dated Harry Styles for three months in 2011 after they met on The X Factor the year before, when she was hosting The Xtra Factor.
