All You Need to Know: Harry Styles
Of all the strange endeavors you’d expect Harry Styles to get caught up in, we can bet that you did not see this one coming. The former One Direction star has joined forces with Calm, an app for sleep, meditation, and relaxation that offers sleep stories voiced by a number of top notch celebrities.
Well, all we can say is, what better artist could you choose? The man’s voice is simply husky, honeyed glory. Harry’s first story is set to drop tomorrow, on July 8th.
