Madison Square Garden Audience Join Harry Styles in Singing “Happy Birthday” to James Corden

Get yourself a friend like Harry Styles. The 28-year-old pop star gathered the strength of thousands of fans in his sold-out gig during his performance in New York City (one of the 15 shows scheduled for his extended residency at Madison Square Garden) to sing a very special and loud “Happy Birthday” to his longtime friend James Corden.

The first line of the song was then sung by Styles proudly into the microphone before he allowed his audience fill the arena with their voices. The Grammy winner yelled, “Friend points!” afterward. The day after the event, Corden, who turned 44, uploaded a video of the entire thing to Instagram.

Since 2015, when the Harry’s House artist first began performing on Corden’s show with his former boy band, ‘One Direction’, the Late Late Show presenter and Styles have become pals. In a radio interview in July, Corden talked openly about his famous friend, saying that Styles smelled like “summer in a bowl” and quipped that he’s “annoyingly tall.”

These two friends are BFF goals for sure!
