On the opening night of his world tour beginning in Amsterdam<\/a> on Saturday, global superstar Harry Styles backed a brief pro-Palestinian chant from the crowd.<\/p>\n

The Amsterdam concert was the first of his Together, Together tour, held at the Johan Cruijff Arena.<\/p>\n

Following Styles\u2019 remarks about \u201cchanging the world together,\u201d in between songs, an attendee shouted, \u201cViva, Viva Palestina\u201d (meaning, \u201cLong Live Palestine\u201d), to which Styles replied, \u201cCorrect.\u201d<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the first time the 32-year-old has made any public remarks on the conflict, but one of Styles\u2019 tour charity partners is Choose Love, a humanitarian organization that works with displaced communities around the world, including those from Gaza<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Styles is newly engaged to actor Zoe Kravitz, who is Jewish, and as a teenager, he often tweeted transliterated Hebrew well-wishes for various Jewish holidays.<\/p>\n

While competing on the British talent show The X Factor in 2010, where he rose to stardom, Styles stayed with the Orthodox Jewish Winston family, with whom he became close and considers mentors. In 2014, Styles announced that his New Year\u2019s resolution was to learn Hebrew.<\/p>\n

Saturday\u2019s show was the latest demonstration of pro-Palestine solidarity in the concert space since the October 7, 2023, Hamas<\/a> attack on Israel.<\/p>\n

Some performers have integrated pro-Palestine activism into their concerts by creating large displays with flags and visuals accusing Israel of genocide. Others have called for an end to the war in Gaza, and some have dedicated entire concerts to raising funds for Palestinian charities.<\/p>\n

Other articles, including some who are Jewish, have faced hecklers making pro-Palestine comments who were later removed by security.<\/p>\n

In Britain, a member of the Irish band Kneecap faced terrorism charges for holding a Hezbollah flag, though they were later dropped. Kneecap has been vocally pro-Palestine since they formed in 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On the opening night of his world tour beginning in Amsterdam on Saturday, global superstar Harry Styles backed…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":86642,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[101],"tags":[199,9930,22639,4519,11400,200,24021],"class_list":["post-86641","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-amsterdam","tag-amsterdam","tag-antisemitism","tag-antizionism","tag-concert","tag-harry-styles","tag-netherlands","tag-pop-music"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@dk\/116603514200098090","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86641","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=86641"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/86641\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/86642"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=86641"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=86641"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/dk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=86641"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
