In an announcement no-one saw coming but now it’s here we are throwing all of our weight behind it, Mick Fleetwood has been announced as the new campaign star of Harry Styles’ beauty brand Pleasing.

The 74-year-old drummer and Fleetwood Mac co-founder can be seen in a purple zebra print suit and top hat as he models the brand’s colourful new nail polishes as part of its psychedelic-themed collection Shroom Bloom.

Styles, 28, launched the brand in November, which offers unisex nail polishes, skincare products and branded apparel.

Speaking to Vogue magazine, the former One Direction star described the new face of his brand as a ‘magical man’ and a musical hero.

The singer shared: ‘Mick is someone who brings me – and countless others – great joy. I felt there couldn’t be a better embodiment of Pleasing, or a person who could so naturally capture the wizardry that we love.’

Styles is known for his androgynous style which subverts gender stereotypes, and in 2020 he became the first man to appear solo on the cover of fashion bible Vogue wearing a pale blue lace Gucci ballgown and black tuxedo jacket.

Fleetwood also recalled to the publication how the pair were first introduced through a One Direction meet-and-greet, as his twin daughters had asked to see the singer in concert, and how relatable is that?

The star shared that they had ‘really connected’ as Styles had been brought up with Fleetwood Mac’s extensive back catalogue, and has since gone on to collaborate with band member Stevie Nicks and perform some of the group’s music.

The rocker noted that their connection was ‘driven by music’, but as a person, he found Styles ‘incredibly kind and thoughtful’ and said he gravitated towards his lack of ego despite the fame he was experiencing.

Fleetwood added that he ‘loved every moment’ of shooting the Pleasing campaign, which was set at his home in Maui, Hawaii.

He explained that he had joined the campaign as feels it is an experience which provokes people to think ‘why not’ and allows individuals to express themselves.

Recalling the sense of freedom of his generation, Fleetwood added: ‘But imagine the 60s right now with social media. One might be so bold as to say that slightly naive pipe dream of everyone not being judgmental might spread like wildfire.

‘Being reminded of that premise, I think there’s a huge amount of similarity now asking, “Why not? What gives you the right to close me down?”

‘It’s not confrontational. It’s just, why would you want to do that to anybody or anything? In our time, if someone went to a concert with blue paint all over their face, you go, “How cool is that?” You wouldn’t say one thing or the other.

‘That’s how I’ve always felt. Don’t be judgmental and have fun with it. That’s what Pleasing represents.’
