As the corporate crowd streamed out of their skyscrapers in a sea of humdrum suits, the Styles fans brought a bit more fun and flair to 34th Street. \u201cAngle your body a little more,\u201d one friend barked as she snapped photos of another beneath the large electronic billboard reading \u201cHARRY STYLES.\u201d \u201cTilt your chin down!\u201d Nearby, pedicabs blasted Styles\u2019s \u201cWatermelon Sugar,\u201d hoping to lure some unsuspecting tourists into paying $40 for a five-minute ride after the show.<\/p>\n
