Role Model has addressed longstanding jokes online about a supposed rivalry with former One Direction star Harry Styles. He opened up about the friendly banter during a recent podcast appearance.

The 29-year-old, who recently confirmed his relationship with actress Dakota Johnson, sat down for a conversation on the “And the Writer Is” podcast. The topic of Styles came up almost immediately.

When asked directly whether Styles has ever confronted him about their supposed feud, Role Model laughed nervously before answering. He said, as far as he knows, there is genuinely no beef between them.

He then recalled an actual meeting he had had with the Grammy-winning singer, describing the encounter warmly. According to Role Model, Styles came across as lovely and completely unaware of internet culture surrounding him.

He joked that Styles’ total disconnect from social media gives him free rein to joke about their fictional rivalry. Role Model said he could rant for an entire year about their so-called war, and Styles would remain blissfully unaware.

The playful comments quickly caught fans off guard online, with many reacting to the unexpected mention of Styles. One user online expressed pure surprise at the unlikely crossover between the two artists.

Role Model has been generating buzz recently after confirming his relationship with Dakota Johnson. The actress made a surprise vocal appearance on his track “Love I You,” from his new album “Chuck Timely & The Hourglass.”

That surprise feature effectively served as their public relationship reveal, drawing significant attention from fans and media alike. The pairing has since become one of the more talked-about celebrity romances of the summer.

Meanwhile, Harry Styles has been making headlines of his own, linked to rumours of a budding romance with actress Zoe Kravitz. Neither he nor Kravitz has addressed the speculation directly so far.

With both artists currently in the spotlight for their personal lives, Role Model’s lighthearted comments about Styles have added an unexpected but fun crossover moment for fans of both stars.
