Harry Styles faces criticism after some fans react negatively to artwork shown on tickets for his ongoing Madison Square Garden residency in New York. Several reports say the ticket imagery appears to depict a yellow car flying above the Empire State Building, which some people link to the events of Sept. 11.
The controversy arises just days before the 25th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terror attacks on Friday. Outlets describe a wave of online backlash, with some commenters questioning the approval process for the ticket design. The reports largely focus on the timing and the perceived connection between the artwork and 9/11, rather than any statement from Styles or his team.
Across the different publications, the core details remain consistent: Styles is in the middle of a multi-night run at Madison Square Garden, and the ticket artwork has become the focus of public dispute in the days leading up to the anniversary.
